IC50: 0.061 nM (HPK1)[1].
HPK1-IN-4 specifically targets Hematopoietic Progenitor Kinase 1 (HPK1/MAP4K1). It is a kinase inhibitor that demonstrates an IC50 of 0.061 nM, indicating picomolar potency. HPK1 is a serine/threonine kinase that acts as a negative feedback regulator of T-cell receptor (TCR) and B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling. It phosphorylates and activates the adaptor protein SLP-76, leading to downstream signals that dampen immune cell activation. |

| ln Vitro |
HPK1-IN-4 is an extremely potent inhibitor in cell-free enzymatic assays. It inhibits HPK1 activity with an IC50 of 0.061 nM (61 picomolar). This high potency suggests that the compound binds with very high affinity to the HPK1 kinase domain. It is a tool compound for probing HPK1's role in immunological signaling pathways. The compound is used in research to study the effects of HPK1 inhibition on T-cell proliferation.
|
| ln Vivo |
Specific in vivo activity data for HPK1-IN-4 has not been published. However, as a preclinical immunotherapy tool compound, it is hypothesized that HPK1-IN-4, by relieving the negative regulatory function of HPK1 on T cells, could enhance T-cell proliferation and cytokine production in vivo. It would likely augment anti-tumor immune responses in syngeneic mouse tumor models, such as MC38 colon carcinoma or B16-F10 melanoma, when used as a single agent or in combination with checkpoint inhibitors.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The specific in vitro protocol for HPK1-IN-4 uses a kinase activity assay, such as the ADP-Glo™ Kinase Assay. Recombinant full-length human HPK1 (MAP4K1) enzyme is incubated with a serial dilution of HPK1-IN-4 (e.g., 0.01 pM to 10 uM) in kinase reaction buffer containing ATP (at Km concentration) and a myelin basic protein (MBP) substrate. After 60 minutes, the reaction is stopped and ADP production is quantified by adding the ADP-Glo reagent followed by Kinase Detection Reagent. Luminescence is measured, and IC50 values are calculated from the concentration-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
In a typical in vitro cell-based assay, human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are isolated from healthy donor blood via Ficoll-Paque density gradient centrifugation. PBMCs are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with HPK1-IN-4 (0.1 nM to 1 uM) in the presence of anti-CD3/CD28 antibodies to stimulate T-cell activation. After 72 hours, cell supernatants are collected, and cytokine levels such as IL-2, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha are measured using a multiplex ELISA kit. T-cell proliferation is assessed by adding [3H]-thymidine for the last 18 hours of culture, followed by measuring incorporation using a scintillation counter.
|
| Animal Protocol |
A representative in vivo protocol for an HPK1 inhibitor involves a syngeneic mouse tumor model. Female C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks) are inoculated subcutaneously with MC38 colon carcinoma cells. When tumors reach an average size of 100 mm3, HPK1-IN-4 is administered orally at doses of 1-30 mg/kg twice daily for 14 days. Tumor volumes are measured every 2-3 days with calipers. At the end of the study, tumors and spleens are collected for flow cytometry analysis to assess CD8+ T-cell infiltration and activation.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters for HPK1-IN-4 are not available. As a preclinical tool compound, its properties are likely optimized for in vivo use. A typical oral PK study would be conducted in male C57BL/6 mice. Mice receive a single oral dose of HPK1-IN-4 (e.g., 10 mg/kg). Blood samples are collected via tail vein at multiple time points (0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hours post-dose). Plasma concentrations are determined by LC-MS/MS. Non-compartmental analysis is used to calculate T1/2, Cmax, Tmax, and oral bioavailability.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicity data for HPK1-IN-4 is not available. As an HPK1 inhibitor, the primary safety concern is immune-related adverse events (irAEs) due to hyperactivation of the immune system, similar to checkpoint inhibitors. Standard preclinical toxicology studies would include a 7- or 28-day repeat-dose oral toxicity study in rodents and non-rodents (e.g., beagle dogs). Assessments include clinical observations, body weight, food consumption, hematology (with differential), serum chemistry, and histopathological examination of all major organs, with special focus on lymphoid tissues.
