GlossaryPI3K inhibitor (phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor)

blocks enzyme activity involved in cell growth and survival

A PI3K inhibitor, also known as a phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor, is a type of drug that blocks the activity of the PI3K enzyme. This enzyme is involved in various cellular functions, including growth, proliferation, and survival. By inhibiting PI3K, these drugs can help treat certain cancers and other diseases where PI3K is abnormally active.
