The possibility of targeting CRAC channel mediated Ca2+ entry in cancer cells has generated considerable interest in recent years. Use of CRAC channel blockers in cancer preclinical studies and clinical trials has been relatively limited as compared to other diseases. The future lies in developing and testing more potent and selective drugs that target cancer cell specific CRAC channel proteins, hence opening better avenues for cancer therapeutic development.
