SNX2112, a Synthetic Heat Shock Protein 90 Inhibitor, Has Potent Antitumor Activity against HER Kinase–Dependent Cancers

TL;DR: Hsp90 inhibition with SNX-2112 (delivered as a prodrug) may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for tumors whose growth and survival is dependent on Hsp90 clients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain-permeable small-molecule inhibitors of Hsp90 prevent alpha-synuclein oligomer formation and rescue alpha-synuclein-induced toxicity.

TL;DR: It is found that several compounds prevented αsyn oligomerization as measured by decreased luciferase activity, led to a reduction in high-molecular-mass oligomeric αsyn, and protected against αsyn cytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting of multiple signaling pathways by the Hsp90 inhibitor SNX-2112 in EGFR resistance models as a single agent or in combination with erlotinib.

TL;DR: The advanced evaluation of SNX-5422 as a treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially in cases where the cancer is driven by c-Met amplification or mutated EGFR forms that are resistant to EGFR inhibitors, is supported.
