Properties Molecular formula C22H23N5O Molar mass 373.45 g mol−1 Except where noted otherwise, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C, 100 kPa) Infobox references Motesanib (AMG 706) is an experimental drug candidate. It is an orally administered small molecule antagonist of VEGF receptors, platelet-derived growth factor receptors, and stem cell factor receptors.[1] It is used as the phosphate salt motesanib diphosphate.
Clinical trials
In 2011, it was reported that a Phase III trial did not show benefit for advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC).[1] The drug is separately undergoing Phase II evaluation as first-line therapy for breast cancer.[1]
There has also been a clinical trial for thyroid cancer.[2]
