PF-03758309 (hydrochloride)

Uses

PF-3758309 (PF-03758309) hydrochloride is a potent, orally available, and reversible ATP-competitive inhibitor of PAK4 (Kd= 2.7 nM; Ki=18.7 nM). PF-3758309 hydrochloride has the expected cellular functions of a PAK4 inhibitor: inhibition of anchorage-independent growth, induction of apoptosis, cytoskeletal remodeling, and inhibition of proliferation[1][2][3].
