Balixafortide (POL-6326), a synthetic cyclopeptide derived from polyphemusin, is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4, IC 50=10 nM) with anticancer activity. CXCR4 is a member of the G-coupled protein receptor (GPCR) transmembrane receptor class. Balixafortide is a very potent, well tolerated and highly selective next generation CXCR4 antagonist derived over the past decade through multiple rounds of optimization starting from the natural product polyphemusin. Clinical proof-of-concept was achieved in a Ph 1/2 study in combination with Eribulin in metastatic HER2-neg breast cancer. The anti-cancer effects and pluripotent action of Balixafortide may include sensitization of tumor cells to chemotherapy, suppression of metastatic spread, inhibition of angiogenesis, and activation of the immune system.

ln Vitro |
Benaxafortide significantly reduces pERK/pAKT signaling in the lymphoma lines Jurkat (IC50 < 400 nM) and Namalwa (IC50 < 200 nM). In MDA MB 231 breast cancer cells (IC50 < 20 nM), Namalwa and Jurkat cells (IC50 < 10 nM), benaxafortide effectively inhibits SDF-1 dependent chemotaxis (Table 1)[1].
|
ln Vivo |
Balixafortide has been optimized with balanced plasma protein binding, increased plasma and microsomal stability, and favorable mouse absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties in mind[1].
|
Enzyme Assay |
Balixafortide was tested in a HTRF-based CXCR4 ligand binding assay, in functional assays (Calcium flux and beta arrestin), and further profiled in a large panel of other receptors including CXCR7. Effects on tumor cell sensitization were followed with an intracellular pERK / pAKT signaling assay. Tumor cell migration was assessed by chemotaxis assays, and inhibition of angiogenesis was determined by HUVEC sprouting. Evidence for immune cell activation came from evaluation of corresponding marker such as interferon gamma. Balixafortide was in detail profiled in an extensive in vitro ADME panel[1].
|
Cell Assay |
Balixafortide binds CXCR4 with high affinity (IC50 < 10nM). It blocks beta arrestin recruitment and Calcium flux with IC50s < 10nM. A high 1000-fold selectivity window was demonstrated in a large panel of receptors including CXCR7. Balixafortide potently inhibits pERK / pAKT signaling in the lymphoma lines Namalwa (IC50 < 200 nM) and Jurkat (IC50 < 400 nM). Balixafortide efficiently blocks SDF-1 dependent chemotaxis of MDA MB 231 breast cancer cells (IC50 < 20 nM), Namalwa and Jurkat cells (IC50 < 10 nM). Receptor occupancy wash-out studies with competitive antibody 12G5 revealed prolonged binding of Balixafortide to CXCR4. In addition, Balixafortide was optimized for favorable mouse and human ADME properties with balanced plasma protein binding, greater plasma and microsomal stability[1].

Additional Infomation |
Balixafortide is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03786094 (Pivotal Study in HER2 Negative, Locally Recurrent or Metastatic Breast Cancer).
Balixafortide is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) with receptor binding and hematopoietic stem cell-mobilization activities. Balixafortide binds to the chemokine receptor CXCR4, thereby preventing the binding of stromal derived factor-1 (SDF-1 or CXCL12) to the CXCR4 receptor and subsequent receptor activation. This may induce the mobilization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from the bone marrow into blood. CXCR4, a chemokine receptor belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) gene family, plays an important role in chemotaxis and angiogenesis and is upregulated in several tumor cell types; CXCL12/CXCR4 interaction induces retention of hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow.
