Axitinib | Inlyta | AG-013736|AG013736 | KIT Inhibitor 57 PDGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 30 VEGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 36 | Inlyta (axitinib) inhibits the VEGFRs, PDGFR, and KIT, potentially resulting in decreased angiogenesis and reduced tumor growth (PMID: 16027439, PMID: 25709499). Inlyta (axitinib) is approved for renal cell carcinoma (FDA.gov). |
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). |
