Sunitinib inhibitor selectivity

The KINOMEscan selectivity scores for a selection of the marketed kinase inhibitors demonstrate the potential for the type II inhibitors imatinib 7, sorafenib 8 and lapatinib 10 to display higher selectivity than the type I inhibitors sunitinib 3 and dasatinib 4, especially when only higher affinity off-target interactions are considered (S(100 nM) scores). It can also be seen that, despite their potential to inhibit multiple kinase family members, it is possible to achieve good levels of selectivity with type I inhibitors ([Pg.83]
