Abstract

This patent provides novel macrocycle compounds that inhibit key mutants (G12D/G13D) of the KRAS oncogene, which is the most frequently mutated in human cancers. These compounds, along with their pharmaceutical compositions and protein complexes, are intended for the treatment of cancers driven by these mutations.
