Abstract
Abstract Compounds with high anti-tumor activity and of moderate toxicity are described which are constituted by tripeptides formed from dichlorodiethylaminophenylalanine, para-fluorophenylalanine and methionine bonded together by peptide links. The tripeptides of the invention are particularly useful in the treatment of malignant tumors.
