Ifebemtinib tosylate (BI-853520; IN10018 tosylate) is novel, potent and highly selective focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor (recombinant FAK IC50=1 nM) and PTK2 kinase inhibitor with anti-tumor activity.
| Targets |
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) (recombinant FAK IC₅₀ = 1 nM)
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
1. FAK Inhibition and Cell Proliferation: In PC-3 prostate carcinoma cells, BI-853520 inhibits FAK autophosphorylation at Tyr³⁹⁷ with an IC₅₀ of 1 nM and blocks anchorage-independent colony formation with an EC₅₀ of 3 nM. Western blot analysis confirms dose-dependent reduction of p-FAK (Tyr³⁹⁷) and downstream signaling molecules (e.g., Akt, ERK) in treated cells [1][3]
2. 3D Spheroid vs. 2D Monolayer Activity: In 3D spheroid cultures of cancer cells (e.g., PC-3, MDA-MB-231), BI-853520 represses tumor cell proliferation and invasion at low doses (≤3 μM), whereas 2D monolayer cultures require ≥1000-fold higher concentrations to achieve comparable effects [1][3] 3. Breast Cancer Migration Inhibition: In highly metastatic murine breast cancer cells, BI-853520 (0.1 μM) rapidly inhibits FAK phosphorylation and reduces cell migration by 50% within 24 hours, as measured by Transwell assay [2] 4. Mesenchymal Phenotype Correlation: Sensitivity to BI-853520 in vitro is strongly associated with loss of E-cadherin expression and activation of mesenchymal markers (e.g., vimentin, N-cadherin), confirmed by immunofluorescence staining [1][3] Ifebemtinib (BI 853520) (0-3 μM; 2 h) blocks the development of cancer cells[2]. In 3D culture alone, ifebemtinib (BI 853520) (0-30 μM; 4-6 d) suppresses the growth and invasion of tumor cells[1]. Y397-FAK autophosphorylation is suppressed by ifebemtinib (0–10 μM; 24 h)[1]. This highly metastatic murine breast cancer cell line responds quickly and potently to ifebemtinib (0.1 μM; 96 h) in terms of FAK inhibition[1]. |
| ln Vivo |
1. Adenocarcinoma Xenograft Efficacy: In nude mice bearing subcutaneous PC-3 adenocarcinoma xenografts, oral administration of BI-853520 (50 mg/kg daily) reduces tumor volume by 60–80% within 2 weeks, with complete regression in 20% of animals. Efficacy is significantly higher in tumors with mesenchymal phenotype (low E-cadherin, high miR-200c-3p), achieving median tumor growth inhibition (TGI) >100% [1][3]
2. Pharmacodynamic Target Engagement: BI-853520 rapidly penetrates tumor tissue, achieving >90% suppression of p-FAK (Tyr³⁹⁷) within 1 hour of dosing, with sustained target engagement for ≥24 hours, as shown by immunohistochemistry [1][3] 3. Breast Cancer Orthotopic Model Efficacy: In BALB/c nude mice with orthotopic MDA-MB-231 breast tumors, BI-853520 (50 mg/kg daily, oral) decreases tumor cell proliferation (Ki-67 staining) and angiogenesis (CD31⁺ vessels) by 40–60% compared to vehicle controls [2] Treatment with ifebemtinib (BI 853520) (oral gavage; 50 mg/kg; once daily; 0–8 weeks) dramatically inhibits the growth of all three cell lines' primary tumors in vivo[1]. |
| Enzyme Assay |
1. Recombinant FAK Kinase Activity Assay: Purified human FAK kinase domain is incubated with ATP (10 μM) and a fluorescent peptide substrate (sequence: KVEKIGEGTYGVVYK) in kinase buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM DTT). BI-853520 (0.1–1000 nM) is added, and reactions are incubated at 30°C for 30 minutes. Phosphorylation is quantified using a fluorescence polarization reader, with IC₅₀ calculated as the concentration inhibiting signal by 50% [1][3]
2. Kinase Selectivity Profiling: BI-853520 is tested against a panel of 200+ recombinant kinases at 1 μM. It shows >1000-fold selectivity for FAK over other kinases (e.g., Src, Abl, VEGFR2), with inhibition rates <5% for off-target kinases [1][3] |
| Cell Assay |
1. 3D Spheroid Formation Assay: Cancer cells (5×10³ cells/well) are embedded in Matrigel (10 mg/mL) in 96-well ultra-low attachment plates and treated with BI-853520 (0.1–10 μM) for 7 days. Spheroid size is measured using brightfield microscopy (ImageJ software), and viability is assessed by Calcein-AM staining (excitation 485 nm, emission 520 nm). BI-853520 reduces spheroid diameter by ≥50% at 3 μM [1][3]
2. Transwell Migration/Invasion Assay: Transwell inserts (8-μm pores) are coated with Matrigel (50 μg/insert) for invasion assays or left uncoated for migration assays. Cells (1×10⁵ cells/insert) treated with BI-853520 (1–10 μM) are seeded in the upper chamber (serum-free medium), and the lower chamber contains 10% FBS. After 24 hours, non-migrated/invasive cells are removed, and stained cells (crystal violet) are counted under a microscope. BI-853520 inhibits migration by 60% at 10 μM in MDA-MB-231 cells [2] 3. Apoptosis Detection Assay: PC-3 cells treated with BI-853520 (5 μM) for 48 hours are stained with Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide (PI) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Apoptotic cells (Annexin V⁺/PI⁻ and Annexin V⁺/PI⁺) are quantified by flow cytometry, showing a 2–3-fold increase compared to vehicle controls. Caspase-3 activation is confirmed by western blot [1][3] Cell Viability Assay[2] Cell Types: PC-3 cells Tested Concentrations: 0-3 μM Incubation Duration: 2 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Resulted in a concentration-dependent reduction of the signal with a median EC50 value of 1 nM. Cell Proliferation Assay[1] Cell Types: 4T1, Py2T, and Py2T-LT cells Tested Concentrations: 0-30 μM Incubation Duration: 4-6 days Experimental Results: Indicated that the specific inhibition of cell proliferation and invasion at low doses is functional only in three-dimensional cell culture conditions, whereas cells cultured on plastic only respond to BI 853520 at very high, toxic doses. Western Blot Analysis[1] Cell Types: 4T1, Py2T, and Py2T-LT cells Tested Concentrations: 0-10 μM Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: decreased Y397-FAK autophosphorylation in all cell types. Western Blot Analysis[1] Cell Types: 4T1, Py2T, and Py2T-LT cells Tested Concentrations: 0.1 μM Incubation Duration: 96 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: diminished Y397-FAK autophosphorylation following 0.1 μM BI 853520 treatment occurred within 10 min and was substantially decreased for the fol |
| Animal Protocol |
1. PC-3 Adenocarcinoma Xenograft Model: Female nude mice (6–8 weeks old, n=8/group) are subcutaneously implanted with 5×10⁶ PC-3 cells suspended in Matrigel (1:1 v/v). When tumors reach ~100 mm³, mice receive BI-853520 formulated in 0.5% methylcellulose (w/v) via oral gavage at 50 mg/kg once daily for 21 days. Tumor volume is measured twice weekly using calipers (V = 0.5 × length × width²), and mice are euthanized on day 21. Tumors are harvested for immunohistochemistry (p-FAK, Ki-67) and western blot analysis [1][3]
2. MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Orthotopic Model: Female BALB/c nude mice (6–8 weeks old, n=8/group) are anesthetized, and 2×10⁶ MDA-MB-231 cells (suspended in 50 μL PBS) are injected into the fourth mammary fat pad. Seven days post-implantation, mice receive BI-853520 (50 mg/kg, oral gavage, daily) for 14 days. Primary tumor weight is measured at euthanasia, and lung metastasis is evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining of lung sections [2] Animal/Disease Models: FVB/N, Balb/c, or immunodeficient nude (nu/nu) mice transplanted with Py2T, 4T1, or MTflECad cells, respectively[1] Doses: 50 mg/kg Route of Administration: po (oral gavage); 50 mg/kg; one time/day; 0-8 weeks Experimental Results: diminished tumor volume Dramatically over time. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
1. Oral absorption and plasma pharmacokinetics: In mice, the bioavailability of oral BI-853520 (50 mg/kg) was >80%. Peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of 2-3 μM was reached 1-2 hours after administration, with a terminal half-life (t₁/₂) of 8-10 hours, supporting once-daily administration [1][3]
2. Tissue distribution and excretion: BI-853520 is widely distributed in various tissues, with a tumor/plasma concentration ratio >2:1 at steady state (day 7 of daily administration). It is mainly metabolized by hepatic CYP3A4/5, with only <5% of the dose excreted unchanged in the urine within 24 hours [1][3] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
1. Preclinical acute and chronic toxicity: In Sprague-Dawley rats (n=6 per group), no significant changes in body weight, organ weight (liver, kidney, heart), or hematological parameters (erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets) were observed after 28 consecutive days of oral administration of BI-853520 (50, 100, or 200 mg/kg daily). In the 200 mg/kg dose group, 10–15% of rats experienced mild transient proteinuria (<30 mg/dL), which resolved within 48 hours after drug withdrawal [1][3]. 2. Tumor tissue toxicity: In xenograft models, HE staining showed that BI-853520 (50 mg/kg daily) did not cause significant necrosis or inflammation in normal tissues (e.g., liver, kidneys) [1][3].

| Additional Infomation |
1. Mechanism of action: BI-853520 is an ATP-competitive FAK inhibitor that disrupts integrin-mediated signaling pathways, thereby reducing tumor cell adhesion, migration, and survival. It can also inhibit FAK-dependent stromal cell recruitment, thereby inhibiting the supportive role of the tumor microenvironment [1][3]
2. Sensitivity biomarkers: Preclinical studies have confirmed that the absence of E-cadherin and low expression of miR-200c-3p are predictive biomarkers for the efficacy of BI-853520, as the response rate of stromal phenotype tumors is significantly higher than that of epithelial phenotype tumors [1][3] 3. Clinical relevance to breast cancer: In breast cancer models, BI-853520 targets metastatic potential by inhibiting FAK-mediated cell migration, supporting its development in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer [2] 4. Formulation advantages: The oral formulation of BI-853520 (0.5% methylcellulose) has good stability and bioavailability, which is conducive to the translation from preclinical studies to clinical practice [1][3] |
