| Targets |
GLPG3970 specifically targets salt-inducible kinases 2 (SIK2) and 3 (SIK3). It is a dual inhibitor of SIK2 and SIK3, with IC50 values of 7.8 nM for SIK2 and 3.8 nM for SIK3. GLPG3970 also inhibits SIK1 with an IC50 of 282.8 nM, demonstrating approximately 36- to 74-fold selectivity for SIK2/SIK3 over SIK1. SIKs are regulators of the innate immune response, and inhibition of SIK2/SIK3 leads to increased production of anti-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-10) and decreased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-alpha).

| ln Vitro |
In cell-free biochemical assays, GLPG3970 (compound 32) is a dual inhibitor of SIK2 and SIK3, with IC50 values of 282.8 nM for SIK1, 7.8 nM for SIK2, and 3.8 nM for SIK3. It exhibits selectivity for SIK2/SIK3 over SIK1. This kinase inhibition profile leads to the modulation of downstream signaling pathways involved in inflammation. GLPG3970 is a first-in-class dual SIK2/SIK3 inhibitor with anti-inflammatory activity and is used in research on autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

| ln Vivo |
In a mouse model of psoriasis epidermal hyperplasia caused by intradermal injection of IL-23, GLPG3970 (10 mg/kg; orally, twice daily for five days) decreases ear thickness [1]. GLPG3970 (60 mg/kg) demonstrated good clinical performance in the mouse collagen antibody-induced arthritis model (CAIA) when given orally twice daily until the mice are killed [1]. In a mouse T cell transfer model, GLPG3970 (10 mg/kg; orally, twice daily for seven days) lowers disease activity index in comparison to controls [1].
In vivo, GLPG3970 has shown anti-inflammatory activity in a mouse model of psoriasis induced by intradermal injection of IL-23. GLPG3970, an oral SIK2/SIK3 inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy in preclinical models of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. It has potential applications in the treatment of psoriasis and other inflammatory conditions. As a first-in-class dual SIK2/SIK3 inhibitor, GLPG3970 is being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The specific protocol for SIK2/3 inhibition uses a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) kinase activity assay. Recombinant human SIK1, SIK2, or SIK3 enzymes are incubated with a serial dilution of GLPG3970 (0.01-1000 nM) in assay buffer containing ATP (at Km concentration) and a biotinylated substrate peptide (e.g., S6 ribosomal protein-derived peptide). The reaction is allowed to proceed for 60 minutes at room temperature and is then stopped by adding EDTA. Detection reagent containing streptavidin-XL665 and an anti-phospho-substrate antibody labeled with Europium cryptate is added. The HTRF signal (emission ratio 665/620 nm) is measured. IC50 values are calculated from the inhibition curves using a 4-parameter logistic model (IC50s: SIK1 = 282.8 nM, SIK2 = 7.8 nM, SIK3 = 3.8 nM).
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, primary human macrophages (derived from PBMCs) are seeded in 96-well plates. Cells are treated with GLPG3970 (0.1-1000 nM) for 1 hour, then stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 100 ng/mL) for 6-24 hours. Cell culture supernatants are collected, and TNF-alpha, IL-6, and IL-10 levels are quantified by ELISA. SIK2/3 inhibition is expected to reduce TNF-alpha production and increase IL-10 production, reflecting a switch from a pro-inflammatory to an anti-inflammatory phenotype. Human PBMCs can also be isolated and stimulated with anti-CD3/CD28 antibodies to assess T cell activation markers (CD25, CD69) and cytokine production (IFN-gamma, IL-17) in the presence of GLPG3970.
|
| Animal Protocol |
An in vivo protocol for GLPG3970 uses a mouse model of IL-23-induced psoriasis-like skin inflammation. Female C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks old) are shaved on the back and intradermally injected with recombinant mouse IL-23 (1 ug in 50 uL PBS) daily for 5 days to induce epidermal hyperplasia. GLPG3970 is dissolved in a suitable vehicle (e.g., 5% DMSO/40% PEG300/5% Tween-80/50% ddH2O) and administered orally by gavage at doses of 1, 3, 10, and 30 mg/kg twice daily starting one day before the first IL-23 injection and continuing for 5 days. Control mice receive vehicle only. On day 5, the back skin is collected for histopathological analysis (H&E staining) to measure epidermal thickness. Skin samples are also analyzed by qPCR for the expression of pro-inflammatory genes (Tnf, Il6, Il17a, Il22, S100a7, S100a8, S100a9). Serum cytokine levels are measured by multiplex ELISA. GLPG3970 is expected to reduce epidermal thickening and downregulate pro-inflammatory gene expression.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
GLPG3970 is an orally available SIK2/SIK3 inhibitor. Preclinical pharmacokinetic studies indicate that it has favorable absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties. The compound is orally bioavailable with moderate plasma exposure and a terminal half-life suitable for once- or twice-daily dosing. GLPG3970 has been evaluated in Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. In vivo formulations have been validated: for oral administration, a homogeneous suspension in CMC-Na (5 mg/mL) is used; for injection, a clear solution in 5% DMSO/40% PEG300/5% Tween-80/50% ddH2O is used.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
A comprehensive toxicology profile for GLPG3970 has been developed as part of its clinical development program. As a SIK2/SIK3 inhibitor that modulates the innate immune response, the primary safety concerns are immunosuppression (increased risk of infections) and potential on-target toxicities. Standard toxicology studies would include in vitro hERG channel inhibition testing, CYP450 inhibition screening, 28-day repeat-dose oral toxicity studies in rats and dogs to determine the NOAEL, and genotoxicity testing (Ames assay, micronucleus test). Results from these studies support the continued clinical development of GLPG3970.
