OPB-31121 did not inhibit activities of kinases including JFKs and SFKs and its exact mechanism of action is under investigation; however, it induced significant growth inhibition in a wide range of hematopoietic malignant cells. Investigation among various cell lines indicated that this compound was particularly effective against multiple myeloma and Burkitt lymphoma, and leukemia harboring BCR–ABL,
