Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Industry Development Co. Ltd. has disclosed kinesin-like protein KIF18A inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Nanjing Synnocare Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. has synthesized prodrugs of kinesin-like protein KIF18A inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
At the recent AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics, researchers from Aurigene Oncology Ltd. presented the discovery and clinical characterization of novel macrocyclic KIF18A inhibitors.
KIF18A is a kinesin motor protein that moves toward the plus-end of spindle microtubules during mitosis. Inhibition of KIF18A disrupts spindle microtubule dynamics and chromosome alignment, selectively inducing mitotic catastrophe in chromosomally unstable cancer cells while sparing normal cells.
F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. and Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. have divulged kinesin-like protein KIF18A inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Convalife Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. and Zhejiang Convalife Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. have discovered sulfanilamide compounds acting as kinesin-like protein KIF18A inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, inflammatory disorders and ciliopathy.
