Scientists discovered this after observing thousands of compounds to find new drugs.

Tests have shown that leflunomide, which helps reduce the growth of tumor smoke in mice, is similar in human melanoma skin cancer.

Its effect is even more potent when leflunomide is combined with the anti-melanoma drug PLX4720.

Scientists at the University of East Anglia (USA) said the treatment of melanoma skin cancer using this remedy will be realized in five years.

Leflunomide has long been recognized as a safe use in humans and accelerates the treatment process.
