Factors influencing the Central Nervous System (CNS) distribution of the ATR inhibitor elimusertib (BAY1895344): Implications for the treatment of CNS tumors [Metabolism, Transport, and Pharmacogenetics]

ASPET

GBM has a poor prognosis despite aggressive treatment, in part due to lack of adequate drug permeability at the BBB. Various DDR inhibitors, targeting the key regulators of these pathways such as ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3-related (ATR), are being explored as radio- and chemo-sensitizers.

Preclinical systemic pharmacokinetics, dose-proportionality, and CNS distribution of the ATM inhibitor WSD0628, a novel radiosensitizer for the treatment of brain tumors [Metabolism, Transport, and Pharmacogenetics]

ASPET

Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase is a key regulator of DSB repair, and ATM inhibitors are being explored as radiosensitizers for various tumors, including primary and metastatic brain tumors. Efficacy of radiosensitizers for brain tumors may be influenced by a lack of effective drug delivery across the blood-brain barrier (BBB).
