Gefitinib dihydrochloride
Catalog No. A31500

Gefitinib dihydrochloride is a potent and selective inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase, exhibiting an IC50 of 33 nM. This compound effectively inhibits EGF-stimulated tumor cell proliferation (IC50 of 54 nM) and prevents EGFR autophosphorylation, thereby blocking downstream signaling pathways. Gefitinib dihydrochloride is valuable for cancer research, particularly in the study of lung and breast cancers, due to its ability to induce autophagy and promote apoptosis in tumor cells.
