Cladribine is cytotoxic to resting or proliferating lymphocytes.{62558} It inhibits RNA synthesis and induces DNA strand breaks in resting human peripheral blood lymphocytes when used at concentrations of 1 and 10 µM.{21539} Cladribine induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase and apoptosis in U266, RPMI-8226, and MM.1S multiple myeloma cells in a concentration-dependent manner.{62559} It reduces tumor growth in HT-29 colon cancer, RL lymphoma, and RPMI-8226 multiple myeloma mouse xenograft models when administered at a dose of 12 mg/kg.{62560} Formulations containing cladribine have been used in the treatment of hairy cell leukemia.
