Description
XL-765 is an inhibitor of PI3K and mTOR that displays anticancer chemotherapeutic and anti-angiogenic activities; it is currently in clinical trials as a potential treatment for lymphomas and solid tumors. XL-765 inhibits cell proliferation, tumor growth, and angiogenesis in cellular and animal models of cancers.
