Background:

GSK3179106 is a potent and selective RET kinase inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.4 nM[1].

GSK3179106 (10 nM-100 μM; 8 days for TT cells, 3 days for SK-N-AS and A549 cells) inhibits the proliferation of the RET-dependent TT cell line with a mean IC50 value of 25.5 nM however has no effect on the proliferation of the RET-independent SK-NAS and A549 cell lines (mean IC50>10 μM and IC30>17 μM, respectively)[1].GSK3179106 inhibits RET phosphorylation in SK-N-AS cells and TT cells with mean IC50s of 4.6 nM and 11.1 nM, respectively[1].

GSK3179106 (3 or 10 mg/kg; orally; for 3.5 days BID) reduces the visceromotor response (VMR) in comparison to rats given an acetic acid enema and dosed with vehicle[1].
