Product Description
Darinaparsin (ZIO-101, SP-02) is a novel and potent mitochondrial-targeted small molecule and an organic arsenic that is being developed for the treatment of various hematologic and solid cancers. Intravenous darinaparsin showed evidence of clinical activity in malignant lymphoma, particularly peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), in a Phase II study conducted in the U.S. In order to treat PTCL, darinaparsin received Orphan Drug Designation in the U.S. and Europe. Solasia plans to apply for a similar designation in Japan. Inorganic arsenicals (iAs) in vivo produce darinaparsin, a highly toxic metabolic intermediate. When glutathione (GSH) levels are low, darinaparsin appears to produce volatile cytotoxic arsenic compounds, though the precise mechanism of action is unknown. In addition, this substance or its byproducts may initiate cell death by interrupting the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and may exhibit antiangiogenic effects. The arsenic compounds generated from darinaparsin disrupt mitochondrial bioenergetics, producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inducing ROS-mediated tumor cell apoptosis.
Darinaparsin (ZIO101; SP02) (CAS#: 69819-86-9) is a novel organic arsenic compound, specifically a mitochondrial-targeting agent, that functions as an inducer of apoptosis and oxidative stress. It is an intravenously administered anticancer agent that disrupts mitochondrial bioenergetics, increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and modulates intracellular signaling to induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Its modified chemical structure is designed to enhance its therapeutic index and reduce toxicity compared to traditional arsenic trioxide therapies.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Darinaparsin's mechanism of action involves multiple cellular targets. It accumulates in mitochondria, induces mitochondrial membrane depolarization, and triggers reactive oxygen species (ROS) bursts, thereby activating intrinsic apoptosis pathways. It also inhibits the alternative NF-κB pathway and prevents the recruitment of the transcriptional coregulator Brahma-related gene 1 (BRG1) to the HMOX1 promoter. When glutathione (GSH) levels are low, it appears to produce volatile cytotoxic arsenic compounds.
ln Vitro
Darinaparsin is cytotoxic to prostate cancer cell lines and live prostate cancer cells at low micromolar concentrations, and it has the important property of inhibiting the so-called tumor-initiating cells (TIC) subpopulations[1].
In vitro, Darinaparsin demonstrates potent anticancer activity against a range of cancer cell lines. It induces apoptosis and oxidative stress to a greater extent than arsenic trioxide (As₂O₃), within a c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase-dependent mechanism. It has shown IC₅₀ values of 0.5–3.0 µM against HL-60 cells. It is effective against hematologic malignancies and solid tumors, including those resistant to conventional therapies.
ln Vivo
Darinaparsin reduces the ability of prostate cancer cells to initiate tumors and slows the growth of the castrate-resistant Du145 prostate tumor grown as a xenograft in mice[1].
In vivo, Darinaparsin has demonstrated antitumor activity in preclinical models and is being investigated in clinical trials. It functions as a tumor hypoxic cytotoxin and radiosensitizer, enhancing the effects of radiation therapy. Its ability to induce apoptosis and disrupt mitochondrial function in cancer cells translates to tumor growth inhibition in animal models. It is currently under preclinical and clinical investigation for relapsed/refractory lymphomas and solid tumors.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro activity of Darinaparsin is assessed using cell viability and apoptosis assays. In a standard protocol, cancer cells are seeded in multi-well plates and treated with increasing concentrations of Darinaparsin for 48-72 hours. Cell viability is measured using an MTT or CellTiter-Glo assay. Apoptosis is quantified by staining cells with Annexin V and propidium iodide, followed by flow cytometry analysis. The IC50 is calculated from the dose-response curve.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Darinaparsin involve studying its effects on mitochondrial function and ROS production. Cells are treated with the compound, and mitochondrial membrane potential is measured using a fluorescent dye such as JC-1. ROS levels are detected using a cell-permeable fluorescent probe like DCFH-DA. These assays confirm the compound's mechanism of action, which involves mitochondrial disruption and oxidative stress.
Animal Protocol
The in vivo efficacy of Darinaparsin has been evaluated in xenograft mouse models. In these studies, human tumor cells are implanted subcutaneously into immunodeficient mice. When tumors reach a certain size, the animals are treated with Darinaparsin via intravenous injection. Tumor growth is monitored by caliper measurements, and tumor weights are assessed at the end of the study. The compound's ability to inhibit tumor growth is compared to control groups.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Darinaparsin is administered intravenously. It is a small molecule with a molecular weight of 398.31 and a molecular formula of C₆H₁₄AsNO₃S. In clinical trials, it has been given for five consecutive days, repeated every 28 days for up to six months. It is being investigated in phase 1 and phase 2 trials for various hematologic cancers and solid tumors.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity of Darinaparsin has been evaluated in preclinical and clinical studies. As an organic arsenic compound, its toxicity profile is related to its mechanism of action, which involves mitochondrial disruption and oxidative stress. However, its modified chemical structure is designed to enhance its therapeutic index and reduce toxicity compared to traditional arsenic trioxide therapies. The most common adverse events are expected to be related to its effects on rapidly dividing cells.

Additional Infomation
(2S)-2-amino-5-[[(2R)-1-(carboxymethylamino)-3-(dimethylarsiothio)-1-oxopropyl-2-yl]amino]-5-oxovaleric acid is a peptide. Dalinapasine is a small-molecule organic arsenic compound with potential antitumor activity. Although its exact mechanism of action is unclear, dalinapasine is a highly toxic metabolic intermediate of inorganic arsenic (iAs) in vivo, and it appears to generate volatile cytotoxic arsenic compounds at low glutathione (GSH) concentrations. The arsenic compounds generated by dalinapasine disrupt mitochondrial bioenergetics, producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inducing ROS-mediated tumor cell apoptosis; furthermore, the compound or its byproducts may initiate cell death by interfering with the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and may exhibit anti-angiogenic effects. Compared to inorganic arsenic compounds such as arsenic trioxide (As2O3), dalinapasine appears to have a broader therapeutic window.
