How it works

Fruquintinib is a small molecule kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR)-1, -2, and -3 with IC 50 values of 33, 35, and 0.5 nM, respectively.

In vitro studies showed fruquintinib inhibited VEGF-mediated endothelial cell proliferation and tubular formation.
