Active Ingredient Description
Lenvatinib

Lenvatinib is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor that selectively inhibits the kinase activities of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, in addition to other proangiogenic and oncogenic pathway-related RTKs including fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors, the platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor PDGFRα, KIT, and RET. Lenvatinib has shown mainly antiangiogenic properties in vitro and in vivo, and direct inhibition of tumour growth was also observed in in vitro models.
