Preferred Label : PI3K-alpha Inhibitor HS-10352;
NCIt synonyms : PI3K p110alpha Inhibitor HS-10352;
NCIt definition : An orally bioavailable, small molecule inhibitor of the class I phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate
3-kinase (PI3K) catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA; PI3K p110alpha), with potential antineoplastic
activity. Upon oral administration, PI3K-alpha inhibitor HS-10352 selectively targets,
binds to and inhibits wild-type PIK3CA and its mutated forms, in the PI3K/Akt (protein
kinase B)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. This results in both apoptosis
and growth inhibition in PIK3CA-expressing tumor cells. By specifically targeting
PIK3CA, this agent may be more efficacious and less toxic than pan-PI3K inhibitors.
Dysregulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway is often found in solid tumors and results
in the promotion of tumor cell growth, survival, and resistance to chemo- and radio-therapy.
PIK3CA, one of the most frequently mutated oncogenes, encodes the p110-alpha catalytic
subunit of the class I PI3K.;
