Preferred Label : MALT1 Inhibitor ONO-7018;
NCIt definition : An orally bioavailable inhibitor of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation
protein 1 (MALT1), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration,
MALT1 inhibitor ONO-7018 targets, binds to, and inhibits the activity of MALT1. This
inhibits MALT1-dependent CARD11-BCL10-MALT1 (CBM) signaling, thereby inhibiting the
immunosuppressive function of regulatory T-cells (Tregs) and upregulating the production
of interferon-gamma (IFN-g) by Tregs in the tumor microenvironment (TME). This results
in the inhibition of Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription
(JAK/STAT) signaling and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB) signaling, induces apoptosis,
and inhibits tumor cell proliferation. MALT1 belongs to the caspase family of proteases
and is the active component of the CBM signaling complex. It plays an essential role
in mediating the suppressive function of Tregs, and is overactivated in certain solid
tumors and lymphomas.;
