AG 1406 potently inhibited recombinant EGFR tyrosine kinase activity in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 = 0.04 μM; it showed no significant inhibition of PDGFR or VEGFR tyrosine kinase (IC50 > 10 μM) [1]
- In EGFR-overexpressing tumor cell lines: AG 1406 inhibited proliferation of A431 (epidermoid carcinoma) with IC50 = 0.1 μM, MDA-MB-468 (breast cancer) with IC50 = 0.2 μM, and KB (oral carcinoma) with IC50 = 0.15 μM (MTT assay) [1] - Western blot analysis showed that AG 1406 (0.1-1 μM, 6 h) dose-dependently suppressed EGF-induced EGFR phosphorylation (Tyr1173) in A431 cells: 1 μM reduced phosphorylation by ~92% compared to EGF-stimulated control; downstream signaling molecules (p-Akt, p-ERK1/2) were also inhibited by ~85% and ~80% respectively [1] - AG 1406 (0.5 μM, 72 h) induced G1 cell cycle arrest in A431 cells (flow cytometry): G1 phase cells increased from 42% (control) to 68%, S phase cells decreased from 35% to 17% [1] - In colony formation assay, AG 1406 (0.05-0.2 μM) dose-dependently reduced the number of A431 cell colonies: 0.2 μM inhibited colony formation by ~75% compared to control [1] |
| ln Vivo |
In nude mice bearing A431 xenografts: Oral administration of AG 1406 (50 mg/kg, once daily) for 21 days significantly inhibited tumor growth; tumor volume at day 21 was 32% of vehicle control (P<0.01), and tumor weight was reduced by ~68% compared to vehicle [1]
- In MDA-MB-468 breast cancer xenograft mice: AG 1406 (75 mg/kg, oral, daily for 18 days) suppressed tumor growth by ~62% (tumor volume) and ~60% (tumor weight) versus vehicle (P<0.01) [1] - Immunohistochemical staining of A431 tumor tissues from AG 1406-treated mice showed reduced EGFR phosphorylation (by ~70%) and Ki-67 (cell proliferation marker) expression (by ~65%) compared to vehicle [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Recombinant human EGFR tyrosine kinase domain was purified and resuspended in kinase buffer. AG 1406 was serially diluted (0.001-10 μM) and mixed with the recombinant kinase. The reaction mixture was supplemented with MgCl2, [γ-32P]ATP (at Km concentration for EGFR), and a synthetic peptide substrate (derived from EGFR autophosphorylation site). After incubation at 30°C for 30 minutes, the reaction was terminated by spotting onto phosphocellulose filters. Filters were washed to remove unincorporated radioactivity, and bound radioactivity (indicating phosphorylated substrate) was measured by scintillation counting. IC50 values were calculated by nonlinear regression of dose-response inhibition curves [1]
- For PDGFR and VEGFR kinase assays: The same protocol was followed using recombinant PDGFR/VEGFR tyrosine kinase domains and their respective peptide substrates, with AG 1406 tested at concentrations up to 10 μM [1] |
| Cell Assay |
Cell proliferation assay: Tumor cells (A431, MDA-MB-468, KB) were seeded in 96-well plates (5×103 cells/well) and cultured overnight. AG 1406 (serial dilutions: 0.01-10 μM) was added, and cells were incubated for 72 h. MTT reagent was added, incubated for 4 h, formazan crystals were dissolved in DMSO, and absorbance was measured at 570 nm. IC50 values were derived from dose-response curves [1]
- Western blot assay for signaling pathways: A431 cells were seeded in 6-well plates (2×105 cells/well) and serum-starved overnight. Cells were pre-treated with AG 1406 (0.1-1 μM) for 1 h, then stimulated with EGF (100 ng/mL) for 15 minutes. Cells were lysed, proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and probed with antibodies against p-EGFR (Tyr1173), EGFR, p-Akt (Ser473), Akt, p-ERK1/2, and ERK1/2. Band intensity was quantified by densitometry [1] - Cell cycle analysis: A431 cells were treated with AG 1406 (0.5 μM) for 72 h, fixed with ethanol, stained with propidium iodide, and analyzed by flow cytometry to determine cell cycle distribution [1] - Colony formation assay: A431 cells were seeded in 6-well plates (200 cells/well) and allowed to attach overnight. AG 1406 (0.05-0.2 μM) was added, and cells were cultured for 14 days. Colonies were fixed with formaldehyde, stained with crystal violet, and counted manually [1] |
| Animal Protocol |
Xenograft model establishment: Female nude mice (6-8 weeks old) were subcutaneously injected with 5×106 A431 or MDA-MB-468 cells (suspended in PBS/matrigel) into the right flank. Tumors were allowed to grow to ~100 mm3 before initiating treatment [1]
- Drug administration: Mice were randomly divided into vehicle control and AG 1406 treatment groups (n=8/group). AG 1406 was dissolved in 10% DMSO + 90% polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG400) and administered orally via gavage. A431-bearing mice received 50 mg/kg once daily for 21 days; MDA-MB-468-bearing mice received 75 mg/kg once daily for 18 days. Vehicle control mice received the same volume of 10% DMSO + 90% PEG400 [1] - Tumor and body weight monitoring: Tumor volume was measured every 3 days using calipers (volume = length × width² / 2). Body weight was recorded weekly to assess general toxicity [1] - Tissue collection: At the end of treatment, mice were euthanized, tumors were excised, weighed, and fixed in formalin for immunohistochemical analysis [1] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In nude mice treated with AG 1406 (orally daily at doses up to 75 mg/kg for 21 days), no significant weight loss (≤5% of initial body weight) or significant abnormalities in major organs (liver, kidney, spleen) were observed [1] - The protein binding rate of AG 1406 in mouse plasma was 91% ± 3% (ultrafiltration) [1]

| Additional Infomation |
AG 1406 is a synthetic small molecule inhibitor belonging to the quinazoline class of compounds that competitively binds to the ATP-binding pocket of EGFR tyrosine kinase [1]. The chemical structure of AG 1406 is characterized by a quinazoline core with a 4-aniline substituent, which is crucial for its high affinity and selectivity for EGFR [1]. AG 1406 exerts its antitumor effect by inhibiting EGFR-mediated signaling pathways, thereby blocking tumor cell proliferation, inducing cell cycle arrest, and inhibiting tumor angiogenesis [1]. This patent discloses AG 1406 as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of EGFR-overexpressing solid tumors, including lung cancer, breast cancer, head and neck cancer, and colorectal cancer [1].
