Mechanism of action
From the NCI Drug Dictionary: A specific inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) subtypes alpha and beta, with potential antineoplastic and chemo/radiosensitizing activities. Upon oral administration, Hsp90alpha/beta inhibitor TAS-116 specifically binds to and inhibits the activity of Hsp90 alpha and beta; this results in the proteasomal degradation of oncogenic client proteins, which inhibits client protein dependent-signaling, induces apoptosis, and inhibits the proliferation of cells overexpressing HSP90alpha/beta.
Diseases for which it is used
History of changes in PMDA indication
- 2022-06-20: A drug with a new active ingredient indicated for the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumor that has progressed after cancer chemotherapy.
Also known as
- Code name: TAS-116
- Brand name: Jeselhy
