Targeting PLK1, a Key Regulatory Enzyme in Tumor Cell Division
We are developing onvansertib, an oral and highly selective inhibitor of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) for the treatment of cancers with the greatest need for new treatment options.
PLK1 is over-expressed in most cancers. Inhibition of PLK1 causes mitotic arrest and subsequent cell death. Emerging data demonstrates that PLK1 is also a key regulator of cellular functions beyond mitosis that are essential for tumor growth.
