Lifirafenib | BGB-283 | BRAF Inhibitor 25 EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 62 | Lifirafenib (BGB-283) is a dual RAF kinase and EGFR inhibitor, which may lead to decreased tumor cell proliferation and reduced growth of tumors with activation of BRAF and/or EGFR (PMID: 26208524, PMID: 32182156). | |
Vemurafenib | Zelboraf | RO5185426|PLX4032 | RAF Inhibitor (Pan) 28 | Zelboraf (vemurafenib) inhibits BRAF V600E, wild-type BRAF, ARAF, and CRAF (PMID: 20179705), which may result in an inhibition of the MAPK signaling pathway resulting in a reduction of tumor cell proliferation (PMID: 20823850). Zelboraf (vemurafenib) is FDA approved for BRAF V600E-mutant melanoma and for BRAF V600-positive Erdheim-Chester disease (FDA.gov). |
