Tipifarnib | Zarnestra|R115777 | Farnesyltransferase Inhibitor 4 | Zarnestra (tipifarnib) is a farnesyltransferase inhibitor, which alters post-translational modification and activation of Ras proteins, and may result in decreased tumor cell proliferation and reduced tumor growth (PMID: 11196150, PMID: 25323927, PMID: 32557577). | |
Ulixertinib | BVD-523|BVD 523|BVD523 | ERK Inhibitor (pan) 21 | Ulixertinib (BVD-523) inhibits both ERK 1 and 2, thereby preventing the activation of ERK-mediated signal transduction pathways and resulting in growth inhibition (PMID: 28939558). |
