BQR-695 is an antimalarial compound.1 It inhibits recombinant P. vivax and human phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI4K; IC50s = 3.5 and 90 nM, respectively). BQR-695 induces schizont-stage arrest and death of P. falciparum (IC50 = ~70 nM) without inducing cytotoxicity in mature red blood cells (RBCs).
