High In Vitro and In Vivo Activity of BI-847325, a Dual MEK/Aurora Kinase Inhibitor, in Human Solid and Hematologic Cancer Models
Cancer research communications(2023)
摘要
BI-847325 is an ATP-competitive inhibitor of MEK/Aurora kinases with the potential to treat a wide range of cancers. In a panel of 294 human tumor cell lines in vitro, BI-847325 was found to be a highly selective inhibitor that was active in the submicromolar range. The most sensitive cancer types were acute lymphocytic and myelocytic leukemia, melanomas, bladder, colorectal, and mammary cancers. BI-847325 showed a broader range of activity than the MEK inhibitor GDC-0623. The high efficacy of BI-847325 was associated with but not limited to cell lines with oncogenic mutations in NRAS, BRAF, and MAP2K1.The high antiproliferative activity of BI-847325 was validated in vivo using subcutaneous xenograft models. After oral administration of 80 and 40 mg/kg once weekly for 3 or 4 weeks, BI-847325 was highly active in four of five colorectal, two of two gastric, two of two mammary, and one of one pancreatic cancer models (test/control < 25%), and tumor regressions were observed in five of 11 cancer models. The treatment was well tolerated with no relevant lethality or body weight changes. In combination with capecitabine, BI-847325 displayed synergism over single-agent therapies, leading to complete remission in the triple-negative mammary model MAXFTN 401, partial regression in the colon model CXF 1103, and stasis in the gastric models GXA 3011 and GXA 3023. In conclusion, dual MEK/Aurora kinase inhibition shows remarkable potential for treating multiple types of hematologic and solid tumors. The combination with capecitabine was synergistic in colorectal, gastric, and mammary cancer.
