AZ628

AZ628 is a potent tyrosine protein inhibitor for wild-type CRAF and BRAF V600E with IC50 of 29 and 34 nM, respectively. AZ628 inhibits activities of preactivated wild-type B-Raf with an IC50 of 105, respectively. AZ628 also suppreses activities of a number of tyrosine protein kinases such as VEGFR2, DDR2, Lyn and Flt1. AZ628 also prevents anchorage-dependent and -independent growth, gives rise to cell cycle arrest, and triggers apoptosis in colon and melanoma cell lines harboring B-RafV600E mutation. AZ628 is antiangiogenic based on inhibition of VEGFR2.
