LDC1267 preferentially inhibits TAM tyrosine kinase receptors Tyro3, Axl and Mer at low nanomolarity. LDC1267 conferred therapeutic potential, efficiently enhancing anti-metastatic natural killer (NK) cells activity. In vivo the compound markedly reduced murine mammary cancer and melanoma metastases dependent on NK cells.

AMG-458 is a potent c-Met inhibitor. AMG-458 was found to significantly inhibit tumor growth in the NIH3T3/TPR-Met and U-87 MG xenograft models with no adverse effect on body weight. AMG-458 was advanced into preclinical safety studies in cancer in USA.

X-396 (Ensartinib) is a novel, potent anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with additional activity against MET, ABL, Axl, EPHA2, LTK, ROS1 and SLK. Ensartinib has demonstrated activity in ALK treatment naïve and previously treated patients and has a generally well tolerated safety profile. Ensartinib is currently in a global phase 3 trial in ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The phase 1/2 clinical findings support the preclinical results that the use of ensartinib may result in favorable therapeutic outcomes in patients with ALK NSCLC, including patients with CNS metastases. In this study, ensartinib was generally well tolerated with the most common adverse event being a rash.

Tepotinib is an investigational small molecule inhibitor of the c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase. Alterations of the c-Met signaling pathway are found in various cancer types and correlate with aggressive tumor behavior and poor clinical prognosis. Tepotinib is a potent and selective c-Met inhibitor, >200-fold selective for c-Met than IRAK4, TrkA, Axl, IRAK1, and Mer. Tepotinib is currently in Phase I/II trials in liver cancer and lung cancer.

Capmatinib (INC280, INCB028060), is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of the proto-oncogene c-Met (hepatocyte growth factor receptor [HGFR]) with potential antineoplastic activity. Novartis acquired Incyte's capmatinib, which is in Phase II clinical trial as monotherapy in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Capmatinib selectively binds to c-Met, thereby inhibiting c-Met phosphorylation and disrupting c-Met signal transduction pathways. This may induce cell death in tumor cells overexpressing c-Met protein or expressing constitutively activated c-Met protein. c-Met, a receptor tyrosine kinase overexpressed or mutated in many tumor cell types, plays key roles in tumor cell proliferation, survival, invasion, metastasis, and tumor angiogenesis.
