High-throughput virtual screening and preclinical analysis identifies CB-1, a novel potent dual B-Raf/c-Raf inhibitor, effective against wild and mutant variants of B-Raf expression in colorectal carcinoma.

Abstract excerpt

Paradoxical Raf activation via Raf dimerization is a major drawback of wild/mutant B-Raf inhibitors. Herein, we report that CB-1 a novel, potent B-Raf/c-Raf dual inhibitor, effective against colon cancer cells, irrespective of their genetic status. High-throughput virtual screening of the ChemBridge library against wild B-Raf (B-RafWT), mutant B-Raf (B-RafV600E), and c-Raf was performed using an automated...
