Product Description

Ro 5126766 (also known as Ro-5126766; CH5126766) is a novel, potent, first-in-class dual inhibitor of MEK/RAF mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) with anticancer activity. With IC50 values of 8.2, 56, 160 nM, and 190 nM, respectively, it allosterically inhibits BRAFV600E, CRAF, MEK, and BRAF. RO5126766 may have anti-neoplastic effects because it is a protein kinase inhibitor with a focus on the Raf and MEK kinases. The target gene transcription that encourages the malignant transformation of cells was inhibited by RO5126766's inhibition of the kinase activities of Raf and MEK. Both Raf and MEK are serine/threonine-specific kinases that react to extracellular stimuli like mitogens and participate in the control of cellular processes like gene expression, mitosis, differentiation, and apoptosis.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
MEK (IC50 = 160 nM); BRAF V600E (IC50 = 8.2 nM); Braf (IC50 = 190 nM); CRAF (IC50 = 56 nM)
ln Vitro
Avutometinib (Ro 5126766), an allosteric inhibitor, binds to MEK directly and prevents RAF from phosphorylating it by creating a stable RAF-MEK complex. Ro 5126766 blocks both RAF's phosphorylation of MEK and MEK's activation of ERK. Avutometinib effectively prevents ERK2 activation by MEK1 in cell-free MEK and RAF kinase assays with an IC50 of 160 nM (SD=±0.043) and prevents BRAF, BRAFV600E, and CRAF from phosphorylating MEK1 protein (IC50=190 nM, SD=±0.003, IC50=8.2 nM, SD=±0.0015), and CRAF (IC50=56 nM, SD=±0.016) respectively. In a variety of human tumor cell lines, including KRAS/HRAS and BRAF mutant cell lines and KRAS/HRAS and BRAF wild-type cells, avatometinib efficiently inhibits both MEK and ERK phosphorylation[1]. Human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells with KRAS and BRAF mutations are treated with avatometinib, with or without statins, inhibiting the rate-limiting enzyme in the mevalonate pathway. This is done to determine whether the mevalonate pathway affects the sensitivity to MEK inhibitors. In a dose-dependent manner, the combined treatment of avutometinib and XU 62-320 shows a more notable reduction in cell growth than the individual treatment of avutometinib alone. The significant combined effects of avutometinib at a concentration of 40 nM and XU 62-320 at a concentration of 0.3 μM are also confirmed to have suppressed cell colony formation[2].
ln Vivo
Avutometinib (Ro 5126766) inhibits growth and induces tumor regressions in KRAS-mutant xenograft models more efficiently than PD0325901, another allosteric MEK inhibitor. Ro 5126766 has an ED50 of 0.03 to 0.23 mg/kg and an ED90 of 0.15 to 1.56 mg/kg, according to preclinical data from a number of mouse xenograft models with human tumors. Target trough concentrations of 17 to 133 ng/L and 87 to 901 ng/mL, respectively, are linked to these effective doses. [1]. The HCT116 model is used in this experiment to administer Avutometinib or PD0325901 at their respective maximum tolerated doses (MTDs) of 1.5 and 25 mg/kg, respectively. In the tumors from the drug-treated mice, these doses inhibit pERK and ERK signaling output to comparable degrees 4 hours after the initial drug administration. Additionally, the ED50 for avutometinib and PD0325901 in HCT116 models are 0.056 and 0.80 mg/kg, respectively. As a result, the doses used in this experiment are 26.8 and 31.3 times higher than the doses with a 50% efficacy, respectively. Each of these tumors significantly regresses when either medication is taken orally daily. However, while tumor models receiving PD0325901 become refractory after 10 days of treatment, tumor models receiving avutometinib lose their ability to inhibit tumor growth for the full 28-day treatment period[3].
Enzyme Assay
The inhibitory activities against CRAF, BRAF, or BRAF V600E enzymes are measured by quantification of phosphorylation of inactive K97R MEK1 [MEK1] by recombinant RAF proteins [BRAF: B-RAF wt, BRAF V600E: B-RAF V600E or CRAF: Raf-1] with Europium-anti-MEK1/2 (pSer218/222) antibody and SureLight allophycocyanine-anti-6his antibody by measuring time-resolved fluorescence (TRF). Alternately, using the IMAP fluorescence polarization (FP) Screening Express Kit, the inhibitory activities against the RAF enzymes are quantified by quantifying the phosphorylation of a fluorescein-labeled peptide corresponding to human MEK1 212-224 and human MEK2 217-229 (5-Fl-SGQLIDSMANSFV-NH2, MEKtide). By using active MEK1 (MEK1 S218E/S222E) and inactive, dephosphorylated ERK2 (MAP kinase 2/Erk 2) in a coupled assay, the inhibition of MEK1 is assessed. The IMAP FP Screening Express Kit is used to measure how many times an fluorescently-labeled peptide substrate (FAM-Erktide, IPTTPITTTYFFFK-5FAM-COOH) is phosphorylated by ERK2.
Cell Assay
The number of viable cells is assessed with a Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. Breast cancer in people Human melanoma SK-MEL-28 cells, MDA-MB-231 cells, and non-small cell lung cancer cells all A549 cells are plated in 96-well plates at a density of 2,000 cells per well and allowed to grow for 24 hours before being exposed to Ro 5126766 (10, 20, 40, and 80 nM) for 72 hours. The samples' absorbance at 450 nm is measured using a multi-plate reader after an additional 4 hours of kit reagent incubation[2].
Animal Protocol
Mice: Female BALB-nu/nu mice (CAnN.Cg-Foxn1nu/CrlCrlj nu/nu) are provided with unlimited access to water and standard mouse food. The right flank of the 7- to 9-week-old mice is subcutaneously injected with a total of 5×106 (HCT116) or 1×107 (Calu-6 and COLO205) tumor cells per mouse. Avutometinib (1.5 mg/kg or 2.0 mg/kg), PD0325901 (25 mg/kg), or the vehicle [5% DMSO and 10% 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) solution in distilled water], is given orally once daily to the mice once the tumor volume reaches 200 mm3 (day 0). At the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), medications are administered. Calculated tumor growth inhibition (TGI). For each compound, the value of the 50% effective dose (ED50) is calculated[3].
