CAS 606143-52-6: Selumetinib
Description:Selumetinib is a small molecule inhibitor primarily known for its role as a targeted therapy in cancer treatment, particularly for tumors with mutations in the RAS signaling pathway. It specifically inhibits the activity of MEK1 and MEK2, which are key components of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, thereby disrupting cell proliferation and survival signals in cancer cells. Selumetinib is characterized by its ability to selectively target these kinases, leading to reduced tumor growth in certain types of cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer and neurofibromatosis type 1. The compound is typically administered orally and has been studied in various clinical trials to assess its efficacy and safety profile. Its chemical structure includes a sulfonamide group, contributing to its pharmacological properties. As with many targeted therapies, selumetinib may have specific side effects, which can include gastrointestinal disturbances and skin reactions, necessitating careful monitoring during treatment. Overall, selumetinib represents a significant advancement in the field of oncology, particularly for patients with specific genetic tumor profiles.
