Pharmacology
Encorafenib is a kinase inhibitor that targets BRAF V600E as well as wild-type BRAF and CRAF, blocking constitutively activated BRAF kinase signaling driven by BRAF V600 mutations that stimulates tumor cell growth; in combination with binimetinib, it targets two kinases in the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway for greater anti-tumor activity.
KRAS G12C inhibitor; sotorasib forms an irreversible, covalent bond with the unique cysteine of KRAS G12C, locking the protein in an inactive state that prevents downstream signaling without affecting wild-type KRAS, thereby blocking tumor cell growth and promoting apoptosis in KRAS G12C tumor cell lines.
