Synonyms: MRTX-0902
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: MRTX0902 is an inhibitor of the SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (SOS1) that is intended to target the RAS pathway in KRAS positive tumours. It ws developed by Mirati Therapeutics and its chemical structure was disclosed at the AACR spring meeting in 2022. Full details were published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry in July 2022 [3]. MRTX0902 disrupts the protein-protein interaction between SOS1 and KRAS, it is orally bioavailable and can cross the blood-brain barrier. SOS1 is a key activator of KRAS function, so inhibiting their interaction is being explored as novel mechanism to combat KRAS-driven cancers [1-2].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
