Pharmacology
Cabozantinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits MET, VEGFR-1/-2/-3, AXL, RET, ROS1, TYRO3, MER, KIT, TRKB, FLT-3, and TIE-2 - receptor tyrosine kinases involved in oncogenesis, metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, drug resistance, and maintenance of the tumor microenvironment.
Lenvatinib is a multi-kinase inhibitor that inhibits VEGFR1, VEGFR2, and VEGFR3 kinase activities as well as FGFR1-4, PDGFRA, KIT, and RET, suppressing pathogenic angiogenesis and tumor growth; in combination with pembrolizumab or everolimus, it demonstrates enhanced antiangiogenic and antitumor activity.
