| Description | VX-984 (M9831) is an oral, selective DNA-PK inhibitor that can cross the blood-brain barrier. VX-984 inhibited the conjugation of non-homologous terminal NHEJ and acted on DSBs to break DNA double strand. VX-984 is commonly seen in glioblastoma (GBM) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSC-LC) studies. |
