" Moreover, we found DK419 inhibited the growth of CRC tumor cells in vitro, had good plasma exposure when dosed orally, and inhibited the growth of patient derived CRC240 tumor explants in mice dosed orally."1.48Identification of DK419, a potent inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and colorectal cancer growth.
