Dasatinib

Dasatinib (BMS-354825) is a small molecule inhibitor of both the SRC and BCR/ABL tyrosine kinases, with IC50's for the isolated kinases of 0.55 and 3.0 nM, respectively. Dasatinib also inhibits Lyn (IC50 = 8.5 nM) and Src (IC50 = 3.0 nM) kinase activities in vitro using 0.1 mg/mL poly (Glu4-Tyr) as the substrate. Dasatinib has greater potency than imatinib mesylate and has activity against the majority of kinase mutations in imatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia.
