Lenvatinib | Lenvima | E7080 | FGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 26 KIT Inhibitor 57 PDGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 30 RET Inhibitor 52 VEGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 36 | Lenvima (lenvatinib) inhibits VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR, KIT, and RET, and suppresses cell proliferation and angiogenesis (PMID: 21781317, PMID: 25295214, PMID: 17943726). Lenvima (lenvatinib) is FDA approved for use in patients with radioactive iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, in combination with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) as first line, or with Afinitor (everolimus) for renal cell carcinoma, and in combination with Pembrolizumab for endometrial carcinoma that is not MSI-H or dMMR (FDA.gov). |
PLX4720 | PLX-4720|PLX 4720 | BRAF Inhibitor 25 | PLX4720 is a 7-azaindole derivative and RAF kinase inhibitor with greater affinity for BRAF V600E than BRAF wild-type, which may induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and lead to tumor growth inhibition and regression (PMID: 18287029). |

BRAF V600E | thyroid cancer | sensitive | Lenvatinib + PLX4720 | Preclinical - Cell line xenograft | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with the combination of PLX4720 and Lenvima (lenvatinib) inhibited proliferation of thyroid cancer cell lines harboring BRAF V600E in culture and resulted in greater tumor growth inhibition than PLX4720 alone in a cell line xenograft model (PMID: 38795180). | 38795180 |
