Flurbiprofen analog compounds having an amino acid derivatized at the flurbiprofen alkanoic acid carboxyl group and terminating at an ester or amide group are effective in inhibiting cancer cells in vitro and inhibiting the growth of cancers in viva. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are particularly useful for the treatment of lung, pancreatic and head and neck cancers.
