PBE-AMF is a prodrug that activates H2O2 and exhibits anticancer activity. It impedes tumor proliferation by inhibiting DNA synthesis, reducing ATP levels, inducing cell death (apoptosis), and blocking the cell cycle. PBE-AMF effectively and selectively inhibits the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells (IC50=6.4 μM) while sparing non-cancerous MCF-10A cells.
