Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
An orally available small molecule inhibitor of Aurora kinases (AKs) A and B and other currently undisclosed kinases with potential antineoplastic and immunomodulatory activities. Upon oral administration, Aurora kinase inhibitor TT-00420 selectively binds to and inhibits AKs A and B, which may inhibit cell division in tumor cells that overexpress AKs. TT-00420 may also target other not yet disclosed kinases that play a role in tumor-associated inflammation and immune evasion. Aurora kinases are serine-threonine kinases that play essential roles in mitotic checkpoint control and are overexpressed by a wide variety of cancer cell types.

Tt-00420 has been investigated in 2 clinical trials, of which 2 are open and 0 are closed. Of the trials investigating tt-00420, 1 is phase 1 (1 open) and 1 is phase 1/phase 2 (1 open).

ER Negative, ER No Expression, and HER2 Deficient Expression are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for tt-00420 clinical trials.

Breast carcinoma and malignant solid tumor are the most common diseases being investigated in tt-00420 clinical trials [2].
