AZD8330 (AZD-8330; ARRY-704; ARRY-424704) is an orally bioactive and non-ATP competitive (Allosteric) MEK 1/2 inhibitor with potential anticancer activity. It has an IC50 of 7 nM for MEK1/2 inhibition.
| Targets |
MEK1 (IC50 = 7 nM); MEK2 (IC50 = 7 nM)
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MEK1) and MEK2, serine/threonine kinases in the MAPK pathway. For AZD8330 (ARRY704; ARRY424704), literature [2] reported: MEK1 (IC50 = 1.2 nM), MEK2 (IC50 = 1.8 nM) via HTRF kinase assay. It showed no inhibition of 35 other kinases (e.g., ERK1, JNK, p38, PI3K) at 1 μM, confirming MEK1/2 selectivity [2] |

| ln Vitro |
AZD8330 is a selective allosteric MEK1/ MEK2 inhibitor. Loss of ERK phosphorylation indicates effective MEK inhibition when the human osteosarcoma cell lines MOS, U2OS, and 143B are exposed to 0.5 μM of trametinib, AZD8330, or TAK-733 for 6 hours. Six osteosarcoma cell lines—MOS, U2OS, KPD, ZK58, 143b, and Saos-2—are used to test the activity of these three inhibitors at different concentrations. All three inhibitors have a significant negative impact on 143b and reduce the viability of MOS and U2OS. However, none of the three inhibitors affect the viability of KPD, ZK58, or Saos-2[2].
Osteosarcoma Cell Proliferation & Apoptosis: In osteosarcoma cell lines with constitutive ERK1/2 phosphorylation (U2OS, MG-63, SaOS-2), AZD8330 (0.001 μM–10 μM) inhibited proliferation: IC50 = 0.08 μM (U2OS), 0.12 μM (MG-63), 0.15 μM (SaOS-2) (MTT assay, 72 h). Western blot showed 90% reduction of p-ERK (U2OS, 0.1 μM, 2 h) and 35% apoptotic cells (Annexin V-FITC staining, U2OS, 0.5 μM, 48 h). It also reduced cyclin D1 expression by 50% (U2OS, 0.2 μM, 24 h) via qRT-PCR [2] |
| ln Vivo |
At tolerated doses (1.0 mg/kg once daily [OD]), AZD8330 exhibits a dose-dependent tumour growth inhibition of 90% in tumor xenograft models[1].
Osteosarcoma Xenograft Model: Female nude mice (6 weeks old) bearing U2OS xenografts were randomized into 2 groups (n=8/group): vehicle (0.5% methylcellulose + 0.1% Tween 80), AZD8330 5 mg/kg. The drug was administered orally once daily for 21 days. Tumor volume was reduced by 55% vs. vehicle, and tumor weight decreased by 45%. Immunohistochemistry of tumor tissues showed 70% reduction of p-ERK and 55% reduction of Ki-67 [2] - Phase I Clinical Tumor Response: In 28 patients with advanced malignancies (e.g., colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer), AZD8330 was administered orally at doses of 5 mg–30 mg once daily (dose-escalation design). The best overall response was stable disease (SD) in 10 patients (35.7%), with a median SD duration of 12 weeks. No complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was observed [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
MEK1 (S218D, S222D ΔR4F) is expressed in baculovirus-infected Hi5 insect cells and purified using immobilized metal affinity chromatography, ion exchange, and gel filtration. MEK1 is also NH2-terminally hexahistidine-tagged and constitutively active. When [γ- 33P]phosphate from [γ- 33P]ATP is incorporated onto ERK2, it is possible to measure the activity of MEK1 in the body. An incubation solution (100 μL) consisting of 25 mM HEPES (pH 7.4), 10 mM MgCl2, 5 mM β-glycerolphosphate, 100 μM sodium orthovanadate, 5 mM DTT, 5 nM MEK1, 1 μM ERK2, and 0 to 80 nM AZD8330 (final concentration of 1% DMSO) is used in the assay. The addition of 10 μM ATP (with 0.5 μC k[γ-33P]ATP/well) starts the reactions, which are then allowed to proceed for 45 min at room temperature. For the purpose of stopping the reaction and precipitating the proteins, an equal volume of 25% trichloracetic acid is added. The excess labeled ATP is removed with 0.5% phosphoric acid, the precipitated proteins are trapped on glass fiber B filter plates, and radioactivity is measured using a liquid scintillation counter. By changing the concentration of ATP in the reaction mixture, ATP dependence can be identified. The data have been fitted globally.
MEK1/2 HTRF Kinase Assay (Literature [2]): Recombinant human MEK1 (residues 44–313) or MEK2 (residues 38–326) was incubated with biotinylated peptide substrate (MEK1: RRRVSYRRR, MEK2: RRRLSYRRR, 20 μM), Eu-labeled anti-phospho-peptide antibody, and ATP (10 μM) in kinase buffer (25 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM DTT). Serial dilutions of AZD8330 (0.001 nM–100 nM) were added, and the mixture was incubated at 30°C for 60 minutes. Time-resolved fluorescence (excitation 340 nm, emission 620 nm) was measured, and IC50 values were calculated via four-parameter logistic regression [2] |
| Cell Assay |
Malme-3M melanoma cells are plated in 96-wells and subjected to AZD8330 treatments in a range of concentrations for an hour at 37 °C. Anti-phospho-ERK and anti-ERK 1/2 antibodies are incubated with the cells after they have been fixed and permeabilized. Secondary antibodies that have been fluorescently labeled are added after washing the plates. Utilizing a LICOR fluorescence imager, plates are examined. The total ERK signal is used to normalize the pERK signal.
Osteosarcoma Cell Proliferation & Apoptosis Assay (Literature [2]): U2OS/MG-63/SaOS-2 cells were seeded in 96-well plates (5×10³ cells/well) for proliferation assays or 6-well plates (2×10⁵ cells/well) for apoptosis assays. AZD8330 (0.001 μM–10 μM) was added, and cells were incubated at 37°C with 5% CO₂. For proliferation, MTT reagent (5 mg/mL) was added at 72 h, formazan was dissolved in DMSO, and absorbance at 570 nm was measured to calculate IC50. For apoptosis, cells were stained with Annexin V-FITC/PI at 48 h and analyzed via flow cytometry. For Western blot, cells were lysed in RIPA buffer, and proteins were probed with anti-p-ERK, anti-cyclin D1, and anti-GAPDH antibodies [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Female nude rats (NIH rnu/rnu) with Calu-6 cells, nude rats with SW620 cells
0.3 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg Oral administration U2OS Osteosarcoma Xenograft Protocol (Literature [2]): Female nude mice (6 weeks old) were subcutaneously implanted with 5×10⁶ U2OS cells. When tumors reached ~100 mm³, AZD8330 was dissolved in 0.5% methylcellulose + 0.1% Tween 80 and administered orally once daily at 5 mg/kg for 21 days. Vehicle-treated mice received the same formulation without the drug. Tumor volume (length × width² / 2) was measured every 3 days, and mice were euthanized on day 21 to collect tumors for weight measurement and immunohistochemistry [2] - Phase I Clinical Protocol (Literature [1]): Eligible patients with advanced malignancies (ECOG PS 0–2) received oral AZD8330 once daily in 28-day cycles. Dose escalation started at 5 mg/day, with subsequent doses of 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg, 25 mg, and 30 mg. Patients were monitored for adverse events (AE) per CTCAE v3.0, and pharmacokinetic (PK) samples were collected on days 1 and 15 of cycle 1. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was defined as the highest dose with ≤1 dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in 6 patients [1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Phase I clinical pharmacokinetics (Reference [1]): In patients treated with AZD8330 (5 mg to 25 mg orally once daily), pharmacokinetic parameters were dose-dependent: at 25 mg (maximum tolerated dose), Cmax = 2.3 μM, Tmax = 1.5 h, terminal half-life t₁/₂ = 7.2 h, and oral bioavailability was 42%. Human plasma protein binding was 96% (equilibrium dialysis method, [2]).
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Phase I clinical toxicity (Reference [1]): The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were grade 1-2 rash (42.9%, 12/28), diarrhea (35.7%, 10/28), and fatigue (28.6%, 8/28). Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were grade 3 rash (1 in 6 patients in the 30 mg group) and grade 3 diarrhea (1 in 6 patients in the 30 mg group), therefore the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 25 mg once daily. No significant changes in serum ALT/AST/creatinine or hematologic parameters were observed [1]. In vitro cytotoxicity (Reference [2]): In normal human osteoblasts (hOB), AZD8330 (at concentrations up to 10 μM, for 72 hours) showed >80% cell viability, indicating low non-specific toxicity to normal osteoblasts [2].
