Masitinib (AB1010), a potent and selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting KIT.
<h4>Background</h4>The stem cell factor receptor, KIT, is a target for the treatment of cancer, mastocytosis, and inflammatory diseases. Here, we characterise the in vitro and in vivo profiles of masitinib (AB1010), a novel phenylaminothiazole-type tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets...
