About Antineoplastic - Hedgehog Pathway Inhibitors.

Antineoplastic Hedgehog pathway inhibitors are a targeted class of anticancer agents designed to disrupt aberrant Hedgehog signaling cascades involved in cellular proliferation, survival, and stem-cell maintenance.

These small-molecule therapies primarily function by binding to and inhibiting Smoothened, a pivotal transmembrane protein receptor, thereby blocking downstream transcription factors and halting oncogenic signal transmission.

Clinically, members of this class—such as vismodegib and sonidegib—are indicated for the treatment of advanced, recurrent, or metastatic basal cell carcinoma when surgical resection or radiation is unfeasible, while other agents like glasdegib are utilized in combination regimens for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
