UNC2025 | UNC-2025|UNC 2025 | FLT3 Inhibitor 69 MERTK Inhibitor 13 | UNC2025 inhibits FLT3 and MERTK, which may result in decreased growth of MER-dependent and FLT3-dependent tumor cells (PMID: 25068800, PMID: 30482852). | |
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). |

BRAF mutant | melanoma | predicted - sensitive | UNC2025 + Vemurafenib | Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, the combination therapy of UNC2025 and Zelboraf (vemurafenib) resulted in greater inhibition of colony formation and apoptotic induction in melanoma cells harboring a BRAF mutation in culture and led to a higher degree of tumor growth inhibition in a patient derived xenograft (PDX) model of melanoma with a BRAF mutation when compared to either therapy alone (PMID: 30482852). | 30482852 |
