DS-7423

DS-7423 is a dual PI3K and mTOR inhibitor, with IC50 values of 15.6 nM and 34.9 nM for PI3Kα and mTOR, respectively, and exhibits anti-tumor activity[1][2]. It increases TP53 expression, the level of p-TP53 on Ser-46, and induces apoptosis-related TP53 target genes (TP53AIP1 and PUMA) in OCCC cells[1]. DS-7423 also inhibits other isoforms of class I PI3K with IC50 values of 1,143 nM for PI3Kβ, 249 nM for PI3Kγ, and 262 nM for PI3Kδ[2]. [1]. Katsutoshi Oda, et al.
