AZ304 is potent dual BRAF inhibitor. Is a combination of MEK and B-raf inhibitors for treatment of cancer.
AZ304 is a synthetic inhibitor targeting wild-type and V600E mutant BRAF with IC50 of 79 nM and 38 nM, respectively. It also inhibits CRAF, p38 and CSF1R with IC50 below 100 nM.
AZ304 inhibited wild-type BRAF and CRAF, BRAF in vitro.
In both RKO and Caco-2 tumor models, administration of AZ304 alone or in combination with Cetuximab resulted in antitumor activity without apparent toxic effects (regardless of BRAF mutation).
