Sulanemadlin (development code ALRN-6924) is an experimental drug for the treatment of cancer.[1] It is under development by Aileron Therapeutics, and has been studied in clinical trials for myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia.[2]
Sulanemadlin is a stapled peptide that mimics the N-terminal domain of p53, a tumor suppressor protein. As such, it binds to MDM2 and MDMX, leading to tumor cell apoptosis.[3]
