Dasatinib is a potent, ATP-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It is specific for SRC/ABL kinases, for example, ABL, SRC, LCK, and YES with IC₅₀ values of < 1.0, 0.5, 0.4 and 0.5 nM, respectively, and also demonstrates activity against KIT with an IC₅₀ = 5.0 nM (Lombardo et al.; Davis et al.) Dasatinib is a second-generation inhibitor of the oncogenic tyrosine kinase BCR-ABL with 325-fold more potency than imatinib, and is also able to inhibit imatinib-resistant BCR-ABL mutants (Tokarski et al.). It also inhibits a large number of other kinases (76 of 148 kinases tested) when screened at 10 μM (Carter et al.).
