NCIt definition : The sulfate salt of selumetinib, an orally active, small molecule with potential antineoplastic
activity. Selumetinib is an ATP-independent inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein
kinase kinase (MEK or MAPK/ERK kinase) 1 and 2. MEK 1 and 2 are dual specificity kinases
that are essential mediators in the activation of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, are
often upregulated in various cancer cells, and are drivers of diverse cellular responses,
including proliferation. Inhibition of both MEK1 and 2 by selumetinib prevents the
activation of MEK1/2 dependent effector proteins and transcription factors, thereby
leading to an inhibition of cellular proliferation in various cancers.;
