Rigosertib (ON-01910 sodium salt, with Estybon as trade name) is a synthetic benzyl styryl sulfone that is in phase III clinical trials as an anti-cancer agent. Its geometrical isomer (Z)-ON 01910·Na has less cytotoxicity on cancer cells.

Mechanism

Rigosertib is a small molecule inhibitor, which simultaneously inhibits PI3K and PLK signaling pathways.The over-expression of these two pathways may lead occurrence and development of many kinds of tumors.[2] Thus rigosertib performs potential antineoplastic activity in multiple tumor types.

Rigosertib can convert the gene express profilings, cause mitotic cell-cycle G2 arrest of tumor cells, leading their apoptosis. And what it causes in normal cells is a reversible cell arrest at the G1 and G2 stage without apoptosis. Rigosertib shows little liver damage or neurotoxicity in mouse xenograft models.

Rigosertib is an non-ATP-competitive inhibitor. It inhibits PLK1 by competing at substrate-binding sites with an IC50 of 9 nM.[3]
