QLT0267 is an inhibitor targeting integrin-linked kinase (ILK; IC50= 26 nM), showing over 10-fold selectivity against cyclin-dependent kinases 1, 2, and 5 (Cdk1, Cdk2, and Cdk5), and over 1,000-fold selectivity against C-terminal Src kinase (CSK), DNA-PK, Pim-1, Akt, PKC, and casein kinase 2 (CK2) at a concentration of 10 mg/ml. This compound effectively inhibits the proliferation of NPA187 papillary thyroidcancer cells with an IC50 of approximately 3 µM and induces apoptosis in NPA187, DRO, and K4 cancer cell lines. In vivo studies reveal that QLT0267, administered at 100 mg/kg, significantly reduces tumor growth in a DRO mouse xenograft model and diminishes both tumor volume and intratumoral vascularization in a U87MG glioblastoma mouse xenograft model, showcasing its potential for therapeutic applications in cancer treatment.
AD57, as polypharmacological cancer therapeutic, is designed to regulate multiple targets related to cancer blocks the receptor tyrosine kinase RET in Drosophila (IC50: 2 nM). AD57 effectively suppresses tyrosine kinase RET, weakens the activity of numero
CUDC-907 mesylate is a small molecule inhibitor of histone deacetylase and PI3 kinase developed by Curis. It is investigated in clinical trials for the treatment of relapsed or refractory lymphomas, thyroidcancer, multiple myeloma, breast cancer and other malignancies.
Vandetanib Fumarate is an orally available tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Vandetanib Fumarate works by blocking RET (REarranged during Transfection), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3), and epidermal growth factor receptor and to a
GNE-8525 is a potent and selective pan-TRK inhibitor. GNE-8525 demonstrated potent antiproliferation activity with IC50 = 0.003 μM. In a tumor xenograft model derived from the KM12 cell line, GNE-8525 demonstrated in vivo antitumor efficacy when administered at ascending doses twice daily (bid) for 14 days in rats. Deregulated kinase activities of tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) family members have been shown to be associated with tumorigenesis and poor prognosis in a variety of cancer types. In particular, several chromosomal rearrangements involving TRKA have been reported in colorectal, papillary thyroid, glioblastoma, melanoma, and lung tissue that are believed to be the key oncogenic driver in these tumors.
