PLX4720 | PLX-4720|PLX 4720 | BRAF Inhibitor 25 | PLX4720 is a 7-azaindole derivative and RAF kinase inhibitor with greater affinity for BRAF V600E than BRAF wild-type, which may induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and lead to tumor growth inhibition and regression (PMID: 18287029). | |
Sorafenib | Nexavar | BAY 43-9006 | CSF1R Inhibitor 28 FLT3 Inhibitor 69 KIT Inhibitor 57 PDGFR-beta Inhibitor 14 RAF Inhibitor (Pan) 28 RET Inhibitor 53 VEGFR2 Inhibitor 37 | Nexavar (sorafenib) is a multikinase inhibitor with activity against several kinases, including RAF kinases, VEGFR2, VEGFR3, PDGFR-beta, KIT, FLT3, RET, and CSF1R, potentially resulting in decreased tumor growth (PMID: 18445656, PMID: 15466206, PMID: 21517818). Nexavar (sorafenib) is FDA approved for metastatic differentiated thyroid carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and renal cell carcinoma (FDA.gov). |

BRAF V600E | thyroid cancer | sensitive | PLX4720 + Sorafenib | Preclinical - Cell line xenograft | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with the combination of PLX4720 and Nexavar (sorafenib) inhibited proliferation of thyroid cancer cell lines harboring BRAF V600E in culture and resulted in greater tumor growth inhibition than PLX4720 alone in a cell line xenograft model (PMID: 38795180). | 38795180 |
