Product Description
DCC-3116 is an orally active ULK1/2 inhibitor. DCC-3116 can promote autophagy in lung cancer cells by inhibiting KRASG12C signaling, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of lung cancer cells and exerting anti-cancer effects.
DCC‑3116 (also known as Inlexisertib) is an orally active, selective, and potent inhibitor of ULK1 and ULK2 (Unc‑51‑like autophagy‑activating kinase 1/2). It blocks both basal and sotorasib‑induced autophagy in KRAS G12C‑driven cell lines and exhibits anti‑tumor activity. It is being developed for the treatment of KRAS‑mutant cancers, including lung cancer.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
ULK1 ULK2 KRas G12C
ULK1 and ULK2 (serine/threonine kinases that initiate autophagy). DCC‑3116 is a selective inhibitor of ULK1 and ULK2, blocking the initiation step of autophagy.
ln Vitro
DCC-3116 (100 nM, 72 h) inhibited the proliferation of NCI-H2122 and Calu-1 cells and reduced the expression of pS318-ATG13 when used alone, and had a synergistic effect when used in combination with Sotorasib (HY-114277) [1].
In cell‑free enzymatic assays, DCC‑3116 inhibits ULK1 and ULK2 activity. It is a potent and selective ULK1/2 inhibitor. In cellular assays, DCC‑3116 (0.1‑10 uM) inhibits both basal and sotorasib‑induced autophagy in KRAS G12C‑driven lung cancer cell lines, leading to reduced cell proliferation. Inhibition of autophagy may enhance the efficacy of KRAS G12C inhibitors such as sotorasib.
ln Vivo
DCC-3116 (3 or 30 mg/kg per day for 56 days, po and pi) alone or in combination with sotorasib (HY-114277) can inhibit tumor growth in a mouse model of NSCLC lung cancer [1].
In vivo, DCC‑3116 demonstrates anti‑tumor activity in KRAS‑mutant lung cancer xenograft models. As an orally active ULK1/2 inhibitor, it can be administered to mice bearing KRAS G12C‑driven tumors. When combined with a KRAS G12C inhibitor (e.g., sotorasib), DCC-3116 enhances the anti‑tumor efficacy by blocking the protective autophagy response.
Enzyme Assay
A general cell‑free protocol for ULK1 inhibition: A radiometric or time‑resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR‑FRET) kinase assay is used. Recombinant active ULK1 (10 nM) is incubated with a peptide substrate (e.g., ATG13 peptide) and ATP in kinase buffer with varying concentrations of DCC‑3116 (0.1‑1000 nM). The reaction is incubated at 30degC for 30‑60 minutes. The phosphorylated product is detected, and the IC50 is calculated. A similar assay is performed for ULK2.
Cell Assay
A general cellular protocol for DCC‑3116: KRAS G12C‑mutant lung cancer cells (e.g., NCI‑H358, MIA PaCa‑2) are seeded in 6‑well plates. Cells are treated with DCC‑3116 at concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5, 10 uM for 24‑48 hours. Autophagy is assessed by measuring the LC3B‑II/LC3B‑I ratio and p62 degradation by Western blot. Autophagic flux is measured in the presence or absence of lysosomal inhibitors (e.g., chloroquine). For combination studies, cells are treated with DCC‑3116 (1 uM) and sotorasib (0.1‑1 uM), and cell viability is assessed by CellTiter‑Glo assay. Apoptosis is assessed by Annexin V/PI staining and cleaved PARP Western blot.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models:mouse models of NSCLC lung cancer (adult mice were initiated between 6-8 weeks of age) [1]
Doses: 3 or 30 mg/kg/day for 56 days
Route of Administration: p.o. and p.i
Experimental Results: Inhibited mice tumor growth and improved mice survival rate, while significantly reducing mice body weight (>20%).
A general animal protocol for DCC‑3116: Female BALB/c nude mice are subcutaneously implanted with KRAS G12C‑mutant lung cancer cells (e.g., NCI‑H358). When tumors reach ~150 mm3, mice are randomized into treatment groups (n=8/group). DCC‑3116 is formulated in a suitable vehicle (e.g., 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween‑80, 45% saline) and administered via oral gavage at doses of 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg once daily for 21 days. For combination studies, DCC‑3116 is administered with sotorasib (10 mg/kg daily). Tumor volume is measured twice weekly. At the end of the study, tumors are harvested for Western blot (LC3B, p62, cleaved PARP), IHC (Ki‑67, LC3B), and TUNEL staining.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
General PK protocol for DCC‑3116: Male Sprague‑Dawley rats are administered DCC‑3116 via oral gavage (PO, 10 mg/kg) and intravenous (IV, 2 mg/kg). Blood samples are collected at 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hours. Plasma concentrations are quantified by LC‑MS/MS. PK parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC, t1/2, clearance, Vd, and oral bioavailability) are calculated.

Additional Infomation
Inlexisertib is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of serine/threonine protein kinases ULK1 and ULK2 with potential antitumor activity. After oral administration, inlexisertib targets and binds to ULK1/2. This inhibits autophagy in cancer cells, a mechanism essential for the survival of RAS-mutant cancer cells, ultimately leading to tumor cell death. ULK1/2 mediates autophagy, and its expression is typically upregulated in various cancers, particularly RAS-mutant cancers. Autophagy plays a crucial role in tumor cell proliferation and survival and mediates tumor cell drug resistance.
DCC‑3116 (Inlexisertib) is an ATP‑competitive inhibitor of ULK1/2. The molecular formula is C26H36F3N7O2, and the molecular weight is 535.61 g/mol. The compound is soluble in DMSO at 100 mg/mL (186.7 mM). It has been investigated in clinical trials as a single agent and in combination with sotorasib (Lumakras) for the treatment of KRAS G12C‑mutant solid tumors, including non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer. DCC‑3116 was discovered by Deciphera Pharmaceuticals.
