Description

OSI-930 is a potent inhibitor of Kit, KDR, Flt, CSF-1R, c-Raf and Lck with IC50 of 80 nM, 9 nM, 8 nM, 15 nM, 41 nM and 22 nM, respectively.

Targets

IC₅₀

In Vitro

OSI-930 inhibits the cell proliferation in the HMC-1 cell line with IC50 of 14 nM without significant effect on growth of the COLO-205 cell line that does not express a constitutively active mutant receptor tyrosine kinase. Moreover, OSI-930 also induces apoptosis in HMC-1 cell line with EC50 of 34 nM. ^[1] A recent study shows that OSI-930 inactivates purified, recombinant cytochrome P450 (P450) 3A4 with a K_i of 24 μM in a time- and concentration-dependent mode. ^[2]

In Vivo

OSI-930, administrated at the maximally efficacious dose of 200 mg/kg by oral gavage, exhibits potent antitumor activity in a broad range of preclinical xenograft models including HMC-1, NCI-SNU-5, COLO-205 and U251 xenograft models. ^[1]

Clinical Trials

OSI-930 is currently in Phase I clinical trials in patients with Advanced Solid Tumors.

Description

Combination of OSI-930 and Erlotinib is currently in Phase I clinical trials in patients with Advanced Solid Tumors.

Protein kinase assays

Protein kinase assays are either done in-house by ELISA-based assay methods (Kit, KDR, PDGFRα, and PDGFRβ) or by a radiometric method. In-house ELISA assays used poly(Glu:Tyr) as the substrate bound to the surface of 96-well assay plates; phosphorylation is then detected using an antiphosphotyrosine antibody conjugated to HRP. The bound antibody is then quantitated using ABTS as the peroxidase substrate by measuring the absorbance at 405/490 nm. All assays uses purified recombinant kinase catalytic domains that are either expressed in insect cells or in bacteria. The Kit and EGFR protein used for in-house assays are prepared internally; other enzymes are obtained. Recombinant Kit protein is expressed as an NH₂-terminal glutathione S-transferase fusion protein in insect cells and is initially purified as a nonphosphorylated (nonactivated) enzyme with a relatively high K_m for ATP (400 μM). In some assays, an activated (tyrosine phosphorylated) form of the enzyme is prepared by incubation with 1 mM ATP for 1 hour at 30 °C. The phosphorylated protein is then passed through a desalting column to remove the majority of the ATP and stored at ?80 °C in buffer containing 50% glycerol. The resultant preparation has a considerably higher specific activity and a lower Km for ATP (25 μM) than the initial nonphosphorylated preparation. The inhibition of Kit autophosphorylation by OSI-930 is assayed by incubation of the nonphosphorylated enzyme at 30 °C in the presence of 200 μM ATP and various concentrations of OSI-930. The reaction is stopped by removal of aliquots into SDS-PAGE sample buffer followed by heating to 100 °C for 5 minutes. The degree of phosphorylation of Kit is then determined by immunoblotting for both total Kit and phosphorylated Kit.

Methods

For assays of cell proliferation and apoptosis, cells are seeded into 96-well plates and incubated for 2 to 3 days in the presence of OSI-930 at various concentrations. Inhibition of cell growth is determined by luminescent quantitation of the intracellular ATP content using CellTiterGlo. Induction of caspase-dependent apoptosis by OSI-930 is quantitated by an enzymatic caspase 3/7 assay. Inhibition of angiogenesis by OSI-930 is monitored using the rat aortic ring endothelial sprout outgrowth assay. Sections of aorta are prepared from CO₂-euthanized male rats and cultured in vitro in a collagen matrix in the presence or absence of OSI-930. The collagen matrix is prepared from type 1 rat tail collagen solubilized in 0.1% acetic acid at 3 mg/mL, which is combined with 0.125 volume collagen buffer (0.05 N NaOH, 200 mM HEPES, 260 mM NaHCO₃), 0.125 volume of medium 199, 0.0125 volume of 1 M NaOH, and 1% GlutaMax. Aortic rings are embedded in 0.4 mL of this matrix in six-well plates, to which 0.5 mL endothelial basal medium and the appropriate amount of OSI-930 is added; the rings are then incubated for 10 days and the resultant angiogenic sprout outgrowth is digitally quantitated from images by measurement of the sprout-containing area within a series of concentric rings around the aortic tissue area.
