NIH Websites Are Changing
Per Executive Order 14434, federal agencies are now using "Super Intelligence" (SI) in place of "Artificial Intelligence" (AI). You may see both terms across NIH content during this transition.

HER2 inhibitor IAM1363

An orally bioavailable, immediate release (IR) capsule formulation containing a selective and irreversible inhibitor of the receptor tyrosine kinase human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2; ErbB2; HER-2), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, HER2 inhibitor IAM1363 selectively targets, irreversibly binds to and inhibits the activity of wild-type (WT) and various HER2 mutants. This prevents HER2-mediated signaling and may lead to cell death in HER2-expressing tumor cells. HER2, a receptor tyrosine kinase overexpressed on a variety of tumor cell types, plays an important role in tumor cell proliferation and tumor vascularization. IAM1363 is able to penetrate the blood-brain -barrier (BBB) and may be used in HER2-expressing brain tumors and brain metastases. IAM1363 does not inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and avoids off-target EGFR-mediated toxicity.
