Biological Activity for BAG 956

BAG 956 is a dual PDPK1 (PDK1) and class I PI 3-K inhibitor (IC₅₀ values are 245, 56, 446, 35 and 117 nM for PDPK1 and PI 3-K p110 -α, -β, -δ, and -γ respectively). Inhibits cellular AKT phosphorylation at Thr308. Blocks cell proliferation, causing arrest in G₁ phase of the cell cycle. Slows tumor progression in mouse xenograft models.
