Product Description

MK-8353 (also known as SCH900353; SCH-900353) is a novel, potent, selective and orally bioavailable ERK inhibitor with anticancer activity. It inhibited ERK1/2 with IC50 values of 23.0 nM and 8.8 nM, respectively, in an IMAP kinase assay, and an IC50 of 0.5 nM for nonactivated ERK2 in a MEK1-ERK2-coupled assay. In numerous preclinical cancer models, MK-8353 and SCH772984 showed comparable potency. Twenty-six patients were enrolled in the MK-8353-001 study and forty-eight patients were enrolled in the P07652 study. Diarrhoea (44%), fatigue (40%), nausea (32%), and rash (28%) were some of the negative effects. In the dose cohorts of 400 mg and 800 mg, dose-limiting toxicity was noted. Biological activity in preclinical data was found to be correlated with sufficient exposure to MK-8353. In the MK-8353-001 study, three out of fifteen patients with BRAFV600-mutant melanomas who were evaluable for treatment response showed partial response.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
ERK2 (IC50 = 8.8 nM); ERK1 (IC50 = 23 nM)
ln Vitro
MK-8353 is a potent and selective inhibitor of both active and dormant ERK1 and ERK2 kinases (IC50 = 20 and 7 nM, respectively). MK-8353 inhibits CYP 3A4 (pre-incubation) in vitro and exhibits inhibition of CYP 3A4 and 2C8 (IC50 = 1.7 & 3.5 μM), which can cause drug-drug interactions when co-administered with drugs that are primarily metabolized by CYP 2C8 or 3A4. It does not inhibit human CYPs 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, or 2D6. At 0.6 μM, MK-8353 inhibits hERG current by 16%. In A2058, HT-29, and Colo-205 cells, the IC50 values for inhibiting cell prolifertion are 371, 51, and 23 nM, respectively. MK-8353 also stops MEK from phosphorylating ERK, in addition to inhibiting ERK's kinase activity[1]. MK-8353 exhibits kinase selectivity over a 227-human kinase panel; only 3 kinases (CLK2, FLT4, and Aurora B) are inhibited >50% at the 1.0 μM concentration.No other kinase in the panel is inhibited by more than 35% at the 0.1 μM concentration.
ln Vivo
In male CD1 mice, Sprague Dawley (SD) rats, guinea pigs, beagle dogs, and cynomologus monkeys, the in vivo pharmacokinetics and metabolism of MK-8353 are examined. A half-life range of 1.3-2.8 hours and a mean residence time range of 1.5-4.0 hours are displayed by MK-8353 in all species, with the exception of monkeys, following IV administration. Dogs, mice, and rats all have a respectable oral bioavailability of between 23 and 80 percent, but monkeys have a low oral bioavailability of only 2%. Given the high (135 nm/sec) intestinal permeability and absorption seen in Caco-2 cells, it is likely that these parameters are also high in human beings. Rats have a steady-state volume of distribution that is 0.1 L/kg, whereas it ranges from 0.9 to 3.3 L/kg in mice, dogs, and monkeys. In numerous BRAF-mutant models, MK-8353 exhibits anti-tumor efficacy[1].
Cell Assay
A2058 cells (1 × 106 cells per 10-cm dish) were given progressively higher doses of MK-8353 (nM) for 24 hours. Immunoblot analysis was conducted on whole cell lysates.
Animal Protocol
Female athymic nude mice (inoculated with Colo-205 cancer cells) or SCID mice (inoculated with SK-MEL-28 melanoma cells)
30, 45 and 60 mg/kg

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.01 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

5 mM 0.2891 mL 1.4454 mL 2.8908 mL
10 mM 0.1445 mL 0.7227 mL 1.4454 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
