Preclinical analysis reveals DFMO inhibits metastasis and induces ferroptosis in ewing sarcoma, suggesting new therapeutic avenues.

DFMO significantly inhibits ewing sarcoma metastasis and alters cell growth patterns.
In vitro, DFMO led to cell cycle arrest and decreased tumor formation in 30% of cases, indicating its efficacy.
RNA sequencing results highlight gene expression changes consistent with ferroptosis due to polyamine depletion.
This preclinical evidence supports the testing of DFMO as a preventive treatment for metastatic ewing sarcoma.

Offenbacher et al. (2025) studied this question.
