Used in research as a kinase inhibitor, particularly targeting receptor tyrosine kinases involved in cell signaling pathways. Shows potential in oncology studies due to its ability to interfere with tumor cell proliferation and survival. Investigated for its anti-cancer properties in preclinical models, especially in solid tumors. Also serves as a scaffold for developing more selective inhibitors due to its strong binding affinity and structural specificity. Not used clinically but valuable in drug discovery for optimizing potency and selectivity in kinase-targeted therapies.
