Product Description
Indibulin is a synthetic small molecule with antimitotic and potential antineoplastic activities. Indibulin destabilizes tubulin polymerization and induces tumor cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by binding to a site on tubulin that is distinct from taxane- or Vinca alkaloid-binding sites. It has been demonstrated that this substance is effective against tumor cell lines that are taxane- and multidrug-resistant (MDR). Use this agent to look up any closed or ongoing clinical trials. (Thesaurus NCI).
Indibulin (D-24851, ZIO-301) is an orally available small-molecule microtubule destabilizer with antimitotic and potential antineoplastic activities. It was developed as an anticancer agent that selectively inhibits cancer cell proliferation by preventing proper mitotic spindle formation, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Unlike conventional tubulin inhibitors like taxanes and vinca alkaloids, Indibulin binds to a distinct site on tubulin, thereby avoiding common drug resistance mechanisms. It has demonstrated efficacy in preclinical and early clinical studies against various cancers, including breast and prostate cancers. A notable feature of Indibulin is its reduced neurotoxicity compared to traditional tubulin-targeting agents, attributed to its ability to discriminate between posttranslationally modified tubulin in mature neuronal microtubules and less-modified tubulin in nonneuronal microtubules.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Tubulin
Indibulin targets tubulin, a key protein involved in cell division, and acts as a microtubule destabilizer. It binds to a site on tubulin that is distinct from the taxane- or Vinca alkaloid-binding sites. By binding to tubulin, it inhibits tubulin polymerization, which disrupts the mitotic spindle formation necessary for cell division. This disruption activates mitotic checkpoint proteins Mad2 and BubR1, induces mitotic arrest, and ultimately leads to apoptosis.
ln Vitro
Indibulin (300-2100 nM; 48 hours) has an IC50 of 150 nM, which inhibits the growth of MCF-7 cells.
Indibulin (300, 600 nM; 48 hours) inhibits G2/M phase cells, suggesting that it prevents the cell cycle from progressing during mitosis[1].
Indibulin (150-600 nM; 24 hours) causes MCF-7 cells to undergo apoptosis[1].
When Indibulin (150-600 nM; 48 hours) at concentrations of 300 and 600 nM is used to treat MCF-7 cells, it produces cleaved fragments of the PARP protein[1].
Indibulin demonstrates potent antitumor activity in vitro. It blocks tubulin polymerization with an IC50 of 0.3 μM. The compound blocks cell cycle progression at metaphase and displays antitumor activity against a variety of malignancies in vitro, with IC50 values ranging from 0.036 to 0.285 μM. It inhibits the proliferation of a wide range of cancer cell lines, including A-375, BT-474, DU-145, HT-29, MCF7, PC-3, A549, and HepG2, among others.
ln Vivo
Indibulin induces complete tumor remission in the Yoshida AH13 rat sarcoma model in vivo. It displays oral availability and efficacy towards multidrug-resistant (MDR) tumor cells. In preclinical studies, the compound has demonstrated potent anticancer activity with minimal neurotoxicity. It has been evaluated in early clinical trials for the treatment of advanced solid tumors.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme assay for Indibulin involves measuring its ability to inhibit tubulin polymerization. In this cell-free system, purified tubulin is incubated with the compound, and the extent of polymerization is measured spectrophotometrically. The IC50 of 0.3 μM is determined from dose-response curves. Binding affinity to tubulin is assessed to confirm the compound’s interaction with its target.
Cell Assay
Cell Line: MCF-7 cells
Concentration: 300, 600, 900, 1200, 1500, 1800, 2100 nM
Incubation Time: 48 hours
Result: Inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cells with an IC50 of 150 nM.
In vitro cellular experiments involve treating cancer cell lines with Indibulin at concentrations typically ranging from 150 to 600 nM for 48 hours. Cell cycle analysis is performed using flow cytometry to assess the accumulation of cells in the G2/M phase, indicating mitotic arrest. Apoptosis is evaluated by assessing the activation of mitotic checkpoint proteins Mad2 and BubR1 and measuring markers of cell death.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments have been conducted using the Yoshida AH13 rat sarcoma model, where oral administration of Indibulin induced complete tumor remission. The compound has also been evaluated in various human tumor xenograft models in mice to assess its antitumor efficacy and pharmacokinetic properties. These studies typically involve daily oral dosing and monitoring of tumor growth inhibition.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Indibulin is orally available. A Phase I dose-finding and pharmacokinetic trial of orally administered Indibulin has been conducted in patients with advanced solid tumors. The compound has a molecular weight of 389.83 g/mol and a molecular formula of C22H16ClN3O2. It is soluble in DMSO but not in water.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Indibulin has a favorable toxicity profile compared to traditional tubulin-targeting agents, with significantly reduced neurotoxicity. This is due to its ability to discriminate between mature neuronal and nonneuronal tubulin. The compound has been evaluated in Phase I clinical trials, where its safety and tolerability were assessed in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Additional Infomation
Indibulin is a synthetic small molecule with antimitotic and potential antitumor activity. Indibulin binds to a site on microtubules that differs from the binding sites of taxanes or vinca alkaloids, thereby disrupting microtubule polymerization and inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in tumor cells. This drug has been shown to be effective against multidrug-resistant (MDR) and taxane-resistant tumor cell lines.
Drug indications
Investigations are underway for the treatment of solid tumors.

Indibulin is a novel microtubule inhibitor that binds to a distinct site on tubulin, different from taxanes and vinca alkaloids, which helps overcome drug resistance. Its reduced neurotoxicity makes it a promising candidate for cancer therapy. It has undergone Phase I clinical trials for the treatment of advanced solid tumors. The compound is also known as ZIO-301 and D-24851.
