Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
An orally bioavailable antagonist of the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) receptor type 4 (EP4; EP-4), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon oral administration, E7046 selectively targets, binds to and blocks the activity of immunosuppressive tumor-associated myeloid cells (TAMCs) in the microenvironment. This abolishes TAMC-dependent immunosuppression and reduces tumor cell proliferation. The presence of immunosuppressive myeloid cells in certain tumors is associated with a poor prognosis.

E7046 has been investigated in 4 clinical trials, of which 3 are open and 1 is closed. Of the trials investigating e7046, 4 are phase 1 (3 open).

ER Negative, ER No Expression, and HER2 Deficient Expression are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for e7046 clinical trials.

Breast carcinoma, cervical carcinoma, and non-small cell lung carcinoma are the most common diseases being investigated in e7046 clinical trials [2].
