Brief Summary  

Despite significant advances in systemic therapies, radiation oncology and surgical techniques, many patients with cancer are still incurable. One of the key approaches recently has been to target the receptor tyrosine kinases, which are often over expressed and/or mutated in many tumors and regulate proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, tumor invasiveness and distant metastases. Though several agents have been developed in this area, there is a lot of scope for improvement in terms of newer and better agents. 

 

Amplified epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling is frequently found in human tumors and can be caused by various mechanisms. As amplified EGFR signaling plays an important role in carcinogenesis, inhibiting this process could be the rationale approach in the development of New Chemical Entity (NCE)

 

NRC-2694-A belongs to the quinazoline class of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor demonstrated good anti cancer activity in preclinical  studies.
