Comment: Cenisertib is an Aurora kinase A/B inhibitor that was developed for anti-cancer potential [1]. We show the compound with chirality as specified by the IUPAC name submitted to the WHO for INN registration. It is compound 60a as claimed in patent WO2005118544A2 [3].
Cenisertib has improved aqueous solubility compared to the dual inhibitor ABT-348 (ilorasertib). Preclinical anti-proliferative efficacy of cenisertib has been demonstrated in a wide range of xenograft models [4] and cell lines [2].

Bioactivity Comments
Cenisertib inhibits Aurora B activity in cells (as determined by the induction of polyploidy and apoptosis in NCI-H1229 NSCLC cells) with an IC50 of 1 nM [1]. KDR (VEGFR2) activity is inhibited in NIH3T3 cells stably transfected with full length human KDR with an IC50 of 19 nM. In a kinome selectivity panel cenisertib exhibits a TR-FRET-determined Ki <5 nM for 12 kinases and <5-10 nM for 11 kinases [1]. In vitro anti-proliferative potency of cenisertib (cpd 60a) against a range of cancer cell lines is provided in Table 2 of WO2005118544A2 [3].
