Thieno[2,3-c]pyridine-3-carboxamide, 2-[(2-chlorobenzoyl)amino]-6-[[(2-chlorophenyl)amino]thioxomethyl]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-

ADTL-EI1712 is a dual inhibitor of ERK1 and ERK5 (IC50s = 40.43 and 64.5 nM, respectively).1 It reduces ERK1 and ERK5 activity by 93.5% and 89.4%, respectively, but also inhibits ERK2 activity by 92.7%, in a panel of 100 kinases at 1 μM. ADTL-EI1712 inhibits proliferation of HL-60 and MKN74, but not HeLa, cancer cells (IC50s = 1.26, 2.55, and >50 μM, respectively). It reduces tumor growth and intratumor phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and ERK5 in an MKN74 mouse xenograft model when administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg per day.
