| Targets |
CDK4 and CDK6 (cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6). Tanuxiciclib selectively binds to and inhibits CDK4 and CDK6, key regulators of the G1 to S phase cell cycle transition. By blocking the phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma (Rb) protein, Tanuxiciclib prevents the release of E2F transcription factors, leading to sustained G1 arrest in Rb-proficient cancer cells. This inhibition suppresses the proliferation of cancer cells, particularly in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Tanuxiciclib is a potent and selective CDK4/6 inhibitor. While specific IC50 values are not provided in the search results, it is expected to have activity in the low nanomolar range. It is used in cancer research to study the effects of CDK4/6 inhibition on cell cycle progression and tumor cell proliferation. It is an active comparator in research studies.
|
| ln Vivo |
Tanuxiciclib trihydrochloride (BPI-1178) has a maximum clinical trial phase of Phase I, indicating that it has been tested in humans for safety and preliminary efficacy. It is being studied for the treatment of various cancers, including breast cancer. In vivo efficacy would have been demonstrated in preclinical xenograft models, showing tumor growth inhibition. Phase I trials are designed to determine maximum tolerated dose, safety, and pharmacokinetics.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Tanuxiciclib is a CDK4/6 inhibitor. For a cell-free enzymatic assay, purified CDK4/cyclin D1 or CDK6/cyclin D1 complexes are incubated with varying concentrations of Tanuxiciclib (0.1 nM-100 uM) in a reaction buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT) for 15-30 minutes at room temperature. The reaction is initiated by adding a retinoblastoma (Rb) peptide substrate (1 uM) and ATP (10-100 uM, with 33P-ATP or a fluorescent label). After 60 minutes at 30degC, the reaction is quenched with EDTA, and the amount of phosphorylated Rb peptide is quantified by filter binding or FRET. IC50 values are calculated.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular studies, Rb-proficient breast cancer cell lines (e.g., MCF-7, T47D) are seeded in 96-well plates (5×103 cells/well) and treated with Tanuxiciclib at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM-10 uM for 48-96 hours. Cell viability is measured using the CellTiter-Glo (ATP) assay. To confirm CDK4/6 inhibition, cells are treated for 24-48 hours, and the phosphorylation of Rb (at Ser780 or Ser795) is measured by Western blotting. Cell cycle analysis is performed by flow cytometry after propidium iodide (PI) staining, where an increase in the percentage of cells in G1 phase is expected. Apoptosis is assessed by measuring caspase 3/7 activity. The effect of the compound on cell proliferation can also be assessed by Ki67 staining by flow cytometry or immunofluorescence.
|
| Animal Protocol |
A typical in vivo protocol for a CDK4/6 inhibitor involves establishing subcutaneous xenografts of a breast cancer cell line (e.g., MCF-7, T47D, or a patient-derived xenograft model) in 6-8 week old female BALB/c nude mice. When tumors reach ~150-200 mm3, mice are randomized into treatment groups (n=8-10). Tanuxiciclib trihydrochloride is administered orally by gavage daily for 3-4 weeks at doses of 10-50 mg/kg. Tumor volume is measured with calipers every 2-3 days. Body weight is monitored as a measure of tolerability. At the end of the study, tumors are excised and analyzed for Ki67 (proliferation), phospho-Rb (target engagement), and cleaved caspase-3 (apoptosis). Blood samples are collected for PK analysis and hematology (complete blood count).
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No specific PK data is reported for Tanuxiciclib. As a CDK4/6 inhibitor, it is expected to be orally bioavailable, with moderate to high oral absorption. The half-life is likely to be in the range of 10-30 hours, supporting once-daily oral dosing. The compound is metabolized primarily by CYP3A4. The trihydrochloride salt formulation improves aqueous solubility for oral and intravenous administration. PK parameters would be determined during preclinical and clinical studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data has been reported. CDK4/6 inhibitors as a class are known to cause myelosuppression (particularly neutropenia) as a primary dose-limiting toxicity. Other side effects may include fatigue, gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, diarrhea), and hepatotoxicity (elevated liver enzymes). Skin rashes and alopecia are also reported. The toxicity profile is generally manageable, and adverse events are reversible upon dose reduction or interruption. The trihydrochloride salt is expected to have similar class-based toxicities.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
