Description
JSI-1187 is an experimental drug currently being studied in clinical trials for certain advanced solid tumors. It is being investigated as a potential treatment for cancers that have specific mutations in the MAPK pathway, including the BRAF V600E mutation. In clinical trials, JSI-1187 has been tested alone (monotherapy) and in combination with another drug called dabrafenib. The trials are designed to determine the appropriate dose and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of JSI-1187 in patients whose tumors have these specific mutations. It is taken orally, usually in a fasted state.
Mechanism of Action
JSI-1187 is being studied for its potential to target the MAPK pathway, which is involved in cell growth and division. This pathway can become overactive in certain cancers, leading to uncontrolled growth. JSI-1187 is designed to interfere with this pathway. The specific molecular target of JSI-1187 is being investigated in clinical trials.
