Galunisertib (LY2157299) is an orally active multikinase inhibitor (IC50 in nM = 80/ALK4, 170/TGFβR1, 210/TGβ?R2, 190/MINK (MAP4K6), 220/RIP2 (RIPK2), 260/CK1α, 280/MEKKK4, 310/GAK, 400/CK1ε, 470/ALK6 (BMPR1B), 500/B-raf, 510/TNIK) mostly cited for its ALK4 & TGFbeta (TGFβ) receptors (TGFβ-RI (ALK5) & TGFβ-RII) inhibitory activity and anticancer efficacy in vitro (0.1-10 μM) and in vivo (20-100 mg/kg p.o.; mice).
Orally active multikinase inhibitor best known for its ALK4, TGFbeta receptors TGFβ-RI (ALK5) & TGFβ-RII activity and anticancer efficacy in vitro and in vivo.
Galunisertib (Gal) is a transforming growth factor (TGF-β) blockade which is being investigated as a potential tumor immunotherapy candidate drug in clinical trials. However, primary or acquired resistance is often found in the recruited cancer patients, which limits its clinical

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling regulates a wide range of biological processes. TGF-β plays an important role in tumorigenesis and contributes to the hallmarks of cancer, including tumor proliferation, invasion and metastasis, inflammation, angiogenesis, and escape of immune surveillance. There
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 Abs, have shown efficacy for the treatment of various cancers. Although research has actively sought to develop new ICIs and immunomodulators, no efficient in vitro assay system is available to evaluate
Tumor⁻stroma interactions are of key importance for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) progression. Our aim was to investigate whether cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and mast cells (MC) affected the sensitivity of PDAC cells to gemcitabine/nabpaclitaxel (GEM/NAB). For this purpose, the combination

Human xenografts Calu6 (non-small cell lung cancer) and MX1 (breast cancer) were implanted subcutaneously in nude mice and LY2157299, a new type I receptor TGF-beta kinase antagonist, was administered orally. Plasma levels of LY2157299, percentage of phosphorylated Smad2,3 (pSmad) in
