MAPK/ERK Pathway

LXH254 is a potent CRAF inhibitor extracted from patent WO2018051306A1, Compound A. LXH254 also is a potent BRAF inhibitor. IC50 & Target: CRAF, BRAF^[1] In Vitro: LXH254 (Compound A) is an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-competitive inhibitor of BRAF (also referred to herein as b-RAF or b-Raf) and CRAF (also referred to herein as c-RAF or c- Raf) protein kinases. Throughout the present disclosure, LXH254 is also referred to as a c-RAF (or CRAF) inhibitor or a C-RAF/c-Raf kinase inhibitor. In cell-based assays, LXH254 has demonstrated anti-proliferative activity in cell lines that contain a variety of mutations that activate MAPK signaling. Moreover, LXH254 is a Type 2 ATP -competitive inhibitor of both B-Raf and C-Raf that keeps the kinase pocket in an inactive conformation, thereby reducing the paradoxical activation seen with many B-Raf inhibitors, and blocking mutant RAS-driven signaling and cell proliferation^[1]. In Vivo: Treatment with LXH254 (Compound A) generates tumor regression in several KRAS-mutant models including the NSCLC-derived Calu-6 (KRAS Q61K) and NCI-H358 (KRAS G12C). LXH254 exhibits efficacy in numerous MAPK-driven human cancer cell lines and in xenograft tumors representing model tumors harboring human lesions in KRAS, NRAS and BRAF oncogenes^[1].
