Graphical summary of tirbanibulin mechanism of action (ATNXUS-KX01-001 study): representative summary of tirbanibulin described and potential mechanisms of action. Tirbanibulin inhibits tubulin polymerization, activating intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways of cancer cells inducing IL-α and P53. The disruption of the cytoskeleton leads to the arrest of the cell cycle via multiple factors (eg, CD1, FAK) and might affect Src intracellular trafficking (FAK, Rho and GEF-H1) and Src-mediated signaling (FAK, paxillin, Rho, p130, p120) causing the inhibition of p-Src and metastasis. This figure was created with “BioRender.com”.

Abbreviations: FAK, focal adhesion kinase; GEF-H1, guanine exchange factor H1; IL, interleukin; pSrc, phosphorylated Src.
