Drug intelligence / Profile preview
CEP-37440 is an orally available, small molecule dual kinase inhibitor that selectively targets both anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and focal adhesion kinase (FAK, also known as PTK2). By inhibiting these kinases, CEP-37440 disrupts ALK and FAK-mediated signal transduction pathways, leading to inhibition of tumor cell growth in cells overexpressing these targets. ALK is a receptor tyrosine kinase implicated in various tumors due to gene rearrangements and dysregulation. FAK is a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase involved in integrin signaling, promoting tumor cell migration, proliferation, survival, and angiogenesis. Preclinical studies indicate that CEP-37440 has favorable metabolic stability and pharmacokinetics and can penetrate the brain. It has been investigated for the treatment of solid tumors[1][2][3][4][5][6].
