Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: BLZ945 is reported as an orally active, potent and selective inhibitor of colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) [4]. It is also brain-penetrant. The compound was designed to deplete pro-tumorigenic tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the tumour microenvironment [4], and has also been reported to inhibit osteoclast CSF1R activity which reduces skeletal related events in metastatic disease [3].
The chemical structure of BLZ945 matches that for the INN compound sotuletinib that was surfaced in WHO Proposed list 125. 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. ✖ |

Bioactivity Comments |
In a kinase panel screen only three interactions with this compound were identified, CSF1R, cKIT and PDGFRβ, but selectivity for CSF1R is >3800-fold [4] (see Supplementary Figure S2). The highly selective nature of this compound limits its off-target activities which is common when targeting this kinase subfamily, so this should increase the interperatability of results from animal studies. |
