Background: Bendamustine is a nitrogen mustard drug indicated for use in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that has progressed during or within six months of treatment with rituximab or a rituximab-containing regimen. Bendamustine is a bifunctional mechlorethamine derivative capable of forming electrophilic alkyl groups that covalently bond to other molecules. Through this function as an alkylating agent, bendamustine causes intra- and inter-strand crosslinks between DNA bases resulting in cell death. It is active against both active and quiescent cells, although the exact mechanism of action is unknown.

Indication: Bendamustine is indicated for use in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that has progressed during or within six months of treatment with rituximab or a rituximab-containing regimen.

Associated Conditions: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Follicular Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Refractory, Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma, Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma, Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (WM), Recurrent multiple myeloma, Refractory indolent B cell non-hodgkin lymphoma
