CHS-828

Description

CHS-828 is a pyridyl cyanoguanidine anti-tumor agent that has been identified as a competitive inhibitor of Nampt as well as an inhibitor of NF-κB pathway activity. CHS-828 has potent cytotoxic effects in human breast (IC₅₀ = 7.3 nM) and lung cancer (IC₅₀ = 0.5 nM) cells both in vitro and in vivo. In nude mice bearing human tumor xenografts, CHS-828, at 20-50 mg/kg/day, inhibits the growth of MCF-7 breast cancer tumors and induces regression of NYH small cell lung cancer tumors.
