Factor D inhibitor 6 is a potent, highly selective, orally active compound that specifically inhibits the activity of factor D (FD). It demonstrates an IC50 of 30 nM and a Kd of 6 nM. Notably, Factor D inhibitor 6 does not exhibit any inhibitory effects against factor B, classical and lectin complement-pathway activation, nor does it interfere with a broad array of receptors, ion channels, kinases, and proteases.
Potent EGFR-kinase inhibitor (IC50 = 0.7 nM). Displays >3000-fold selectivity against a panel of serine/threonine kinases. Reduces metastasis and angiogenesis in a mouse model of pancreatic cancer.
