Description
NVP-BGJ398 is an inhibitor of FGFR that exhibits anticancer chemotherapeutic and antirachitic activities. NVP-BGJ398 inhibits cell viability in colon cancer cells and prevents progression and tumor formation in animal models of malignant rhabdoid tumors. In endometrial cancer cells, NVP-BGJ398 induces cell cycle arrest and inhibits growth; in vivo, it also inhibits tumor growth. NVP-BGJ398 inhibits aberrant FGFR signaling in animal models of rickets disease, normalizing bone growth and mineralization.
