A cell-permeable oxadiazolyl-quinolinecarboxamide that is shown to selectively suppress STAT3, but not STAT1, STAT5a, or STAT5b, DNA binding activity and prevent IL-6-stimulated STAT3 dimerization in HEK293 cells (by 99% at 100uM), as well as inhibit the expression of STAT3 target genes both in cultures in vitro (effective conc. 50uM) and in SCC3-derived tumors in mice in vivo (160mg/kg/day; p.o.).
