A Novel Irreversible TEAD Inhibitor, SWTX-143, Blocks Hippo Pathway Transcriptional Output and Causes Tumor Regression in Preclinical Mesothelioma Models

The Hippo pathway regulates the YAP and TAZ transcriptional coactivators, which are often upregulated in human cancers. YAP/TAZ partner with TEAD transcription factors to drive cancer phenotypes. Because mutations in the Hippo pathway genes NF2 and LATS2 lead to YAP/TAZ hyperactivation, mesothelioma...
