| Bioactivity Comments | 
| We have been unable to find a publicly available Ki or IC50 value for indoximod inhibition of IDO1. Indoximod has been reported to selectively inhibit the recently identified IDO2 gene (Q6ZQW0) [3-4], suggesting that IDO2 activity may also participate in the inhibition of immune responses to tumours [1-2,5] |
