Abstract:

Heat shock protein 90(Hsp90)is a highly conserved protein which have been proved to play an important role in the development and progression of malignant transformation.As one of small molecule inhibitors that has been detected to have potent antitumor activity in a wide range of malignancies,NVP-AUY922 is a pyrazole scaffold drug with many advantages such as low toxicity and stable structure.As a result of this,NVP-AUY922 is extensively considered as a new promising kind of anti-tumor drug.This review intends to update the reader on advances made over the past four years in the clinical development of NVP-AUY922 in advanced cancers.

Key words: Hsp90 inhibitor, Tumor, TKI, NVP-AUY922
