Abstract excerpt
RET fusions and activating mutations drive multiple human cancers, while resistance mutations limit the efficacy of current selective RET inhibitors. Here, we report CN-3, a potent RET inhibitor active against clinically relevant mutants, including solvent-front (G810R/S/C), gatekeeper (V804M), hinge (Y806H), and catalytic loop (M918T) variants. CN-3 inhibited all tested RET mutants (IC50 < 5 nM) and selectively...
