Product Description
NSC-12 (also known as NSC12; NSC 172285) is an orally available pan-FGF trap able to inhibit FGF2/FGFR interaction and endowed with promising antitumor activity. NSC-12 is an extracellular FGF trap with significant implications in cancer therapy. The extracellular FGF trap NSC-12 has important ramifications for cancer treatment. While NSC12 did not have any inhibitory effect on FGF-independent tumor cells expressing constitutively active FGFR1, it did inhibit the proliferation of several FGF-dependent tumor cell lines. NSC12 has been demonstrated to suppress FGFR phosphorylation, angiogenesis, and the growth of primary and metastatic tumors in FGF-dependent human and mouse cancer cells in vivo. Crucially, there was no toxic effect across the board.
NSC-12 (also known as NSC12 or NSC 172285) is an orally available, small-molecule extracellular pan-FGF trap that binds and sequesters multiple fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), preventing their interaction with FGF receptors (FGFRs). NSC12 was characterized as a multi-FGF trap able to inhibit the formation of the bioactive HSPG/FGF/FGFR ternary complex. It was identified as the first orally available small molecule FGF trap able to inhibit the growth and progression of several FGF-dependent tumor models. The compound functions by interacting with every member of the canonical FGF subfamily, sequestering them in the extracellular space and preventing ligand-dependent activation of the FGF/FGFR system. This mechanism represents a novel approach to targeting FGF-dependent tumors, distinct from intracellular FGFR inhibitors. NSC12 has been shown to inhibit the growth and progression of several FGF-dependent tumor models, including multiple myeloma.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
FGF3 (Kd = 15.9 μM); FGF8b (Kd = 18.9 μM); FGF22 (Kd = 26.8 μM); FGF20 (Kd = 29.4 μM); FGF2/FGFR (IC50 = 30 μM)
FGF2/FGFR interaction (IC50 ≈ 30 µM); FGF3 (Kd = 15.9 µM); FGF8b (Kd = 18.9 µM); FGF22 (Kd = 26.8 µM); FGF20 (Kd = 29.4 µM)
ln Vitro
NSC12 suppresses angiogenesis, metastases, and tumor growth that is FGF-dependent. While FGF2 does not interact with heparin when bound to the immobilized receptor (ID50 ~30 μM), NSC12 prevents this from happening. NSC12 disrupts the FGF2/FGFR1 interaction while leaving the growth factor unaffected in its interactions with heparin or HSPGs. Moreover, immobilized FGF3, FGF4, FGF6, FGF8, FGF16, FGF18, FGF20, and FGF22 are bound by NSC12, with Kd values varying from approximately ~16 and ~120 μM. Through interactions with every member of the canonical FGF subfamilies, NSC12 may function as a multi-FGF trap. NSC12 inhibits Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that express Klotho from activating FGFR1 through FGF23. All tumor cell lines treated with NSC12 exhibit a reduction in the S phase of the cell cycle; however, LLC cells exhibit an accumulation in the S phase. In CHO cell transfectants, NSC12 inhibits the phosphorylation of FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and FGFR4. With no inhibitory effect on FGF-independent cancer cell lines or HCC827 cancer cells that carry a tumor-driving mutation of the EGFR TK domain, NSC12 suppresses the growth of a variety of FGF-dependent murine and human cancer cell lines[1].
NSC12 inhibits FGF2 binding to immobilized receptor with an IC50 of approximately 30 µM without affecting FGF2 interaction with heparin or HSPGs. It binds to immobilized FGF3, FGF4, FGF6, FGF8, FGF16, FGF18, FGF20, and FGF22 with Kd values ranging from 16–120 µM. NSC12 inhibits FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and FGFR4 phosphorylation in CHO cell transfectants. It suppresses proliferation of various FGF-dependent murine and human cancer cell lines without affecting FGF-independent cancer cells or HCC827 cells with EGFR TK domain mutation. The compound's ability to bind multiple FGFs with high affinity makes it a pan-FGF trap that can broadly inhibit FGF/FGFR signaling.
ln Vivo
In FGF-dependent murine and human tumor models, parenteral and oral administration of NSC12 inhibits FGFR activation, tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis. At all doses examined in the animal models, NSC12 significantly reduces tumor weight, tumor cell FGFR1 phosphorylation and proliferation, and tumor CD31+ neovascularization[1].
NSC12 inhibits FGFR activation, tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis in FGF-dependent murine and human tumor models following both parenteral and oral administration. It significantly reduces tumor weight, tumor cell FGFR1 phosphorylation, proliferation, and CD31+ microvessel formation in animal models. Importantly, no systemic toxic effects are observed at all doses examined. The compound's oral availability and efficacy in multiple tumor models support its potential as a therapeutic agent for FGF-dependent cancers.
Enzyme Assay
FGF binding affinity is measured using surface plasmon resonance or ELISA-based binding assays with immobilized FGF proteins to determine Kd values. FGFR phosphorylation is assessed by Western blot using phospho-specific antibodies against FGFR1-4. FGF2/FGFR interaction inhibition is measured using competition binding assays with labeled FGF2 and immobilized FGFR1. The compound's ability to inhibit the formation of the bioactive HSPG/FGF/FGFR ternary complex is also assessed.
Cell Assay
In 96 well plates, KATO Ⅲ cells are plated at 104 cells/well in RPMI medium supplemented with 1% FBS. Following a 24-hour period, cells are exposed to varying concentrations of FGFs (30 ng/ml) with or without an ideal dosage of NSC12 (1.0 or 3.0 μM) or NSC21. The MTT assay is carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions after 72 hours. With a plate reader set to a reference wavelength of 630 nm and a test wavelength of 595 nm, the optical density (OD) is calculated.
Cell proliferation is assessed in various FGF-dependent tumor cell lines (murine and human) using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays after treatment with NSC12. Effects on cell cycle distribution are analyzed by flow cytometry. FGFR phosphorylation is measured in CHO cell transfectants expressing different FGFRs. FGF23-mediated FGFR1 activation is assessed in Klotho-expressing CHO cells. The compound's selectivity for FGF-dependent cancer cells over FGF-independent cells is confirmed in these assays.
Animal Protocol
C57BL/6 mice
from 2.5 to 10 mg/kg
i.p.
In FGF-dependent murine and human tumor models, NSC12 is administered via injection or oral routes. Tumor growth, angiogenesis (CD31 staining), and metastasis are assessed. FGFR phosphorylation is measured in tumor tissues. In animal models, NSC12 treatment shows significant reductions in tumor weight, FGFR1 phosphorylation, proliferation markers, and CD31+ microvessel formation. No systemic toxic effects are observed at all doses examined.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for NSC-12 are limited. The compound is orally available and has been shown to be effective following both oral and parenteral administration in vivo. It is soluble in DMSO (96 mg/mL) and ethanol (63 mg/mL) for formulation. Detailed PK parameters such as half-life, bioavailability, and tissue distribution have not been extensively reported. The compound's oral bioavailability supports its potential for therapeutic development.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
NSC12 shows no systemic toxic effects at all doses examined in animal models. Comprehensive toxicology data are limited as the compound remains in preclinical development. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed during handling. The compound has not been evaluated in formal toxicology studies for human use. The compound has not entered clinical trials.
