Genmus is a chemotherapy medication used in the treatment of certain cancers, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). It belongs to the class of drugs known as alkylating agents and is available as an injection for intravenous use. Genmus works by damaging the DNA of cancer cells, which prevents them from dividing and leads to their destruction.
