Product Description
P-18 (P18) is a novel and potent inhibitor of the Programmed Cell Death-1/Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) Interaction with IC50 of 9 nM in homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) binding assays. P18 promoted HepG2 cell death dose dependently in a HepG2/PD-L1 and Jurkat/PD-1 coculture cell model. Further, P18 demonstrated significantly higher water


P-18 (also known as P18) is a novel, potent, small-molecule inhibitor of the Programmed Cell Death-1/Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) interaction. It is a resorcinol diphenyl ether-based compound designed to block this immune checkpoint, thereby reactivating T-cell-mediated antitumor immunity. P-18 has shown significant antitumor activity in preclinical models and represents a promising class of orally bioavailable immunotherapeutic agents.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
P-18 targets the PD-1/PD-L1 protein-protein interaction. Specifically, molecular modeling studies indicate that P-18 binds well to the hydrophobic binding interface of the PD-L1 protein. By occupying this site, it prevents PD-L1 from engaging with the PD-1 receptor on T cells, thereby disrupting the inhibitory signal that tumors use to evade immune detection.
ln Vitro

In vitro, P-18 is a highly potent inhibitor of the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction, with an IC₅0 of 9 nM as determined by homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) binding assays. In a HepG2/PD-L1 and Jurkat/PD-1 co-culture cell model, P-18 promoted HepG2 cell death in a dose-dependent manner. It also demonstrates significant antiproliferative activity against various cancer cell lines, including MCF-7, H1299, HeLa, and HepG2.

In vitro activity (PD-1/PD-L1 HTRF Binding Assay): The ability of compounds in inhibition of PD-1/PD-L1 interaction was investigated using a PD-1/PD-L1 homogenous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) binding assay. The PD-1/PD-L1 binding assay kits (64ICP01PEG&64ICP01-PEH) were purchased from Cisbio. The experiments were performed according to the instruction manual which could be downloaded at https://www.cisbio.com/usa/drug-discovery/human-pd1pd-l1-biochemical-interaction-assay.


Cell Assay: Determination of IFN-γ release. The Tumor/T cell co-culture assay was conducted by ChemPartner. Briefly, Hep3B cells were engineered to stably express OS-8 (anti-CD3 single chain variable fragment) and human PD-L1 (hPD-L1). Fresh PBMCs were isolated from healthy donor by density gradient centrifugation. CD3 T cells were isolated from fresh PBMCs by EasySep™ Human T Cell Isolation Kit (negative selection, STEMCELL Technologies). Hep3B-OS8-hPDL1 cells were harvested and treated with 10 μg/mL mitomycin C at 37 oC for 1.5h, and washed 4 times with PBS. Hep3B-OS8-hPDL1 and T cells (2.5x104 in 50μL and 5x104 in 100 μL complete media, respectively) were added to the 96-well plates, followed by the addition of 4x final concentration of test compound in 50 μL complete media according to the plate map, and co-culture at 37 oC, 5% CO2 incubator for 72 h. The supernatants (150 μL) were harvested after 72 h of co-culture to determine IFN-γ levels by ELISA.

ln Vivo

In vivo, P-18 was highly effective in suppressing tumor growth in an immune checkpoint humanized mouse model. In a B16-F10 mouse model, P-18 achieved a tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rate of 44.3%. Notably, these antitumor effects were achieved without apparent toxicity. Furthermore, P-18 did not cause cardiotoxicity or myelosuppression in BALB/c mice.

Enzyme Assay
The primary in vitro assay for P-18 is the PD-1/PD-L1 homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) binding assay. This assay uses commercial kits to measure the ability of compounds to inhibit the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction. The assay is performed according to the manufacturer's instructions, and the compound's potency (IC₅0) is determined from the resulting fluorescence signal.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular activity is assessed using a tumor/T-cell co-culture assay. In this model, Hep3B cells engineered to express human PD-L1 and an anti-CD3 antibody are co-cultured with primary human CD3+ T cells. Test compounds, including P-18, are added to the co-culture for 72 hours. The level of T-cell activation is then quantified by measuring the concentration of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) released into the supernatant using an ELISA.
Animal Protocol

The in vivo efficacy of P-18 is evaluated in an immune checkpoint humanized mouse model. In a typical protocol, mice are implanted with tumor cells and then treated with P-18 via oral administration (p.o.) at doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg. Tumor growth is monitored over time, and the compound's antitumor efficacy is determined by comparing tumor volumes in treated versus control groups.

Mouse
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of P-18 have been evaluated in male Sprague-Dawley rats. After a single intravenous dose (1 mg/kg), the half-life (t1/2) was 18.1 +/- 8.3 hours, with a clearance rate of 1.3 +/- 0.4 L/h/kg. Following oral administration (10 mg/kg), the half-life was 20.9 +/- 9.1 hours, and the oral bioavailability (F) was 12%. P-18 also exhibits significantly improved water solubility (17.61 mg/mL) compared to earlier analogues.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
In preclinical models, P-18 has shown no apparent toxicity at therapeutic doses. It did not cause cardiotoxicity or myelosuppression in BALB/c mice, indicating a favorable safety profile. These findings suggest that P-18 has a low risk of common dose-limiting toxicities associated with some anticancer agents.

Additional Infomation
P-18 is a novel, small-molecule PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor with potent in vitro and in vivo activity. As a small molecule, it offers potential advantages over monoclonal antibody-based immunotherapies, including oral bioavailability and a longer half-life. P-18 is a resorcinol diphenyl ether-based compound that binds to PD-L1. It is currently in the preclinical research phase and is not yet approved for clinical use.
