Abstract excerpt
KRAS is an archetypal high-value intractable oncology drug target. The glycine to cysteine mutation at codon 12 represents an Achilles heel that has now rendered this important GTPase druggable. Herein, we report our structure-based drug design approach that led to the identification of 21, AZD4625, a clinical development candidate for the treatment of KRASG12C positive tumors. Highlights include a quinazoline...
