Belinostat is a cancer medication that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body.

Belinostat is used to treat peripheral T-cell lymphoma that has relapsed or has not responded to other treatments.

Belinostat was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on an "accelerated" basis. In clinical studies, non-small cell lung tumors responded to belinostat. However, it has not been shown that belinostat can improve symptoms or lengthen survival time.

Emapalumab is used together with a medicine called dexamethasone to treat hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a rare disease that is sometimes inherited. HLH causes your immune system to attack healthy blood cells, which can lead to serious or life-threatening side effects on your spleen or liver. Emapalumab is for use in adults and children as young as newborn.

Emapalumab is given after other treatments did not work or have stopped working.
