Brivanib

Brivanib is an ATP-competitive inhibitor against human VEGFR2 and FGFR with IC50 of 25 nM and 148 nM, respectively.

ChEBI: Brivanib is a secondary alcohol resulting from the hydrolysis of the carboxylic ester group of brivanib alaninate. It is a dual VEGFR-2/FGFR-1 kinase inhibitor whose alanine prodrug, brivanib alaninate is currently under development as an oral agent for the treatment of cancer. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, an EC 2.7.10.1 (receptor protein-tyrosine kinase) inhibitor, an angiogenesis inhibitor, an apoptosis inducer, a fibroblast growth factor receptor antagonist and a drug metabolite. It is a pyrrolotriazine, a fluoroindole, a diether, an aromatic ether and a secondary alcohol.

brivanib is an atp competitive inhibitor of human vegfr-2 with ic50 value of 25nm [1].brivanib is a selective rtk inhibitor that targets signaling via vegfr2 and 3, and fgfr1, 2 and 3. targeting both vegf and fgf signaling pathways inhibits tumor growth in rt2 mice, with vegf signaling predominating in initiation of tumor angiogenesis, currently, brivanib therapy is being evaluated in phase iii
