Dasatinib monohydrate (BMS-354825 Monohydrate) is an orally bioavailable synthetic small molecule-inhibitor of SRC-family protein-tyrosine kinases. Dasatinib monohydrate binds to and inhibits the growth-promoting activities of these kinases. Apparently, because of its less stringent binding affinity for the BCR-ABL kinase, Dasatinib monohydrate has been shown to overcome the resistance to imatinib of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells harboring BCR-ABL kinase domain point mutations.

Dasatinib (BMS-354825) is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits Src and Bcr-Abl (Ki=16/30 pM) and is orally active and ATP-competitive. Dasatinib has antitumor activity and is used in the treatment of leukemia and lymphoma.

N-Deshydroxyethyl Dasatinib (N-Deshydroxyethyl BMS-354825) is a metabolite of Dasatinib, a dasatinib-based molecule that degrades ABL by binding to the IAP ligand via a linker to form SNIPER.N-Deshydroxyethyl Dasatinib is used in the study of cancer and immune diseases.
