Nephrotoxicity of the BRAF-kinase inhibitor Vemurafenib is driven by off-target Ferrochelatase inhibition

2021-01-31

Abstract excerpt

A multitude of disease and therapy related factors drive the frequent development of renal disorders in cancer patients. Along with chemotherapy, the newer targeted therapeutics can also cause renal dysfunction through on and off-target mechanisms. Interestingly, among the small-molecule inhibitors approved for the treatment of cancers that harbor BRAF-kinase activating mutations, vemurafenib can trigger tubular d...
