The wild-type NSCLC. aim of this study was to determine whether sorafenib and its deriva- tive can inhibit EGFR wild-type NSCLC via STAT3 inactivation. Key Words: Sorafenib, Cyclin D1, Survivin, Non–small-cell lung Methods: EGFR wild-type NSCLC cell lines (A549 H292 H322 cancer, STAT3. H358 and H460) were treated with sorafenib or SC-1, a sorafenib (J Thorac Oncol. 2014;9: 488–496) derivative that closely resembled sorafenib structurally but was devoid of kinase inhibitory activity. Apoptosis and signal transduc- tion were analyzed. In vivo efficacy was determined in nude mice
