checkpoint kinase (chk)

Monalizumab is a novel immune checkpoint inhibitor targeting natural killer cell population 2A (NKG2A). Monalizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody against NKG2A that induces IFN-γ production, thereby activating natural killer cell function. Monalizumab has antitumor activity and can be used to study neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

BML-277 (C 3742) is a selective checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) inhibitor.

SAR-020106 is a potent, ATP-competitive, and selective CHK1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 13.3 nmol/L on the isolated human enzyme.

SCH900776 (MK-8776) is an agent targeting cell cycle checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) with potential radiosensitization and chemosensitization activities.

Prexasertib (LY2606368) is a selective checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1) inhibitor (Ki 0.9 nM, IC50<1 nM). Prexasertib causes double-stranded DNA breaks and replication mutations, leading to apoptosis. Prexasertib has antitumor activity.

Prexasertib dihydrochloride (LY2606368) is an ATP-competitive CHK1 inhibitor (Ki: 0.9 nmol/L). in the cell-free assay, its IC50 values are 8 nM and 9 nM for CHK2 and RSK, respectively.

PF 477736 (PF-736,PF-00477736) is a specifc, effective and ATP-competitive Chk1 inhibitor (Ki: 0.49 nM ) and also inhibits FGFR3, Aurora-A, VEGFR2, Flt3, Fms (CSF1R), Ret and Yes.

Rabusertib (IC-83) is an inhibitor of the cell cycle checkpoint kinase 1 (chk1) with potential chemopotentiating activity. Rabusertib has been used in trials studying the treatment of Cancer, Solid Tumors, Advanced Cancer, Pancreatic Neoplasms, and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

AZD-7762, an effective and specific inhibitor of Chk1(IC50=5 nM), is equally potent against Chk2 and less potent against CAM, Yes, Fyn, Lyn, Hck and Lck.

CHIR-124 is an effective Chk1 inhibitor (IC50: 0.3 nM). It has 2, 000-fold selectivity against Chk2, 500- to 5, 000-fold less activity against Cdc2 and CDK2/4.

CCT245737 is an orally active, selective Chk1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.3 nM, and is >1,000-fold selective over CHK2 and CDK1.

GDC-0575 (ARRY-575) is a highly-selective oral small-molecule Chk1 inhibitor(IC50 of 1.2 nM).
