Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: https://repository.library.northeastern.edu/files/neu:657/fulltext.pdf | http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800025382 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19770380

Danusertib is a serine/threonine kinase inhibitor of multiple kinases, including aurora-A, B, and C. It also inhibits several cancer related tyrosine kinases as well as Abl, Trk-a, fibroblast growth receptor-1 and Ret. Danusertib is in phase II trials for the treatment of solid tumours, prostate cancer and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The most frequently reported side effects were neutropenia, nausea, anorexia, fatigue, and diarrhea.
