2'-Fluoro-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-butanamide (2'F-4HB) is a small molecule that has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer tissue by binding to the viral proteins in the cancer cells. 2'F-4HB is a potential therapy for cancer and leukemia, because it inhibits the growth of tumor cells and their metastasis. It also inhibits the production of growth factors in lung alveolar epithelial cells, which may be due to its ability to activate these cells. In vitro studies have shown that 2'F-4HB can cause cancerous cell death through inhibition of DNA synthesis and protein synthesis. This compound also has antiviral properties against HIV, HSV, and HPV viruses. Further studies are needed to determine whether this drug has any side effects or toxicity.
