CDK2 Inhibitor INX-315

**Semantic type:** Pharmacologic Substance

**Definition:** An orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, CDK2 inhibitor INX-315 selectively targets, binds to and inhibits the activity of CDK2. This may lead to cell cycle arrest, the induction of apoptosis, and the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation. CDKs are serine/threonine kinases that are important regulators of cell cycle progression and cellular proliferation and are frequently overexpressed in tumor cells.

**Synonyms:** - INX 315 - INX-315 - INX-315 - INX315
