Preclinical antitumor efficacy of selective exportin 1 inhibitors in glioblastoma

Abstract

SINE compounds show preclinical efficacy utilizing in vitro and in vivo models of GBM, with induction of apoptosis as the mechanism of action. Selinexor is now in early clinical trials in solid and hematological malignancies. Based on these preclinical data and excellent brain penetration, we have initiated clinical trials of Selinexor in patients with relapsed GBM.
