Vismodegib is a potent hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway inhibitor. Vismodegib is a potent inhibitor of two ABC transporters, ABCG2 and Mdr-1 (ABCB1), with IC50 values of 1.4 and 3.0 muM, respectively. Vismodegib may have antitumor activity in locally advanced or metastatic basal-cell carcinoma. In vitro studies are conducted to examine the mechanism of action, biological activity, biochemical and physiological effects of vismodegib. These studies have demonstrated that vismodegib is a powerful inhibitor of the hedgehog pathway and possesses the ability to hinder the proliferation of cancer cells in a dosage-dependent manner. Furthermore, vismodegib has been observed to reduce the expression of various genes involved in cell growth and differentiation, including the genes responsible for encoding Smoothened, Gli1, and Gli2 proteins.
