Targeting WEE1 Kinase for Breast Cancer Therapeutics: An Update. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
Adavosertib's clinical promise was challenged by inter-individual variations in response and side effects. Because of these promising preclinical outcomes, other WEE1 kinase inhibitors (Azenosertib, SC0191, IMP7068, PD0407824, PD0166285, WEE1-IN-5, Zedoresertib, WEE1-IN-8, and ATRN-1051) are being developed, with several currently being evaluated in clinical trials or as an adjuvant to chemotherapies...Reliable predictors of clinical responses based on mechanistic insights remain an important unmet need. Herein, we review the role of WEE1 inhibition therapy in breast cancer.
