CFI-402257 hydrochloride is a highly selective and orally bioavailable TTK/Mps1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.7 nM for TTK in vitro. CFI-402257 hydrochloride has anti-cancer activity[1].
in vivo
CFI-402257 given orally QD shows dose-dependent activity in mice with established tumors from xenografted MDA-MB-231 human TNBC cells and MDA-MB-468 human TNBC cells in mice. CFI-402257 demonstrates antitumor activity in a platinum-resistant PDX model of high-grade serous ovarian cancer[2].
Animal Model:
Xenografted MDA-MB-231 human TNBC cells and MDA-MB-468 human TNBC cells in mice[2].
