Abstract

Deregulation of c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase activity leads to tumorigenesis and metastasis in animal models. More importantly, the identification of activating mutations in c- Met, as well as MET gene amplification in human cancers, points to c-Met as an important target for cancer therapy. We have previously described two classes of c-Met kinase inhibitors (class I and class II) that differ in their binding modes and selectivity profiles. The ...
