ENPP1 contributes to establishing an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by blocking the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling, which is critical in antitumor immunity. The inhibition of ENPP1 is an emerging strategy under exploration for cancer immunotherapy.
The next-generation farnesyl transferase inhibitor KO-2806 is currently in phase I clinical development at Kura Oncology Inc. for the treatment of patients with solid tumors, including non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer (CRC).
