Vadimezan

• Description:

  Vadimezan (DMXAA), the tumor vascular disrupting agent (tumor-VDA), is a murine agonist of the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and also a potent inducer of type I IFNs and other cytokines. Vadimezan is unable to activate human STING. Vadimezan has anti-influenza virus H1N1-PR8 activities.
