    inhibits proteasomes to treat multiple myeloma and lymphoma

    Bortezomib, also known by the brand name Velcade, is a medication used primarily to treat multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma. It works by inhibiting proteasomes, which are enzyme complexes that break down proteins in cells, thereby causing cancer cells to die. This targeted action helps to control the growth and spread of cancerous cells.
