What is the MOA of verdinexor (Laverdia-ca1) (Sadowski BMC 2018) **committee member**
oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) that transiently binds to XPO1 in a slowly reversible manner
XPO1 (exportin 1) is one way neoplastic cells move key tumor suppressor proteins and growth regulatory proteins from nucleus to cytoplasm (and make them therefore inactive)
XPO1 inhibition forces the nuclear retention of key TSP and GRP such as p53, p21, pRB, FOXO and NF-κB
