PTI-428 is a novel, potent CFTR amplifier being developed byProteostasis Therapeutics, Inc. for the treatment of CF in patients who are homozygous for the F508del mutation in the CFTR gene as an add-on therapy to approved CFTR modulators or as part of PTI’s proprietary triple combination regimen that includes PTI-808, a potentiator, and PTI-801, a corrector. PTI-428 works early during CFTR biogenesis to increase levels of newly synthesized CFTR protein, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits in combination with CFTR correctors and potentiators. TheU.S. Food and Drug Administration(FDA) has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation for PTI-428, the Company’s cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) amplifier.
| Targets |
PTI-428 targets the ribosomal machinery to promote nonsense mutation readthrough of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene/protein [2]
PTI-428 acts on CFTR proteins carrying nonsense mutations (e.g., G542X, W1282X) by restoring full-length CFTR protein expression and function [2] |

| ln Vitro |
Nesolicaftor (PTI-428) (30 µM, 24 h) can enhance CFTR function. For example, it can significantly alter inh-172 in 16HBE14o cells that express G542X-CFTR and enhance F508del-CFTR function in CFBE41o cells. Dose dependence is observed in F508del-CFTR [2].
1. In human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells expressing CFTR-G542X nonsense mutation, PTI-428 (5 μM) alone induces a modest increase in CFTR channel function (measured by Ussing chamber assay), with a change in short-circuit current (ΔIsc) of ~5 μA/cm²; combination with the CFTR corrector VX-809 (3 μM) and potentiator VX-770 (1 μM) significantly enhances CFTR function, with ΔIsc reaching ~15 μA/cm² [2] 2. In HBE cells expressing CFTR-W1282X nonsense mutation, PTI-428 (5 μM) alone has minimal effect on CFTR channel function (ΔIsc < 3 μA/cm²), but combination with VX-809 (3 μM) and VX-770 (1 μM) increases ΔIsc to ~10 μA/cm² [2] 3. PTI-428 (1–10 μM) dose-dependently increases the expression of full-length CFTR protein in CFTR-G542X transfected HEK293 cells (detected by Western blot), with maximal expression at 5 μM; no significant increase in CFTR mRNA levels is observed, confirming its action via translational readthrough rather than transcriptional upregulation [2] 4. Co-treatment of PTI-428 (5 μM) with the aminoglycoside gentamicin (100 μM) in CFTR-G542X HBE cells shows additive effects on CFTR readthrough and channel function, with ΔIsc increasing to ~20 μA/cm² [2] |
| Cell Assay |
1. CFTR channel function assay in HBE cells (Ussing chamber): Primary human bronchial epithelial cells expressing CFTR-G542X or W1282X nonsense mutations were cultured on permeable supports until confluent and differentiated into a polarized monolayer. Cells were pre-treated with PTI-428 (5 μM) alone or in combination with VX-809 (3 μM) and VX-770 (1 μM) for 48 hours. The short-circuit current (Isc) was measured using an Ussing chamber system, with sequential addition of forskolin (10 μM) and IBMX (100 μM) to activate CFTR, and CFTRinh-172 (10 μM) to inhibit CFTR-specific current; the change in Isc (ΔIsc) was calculated to quantify CFTR channel function [2]
2. CFTR protein expression Western blot assay in HEK293 cells: HEK293 cells were transiently transfected with a plasmid encoding CFTR-G542X. After 24 hours of transfection, cells were treated with different concentrations of PTI-428 (1–10 μM) for 24 hours. Cells were lysed, and protein extracts were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to a membrane, and probed with anti-CFTR and anti-GAPDH (loading control) antibodies. Band intensity was quantified by densitometry to assess full-length CFTR protein expression; RT-qPCR was performed to measure CFTR mRNA levels and rule out transcriptional effects [2] 3. Combination drug treatment assay in HBE cells: CFTR-G542X HBE cells were cultured as polarized monolayers and treated with PTI-428 (5 μM) in combination with gentamicin (100 μM), VX-809 (3 μM), and VX-770 (1 μM) for 48 hours. CFTR channel function was assessed by Ussing chamber assay as described above, and the additive effects of combined drugs on ΔIsc were calculated and compared with single-drug treatment [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
Nesolicaftor (PTI-428) is being investigated in the clinical trial NCT03258424 (a study evaluating the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of PTI-428 in patients with cystic fibrosis receiving KALYDECO® as background therapy).
1. PTI-428 is a small molecule nonsense mutagen for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) caused by nonsense mutations in the CFTR gene [2] 2. PTI-428 exerts its therapeutic effect by promoting ribosomal reading of premature stop codons (PTCs) in CFTR mRNA, thereby restoring the synthesis of full-length functional CFTR protein [2] 3. PTI-428, along with CFTR correctors (e.g., VX-809) and enhancers (e.g., VX-770), as well as aminoglycoside antibiotics (e.g., gentamicin), can be used to restore CFTR function in cystic fibrosis (CF) models carrying nonsense mutations [2] 4. PTI-428 belongs to the new generation of non-aminoglycoside mutagens and, compared with traditional aminoglycosides, has a greater effect on CFTR Nonsense mutations have higher potency and selectivity [2] 5. CFTR nonsense mutations (such as G542X, W1282X) account for about 10% of all CF pathogenic mutations, and PTI-428 is a promising candidate drug for treating this group of CF patients [1][2] |
