4-[4-[[[[4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]amino]carbonyl]amino]phenoxy]-N-methyl-2-pyridinecarboxamide, BAY 43-9006, BAY43-9006, N-[4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-N′-[4-[2-(N-methylcarbamoyl)-4-pyridyloxy]phenyl]urea
Sorafenib (BAY 43-9006) is an orally active kinase inhibitor that exerts broad-spectrum anticancer efficacy in vitro and in vivo via targeting b-Raf, c-Raf (Raf-1), as well as several receptor tyrosine kinases involved in neovascularization and tumor progression, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors 2/3 (VEGFR-2/Flk-1/KDR, VEGFR-3), platelet-derived growth factor receptor-beta (PDGFR-ß), Flt-3, c-KIT, FGFR-1 (Flt-2) and RET.

Mutations affecting the Wnt/β‑catenin pathway have been identified in 26‑40% of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases. Aberrant activation of this pathway leads to uncontrolled cell proliferation and survival. Thus, identifying Wnt/β‑catenin pathway inhibitors may benefit a subset of patients with HCC.
Hepatocellular carcinoma frequently recurs after surgery, necessitating personalized clinical approaches based on tumor avatar models. However, location-dependent oxygen concentrations resulting from the dual hepatic vascular supply drive the inherent heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment, which presents challenges in developing an
The RAS/RAF signaling pathway is an important mediator of tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis. The novel bi-aryl urea BAY 43-9006 is a potent inhibitor of Raf-1, a member of the RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway. Additional characterization showed that BAY 43-9006 suppresses

The drug design and discovery efforts described in the previous section led to the development of a novel, small molecule Raf-1 kinase inhibitor, BAY 43-9006, which belongs to a class that can be broadly described as bis-aryl ureas (Figure 1).

Medullary and papillary thyroid carcinomas are often associated with oncogenic activation of the RET tyrosine kinase. We evaluated whether the biaryl urea BAY 43-9006, which is known to inhibit several other tyrosine kinases, blocks RET kinase function and oncogenic activity.
