Semaxinib reversibly inhibits ATP binding to the tyrosine kinase domain of VEGFR2, potentially inhibiting VEGF-stimulated endothelial cell migration and proliferation, thereby reducing tumor microvasculature.

PAF (C16) is a potent MAPK and MEK ERK activator that induces increased vascular permeability. PAF (C16) (PAF (C16)) is a platelet-activating factor, a phospholipid-derived mediator and a ligand for PAF G protein-coupled receptor (PAFR). PAF (C16) has shown anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory activity in vitro, inhibiting Caspase-dependent apoptosis by interacting with its receptor (PAF-R) to perform cell signaling.

Suramin Sodium Salt (BAY-205) is a sodium salt form of suramin, a polysulphonated naphthylurea with potential antineoplastic activity. Suramin blocks the binding of various growth factors, including insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), epidermal growth factor (EGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and tumor growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), to their receptors, thereby inhibiting endothelial cell proliferation and migration. This agent also inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)- and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-induced angiogenesis; retroviral reverse transcriptase; uncoupling of G-proteins from receptors; topoisomerases; cellular folate transport; and steroidogenesis.

EMD-503982 is a potential Factor Xa and Factor VIIa inhibitor with potential anticancer and antitumor activity for the study of thromboembolic and neurological disorders.

A 83-01 (ALK5 Inhibitor IV) is an inhibitor of the TGF-β type I receptors ALK5, ALK4, and ALK7 (IC50=12 45 7.5 nM). A 83-01 promotes the reprogramming of mouse fibroblasts into iPSCs. A 83-01 can be used in organoid cultures.

TRC051384 is a heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) inducer that reduces stroke-associated neuronal damage and increases survival in a rat model of transient ischemic stroke, activates heat shock factor-1 and leads to elevated molecular chaperone and anti-inflammatory activity, and enhances Hsp72 expression in neurons and glial cells.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-active molecule conjugate (ADC) with anticancer and antitumor activity, which is composed of a monoclonal antibody targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) coupled to a topoisomerase I inhibitor (DXd). Trastuzumab deruxtecan has an improved effect on the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer and gastric cancer.

R-7050 (TNF-α Antagonist III) is a tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) antagonist that exhibits heightened selectivity for TNFα.

OSI-906 (Linsitinib (OSI-906)) is an orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) with potential antineoplastic activity. Linsitinib selectively inhibits IGF-1R, which may result in the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and the induction of tumor cell apoptosis. Overexpressed in a variety of human cancers, IGF-1R stimulates cell proliferation, enables oncogenic transformation, and suppresses apoptosis.

Omaveloxolone (RTA-408) (RTA-408) is a synthetic triterpenoid that activates the cytoprotective transcription factor Nrf2 and inhibits NF-κB signaling. Phase 2.

Amivantamab (JNJ-61186372) is a humanized antibody that recognizes epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and MET proto-oncogene (MET), with anticancer and anti-tumor activities, preventing ligand binding to EGFR and MET and receptor dimerization that inhibits downstream signal transduction. Amivantamab can induce Fc-dependent endocytosis of macrophages and antibody-dependent cytotoxicity of natural killer cells, and can be used to study metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
