T-1840383 is an inhibitor of VEGF-induced VEGFR-2 phosphorylation and HGF-induced c-Met phosphorylation in vascular endothelial cells and cancer epithelial cells.
Foretinib phosphate is an orally bioavailable small molecule with potential antineoplastic activity. MET VEGFR2 inhibitor GSK1363089 binds to and selectively inhibits hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor c-MET and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), which may result in the inhibition of tumor angiogenesis, tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. The proto-oncogene c-MET has been found to be over-expressed in a variety of cancers.
KRC-108 is a multiple kinase inhibitor. KRC-108 is a potent inhibitor of Ron, Flt3 and TrkA as well as c-Met. KRC-108 inhibited oncogenic c-Met M1250T and Y1230D more strongly than wild type c-Met. The anti-proliferative activity of KRC-108 was measured by performing a cytotoxicity assay on a panel of cancer cell lines. The GI(50) values (i.e., 50% inhibition of cell growth) for KRC-108 ranged from 0.01 to 4.22 μM for these cancer cell lines. KRC-108 was also effective for the inhibition of tumor growth in human HT29 colorectal cancer and NCI-H441 lung cancer xenograft models in athymic BALB c nu nu mice. This molecule should serve as a useful lead for inhibitors targeting kinases and may lead to new therapeutics for the treatment of cancer.
