Ravoxertinib hydrochloride

Ravoxertinib hydrochloride (GDC-0994 hydrochloride) is an orally bioavailable inhibitor selective for ERK kinase activity with IC50 of 6.1 nM and 3.1 nM for ERK1 and ERK2, respectively. ERK2|3.1 nM (IC50)|ERK1|6.1 nM (IC50)|p-RSK|12 nM (IC50)

Ravoxertinib also inhibits p90RSK with IC50 of 12 nM[1]. Ravoxertinib is highly selective for ERK1 and ERK2, with biochemical potency of 1.1 nM and 0.3 nM, respectively[2].

In CD-1 mice, a 10 mg/kg oral dose of Ravoxertinib is sufficient to achieve the desired target coverage for at least 8 h[1]. Daily, oral dosing of Ravoxertinib results in significant single-agent activity in multiple in vivo cancer models, including KRAS-mutant and BRAF-mutant human xenograft tumors in mice[2].
