Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Oncogenic PIK3CA mutations drive numerous solid tumors, rendering PI3Kα a key therapeutic target. However, conventional ATP-competitive inhibitors are severely limited by dose-limiting metabolic toxicities caused by wild-type PI3Kα inhibition. To circumvent these limitations, the drug discovery landscape is rapidly shifting toward mutant-selective allosteric inhibitors designed to spare...
