Product Description

Ripretinib HCl (DCC2618; DCC-2618; Qinlock), the hydrochloride salt of DCC-2618, is an orally bioactive pan KIT and PDGFRA inhibitor approved in 2020 for the treatment of adults with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor. It functions by obstructing several additional kinase targets associated with systemic mastocytosis, including KIT D816V.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
KIT (wild-type IC50=14 nM; V560G mutant IC50=12 nM; D816V mutant IC50=16 nM; V560G/D816V double mutant IC50=15 nM); PDGFRα (wild-type IC50=21 nM; D842V mutant IC50=19 nM) [1]
KIT and PDGFRα kinases ( focuses on activity against drug-resistant mutants) [2]
ln Vitro

DCC-2618 is a highly effective, orally bioactive, and selective pan KIT and PDGFRA inhibitor that inhibits several kinase targets associated with systemic mastocytosis, including KIT D816V. DCC-2618 suppresses the growth and endurance of multiple human mast cell lines (such as HMC-1, ROSA, and MCPV-1) in addition to primary neoplastic mast cells isolated from patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis (IC50<1 μM). DCC-2618 also inhibited the growth and survival of leukemic monocytes from patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia with or without concurrent systemic mastocytosis, blast cells from patients with acute myeloid leukemia, and primary neoplastic eosinophils from patients with systemic mastocytosis or eosinophilic leukemia. DCC-2618 is presently being studied in clinical trials and has demonstrated efficacy in vivo in patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis.


Potent inhibition of KIT/PDGFRα-mutant cancer cell proliferation: DCC-2618 HCl exhibited concentration-dependent growth inhibition in KIT-mutant cell lines: HMC-1.1 (V560G, IC50=30 nM), HMC-1.2 (V560G/D816V, IC50=40 nM), and PDGFRα-mutant Ba/F3 cells (D842V, IC50=20 nM). No significant activity was observed in FLT3-ITD-positive MV4-11 cells (IC50>1000 nM) or KIT-negative HL-60 cells (IC50>1000 nM), confirming target selectivity [1]
- Blockade of KIT/PDGFRα downstream signaling: Western blot analysis showed that DCC-2618 HCl (10-100 nM) dose-dependently inhibited phosphorylation of KIT (Y703, Y721) and downstream effectors AKT (S473) and ERK1/2 (T202/Y204) in HMC-1.2 cells, with complete inhibition at 100 nM. Total KIT/PDGFRα protein levels remained unchanged, indicating direct kinase inhibition [1]
- Induction of apoptosis in mutant cells: HMC-1.2 cells treated with DCC-2618 HCl (50-200 nM) for 48 hours showed increased Annexin V/PI-positive cells (25-68% vs 5% in vehicle control) via flow cytometry. Caspase-3/7 activation was also detected, confirming apoptotic cell death [1]
- Inhibition of clonogenic potential: Colony formation assay in HMC-1.2 cells showed that DCC-2618 HCl (10-50 nM) reduced colony number by 40-90% compared to vehicle, with IC50=22 nM, demonstrating long-term antiproliferative effects [1]
- Activity against primary patient cells: Primary mast cells from patients with systemic mastocytosis (SM) carrying KIT D816V mutation were treated with DCC-2618 HCl (10-100 nM), resulting in 30-75% inhibition of cell viability, confirming clinical relevance [1]
ln Vivo


Inhibition of HMC-1.2 xenograft growth: Nude mice (n=6/group) subcutaneously implanted with 5×10^6 HMC-1.2 cells were treated with DCC-2618 HCl (30 mg/kg/day, oral gavage) for 21 days. Tumor volume was measured twice weekly, and DCC-2618 HCl significantly inhibited tumor growth by 82% compared to vehicle control (p<0.001). Final tumor weight was reduced from 1.2 g (vehicle) to 0.22 g (treatment group) [1]
- Prolonged survival in PDGFRα D842V Ba/F3 xenografts: NSG mice (n=8/group) bearing PDGFRα D842V Ba/F3 xenografts were treated with DCC-2618 HCl (30 mg/kg/day, oral). Median survival was extended from 14 days (vehicle) to 32 days (treatment group) (p<0.001), with 25% of mice surviving >40 days [1]
- Target inhibition in vivo: Western blot of HMC-1.2 xenograft tissues showed reduced p-KIT (Y721) and p-ERK1/2 levels in DCC-2618 HCl-treated mice, confirming on-target activity in vivo [1]
Enzyme Assay
In order to assess KIT and BTK signaling, ROSAKIT WT, ROSAKIT D816V, HMC-1.1, and HMC-1.2 cells were incubated for 4 hours at 37°C in either control medium or DCC-2618 (0.5–5 μM). Western blotting was done essentially according to other instructions. In order to assess the downstream signaling pathways of KIT, HMC-1.1, HMC-1.2, ROSAKIT WT, and ROSAKIT D816V cells were initially pre-cultured for an entire night in Iscove-modified Dulbecco medium that was devoid of stem cell factor and fetal calf serum. DCC-2618 (0.001–10 μM) was then applied to 106 cells from each line for 90 minutes at 37°C. Following treatment, 10% stem cell factor-containing supernatants of Chinese hamster ovary cells transfected with the murine scf (kl) gene (CHO-KL) were added to ROSAKIT WT cells and incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature. After that, Western blotting was carried out essentially as previously mentioned.
Recombinant KIT kinase activity assay: Purified recombinant KIT kinase domains (wild-type, V560G, D816V, V560G/D816V) were incubated with ATP (10 μM) and a biotinylated peptide substrate in the presence of serial dilutions of DCC-2618 HCl (0.1 nM-1 μM). Phosphorylated substrate was detected using a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assay, with streptavidin-conjugated europium and anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. IC50 values were calculated by nonlinear regression analysis of dose-response curves [1]
- Recombinant PDGFRα kinase activity assay: The same HTRF-based method was used for PDGFRα kinase domains (wild-type, D842V). Reaction conditions included ATP (10 μM) and PDGFRα-specific biotinylated peptide substrate. DCC-2618 HCl was tested at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 1 μM, and IC50 values were determined as described for KIT [1]
- Kinase selectivity assay: DCC-2618 HCl (1 μM) was screened against a panel of 403 human kinases using a radiometric ATP incorporation assay. Inhibition rates were calculated relative to vehicle control, and selectivity was defined as the ratio of IC50 for off-target kinases to IC50 for KIT D816V [1]
Cell Assay
The survival and proliferation of drug-exposed cells—primary or cell line—were examined. In the Online Supplementary Methods, the bioassays used are described.
Cell viability assay: KIT/PDGFRα-mutant cell lines (HMC-1.1, HMC-1.2, PDGFRα D842V Ba/F3) and control cell lines (MV4-11, HL-60) were seeded in 96-well plates (5×10^3 cells/well) and treated with DCC-2618 HCl (0.1 nM-10 μM) for 72 hours. Cell viability was measured using a colorimetric MTT assay, and IC50 values were calculated from three independent experiments (mean ± SD) [1]
- Western blot for signaling analysis: HMC-1.2 cells were seeded in 6-well plates (2×10^5 cells/well) and serum-starved for 16 hours. Cells were treated with DCC-2618 HCl (10-100 nM) for 2 hours, then harvested and lysed in RIPA buffer. Protein lysates (30 μg/lane) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and probed with antibodies against p-KIT (Y703, Y721), total KIT, p-AKT (S473), total AKT, p-ERK1/2 (T202/Y204), total ERK1/2, and GAPDH (loading control). Chemiluminescent detection was used to visualize bands, and densitometric analysis was performed [1]
- Apoptosis assay: HMC-1.2 cells (1×10^6 cells/mL) were treated with DCC-2618 HCl (50-200 nM) for 48 hours. Cells were washed with PBS, stained with Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide (PI) for 15 minutes at room temperature, and analyzed by flow cytometry. The percentage of apoptotic cells (Annexin V-positive, PI-negative or positive) was quantified [1]
- Colony formation assay: HMC-1.2 cells were seeded in 6-well plates (200 cells/well) and treated with DCC-2618 HCl (10-50 nM). Medium was changed every 3 days, and after 14 days, colonies were fixed with methanol, stained with crystal violet, and counted. Colony formation efficiency was calculated as (number of colonies in treatment group / number of colonies in vehicle group) × 100% [1]
- Primary patient cell assay: Bone marrow-derived mast cells from SM patients (n=3) were isolated and cultured in medium containing cytokines. Cells were treated with DCC-2618 HCl (10-100 nM) for 72 hours, and cell viability was measured using a trypan blue exclusion assay [1]
Animal Protocol



HMC-1.2 xenograft assay: Female nude mice (6-8 weeks old) were subcutaneously injected with 5×10^6 HMC-1.2 cells suspended in matrigel (1:1 ratio with PBS) into the right flank. When tumors reached a volume of 100-150 mm³, mice were randomly divided into vehicle and DCC-2618 HCl groups (n=6/group). DCC-2618 HCl was dissolved in 0.5% methylcellulose and administered via oral gavage at 30 mg/kg once daily for 21 days. Tumor volume was measured twice weekly using calipers (volume = π/6 × length × width²), and mice were sacrificed at the end of treatment to collect tumor tissues for Western blot analysis [1]
- PDGFRα D842V Ba/F3 xenograft survival assay: Female NSG mice (6-8 weeks old) were intravenously injected with 1×10^6 PDGFRα D842V Ba/F3 cells. Three days later, mice were randomized into vehicle and DCC-2618 HCl groups (n=8/group). DCC-2618 HCl (30 mg/kg/day, oral gavage) was administered daily until mice reached humane endpoint criteria. Survival was monitored daily, and median survival was calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis [1]
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Oral bioavailability: In rats, the oral bioavailability of DCC-2618 HCl (10 mg/kg) was 45%, with a Cmax of 1.2 μg/mL and an AUC0-24h of 8.5 μg·h/mL [1]. Terminal half-life: In rats, the terminal half-life (t1/2) of intravenous DCC-2618 HCl (5 mg/kg) was 6.2 hours, and the systemic clearance was 1.8 mL/min/kg [1]. Plasma protein binding: As determined by equilibrium dialysis, DCC-2618 HCl showed high plasma protein binding rates (92-94%) in human, rat, and canine plasmas [1].
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
In vitro toxicity: At concentrations up to 1 μM, DCC-2618 HCl did not show significant cytotoxicity to normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (cell viability >85% vs solvent control group) [1] - In vivo toxicity: Rats were orally administered DCC-2618 HCl (30 mg/kg/day) for 28 days and did not show significant weight loss, hematological abnormalities (white blood cell count, red blood cell count, platelet count) or histopathological changes in major organs (liver, kidney, heart, lung, spleen) [1] - No significant toxicity was observed in xenotransplantation studies: Mice were orally administered DCC-2618 HCl (30 mg/kg/day) for 21-32 days and maintained normal weight without showing acute toxic symptoms (drowsiness, diarrhea, hair loss) [1]

Additional Infomation
DCC-2618 HCl is a highly bioavailable, efficient, and selective small molecule inhibitor of KIT and PDGFRα kinases with specific activity against clinically relevant resistance mutations such as KIT D816V and PDGFRα D842V [1][2]. This compound targets the oncogenic KIT/PDGFRα signaling pathway, which drives the pathogenesis of systemic mast cell hyperplasia (SM), mast cell leukemia (MCL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) [1][2]. DCC-2618 HCl blocks downstream signaling pathways (PI3K/AKT, RAS/ERK) that are crucial for cell proliferation and survival, thereby inhibiting the growth of mutant cells and inducing their apoptosis [1]. Preclinical data support its clinical development. DCC-2618 HCl is used to treat systemic mastocytic (SM)-associated hematologic malignancies, including mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which are often unresponsive to conventional therapies [2]. DCC-2618 HCl has favorable pharmacokinetic properties (good oral bioavailability, moderate half-life, and high plasma protein binding) and favorable toxicity profiles, supporting its use as an oral therapeutic agent [1].
