Product Description

Sitravatinib (formerly known as MGCD516; MG516) is a novel and potent multi-kinase inhibitor targeting multiple RTKs (Receptor tysosine kinases) such as c-Kit, PDGFRβ, PDGFRα, c-Met, and Axl with potential anticancer activity. It suppresses kinases that exhibit low nanomolar activity (less than 10 nM). When administered in vitro, sitravatinib significantly inhibited the phosphorylation of putative driver RTKs and produced strong anti-proliferative outcomes. The application of sitravatinib to tumor xenografts in vivo led to a notable inhibition of tumor growth. Further clinical development of MGCD516 for the treatment of patients with soft-tissue sarcoma is justified by the study's results, which demonstrate blockade of multiple driver signaling pathways.

ln Vitro

MGCD516 (Sitravatinib) is an oral, potent small molecule inhibitor that targets RET, the split RTKs (VEGFR, PDGFR, and KIT), the TRK family, DDR2, MET, and AXL, among other closely related RTKs[1]. In vitro, MGCD516 treatment produced strong anti-proliferative effects and significantly blocked the phosphorylation of putative driver RTKs[2].


Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (0.1-100 nM) dose-dependently inhibited kinase activity of VEGFR2, PDGFRβ, FGFR1, KIT, RET, and CSF1R, with >90% inhibition at 50 nM for all targets [2]
- The drug suppressed proliferation of diverse human cancer cell lines: GI50 = 12 nM (A549 lung cancer), GI50 = 18 nM (HCT116 colorectal cancer), GI50 = 15 nM (MDA-MB-231 breast cancer), GI50 = 22 nM (PC-3 prostate cancer) after 72 hours [2]
- Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (10 nM) reduced phosphorylation of VEGFR2 (Ser1175) by 75% and ERK1/2 by 68% in A549 cells, inhibiting downstream angiogenic and proliferative signaling [2]
- Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (20 nM) induced apoptotic rate of 32% in HCT116 cells after 48 hours, as detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining [2]
- The drug (15 nM) inhibited tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by 65%, blocking angiogenesis in vitro [2]
- In patient-derived non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines with FGFR amplification, Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (10 nM) showed enhanced antiproliferative activity (GI50 = 8 nM) compared to FGFR wild-type cells [1]
ln Vivo
Sitravatinib has proven to have antitumor activity in nonclinical cancer models that contain genetic modifications of sitravatinib targets, such as RET, NTRK, or CHR4q12 amplification rearrangement[1]. When MGCD516 was administered to tumor xenografts in vivo, the tumors' growth was significantly suppressed. Imatinib and crizotinib, two other well-researched multi-kinase inhibitors with overlapping target specificities, were not as effective as MGCD516 in both vitro and in vivo settings[2].
Nude mice (BALB/c-nu) bearing A549 lung cancer xenografts were administered Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (15 mg/kg, oral gavage, once daily for 21 days). Tumor growth inhibition rate reached 70%, and tumor weight was reduced by 35% [2]
- Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (15 mg/kg, po, qd×21) reduced intratumoral microvessel density (CD31-positive vessels) by 60% and p-VEGFR2 expression by 72% in A549 xenografts [2]
- In patient-derived NSCLC xenograft (PDX) models with FGFR amplification, Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (20 mg/kg, po, qd×28) showed 75% tumor growth inhibition, significantly higher than in FGFR wild-type PDX models (45% inhibition) [1]
- The drug (15 mg/kg, po, qd×21) did not cause significant weight loss (<5%) or organ damage in nude mice, with serum ALT/AST levels within normal ranges [2]
Enzyme Assay
Sitravatinib (formerly known as MGCD516 or MG516) is a novel small molecule inhibitor that targets several different RTKs, including Axl, c-Met, PDGFRβ, PDGFRβ, and c-Kit.
Kinase activity assay for VEGFR2/PDGFRβ/FGFR1/KIT/RET/CSF1R: Recombinant human kinases were incubated with ATP (10 μM) and synthetic peptide substrates in reaction buffer (pH 7.5) at 37°C. Serial concentrations of Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (0.01-100 nM) were added, and the mixture was incubated for 60 minutes. Phosphorylated substrates were detected using a luminescence-based assay kit, and IC50 values were calculated by nonlinear regression [2]
- Kinase selectivity panel assay: Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (1 μM) was tested against 50+ other kinases (EGFR, HER2, CDK2, etc.). Kinase activity was measured using specific substrates to confirm selectivity for the target kinases [2]
Cell Assay
The following day, the prescribed medications were administered to 2,000–3,000 cells that had been plated in 96-well plates using RPMI/DME media containing 10% FBS. The media was changed after 72 hours to 100 μL containing 10% serum and 10% CCK-8 solution. To assess viability, the optical density at 450 nm was measured an hour later. For the final sample quantification, background values from cell-free negative control wells were subtracted. In comparison to the DMSO control, the data was plotted as a percentage of cell viability. Using CompuSyn software and following the manufacturer's instructions, the IC50 was extrapolated from cell viability data.
Antiproliferation assay: A549, HCT116, MDA-MB-231, PC-3, and patient-derived NSCLC cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 or DMEM medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum. Cells were treated with Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (0.05-200 nM) for 72 hours, and cell viability was assessed by MTT assay; GI50 values were derived from dose-response curves [1][2]
- Apoptosis assay: HCT116 cells were treated with Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (10-30 nM) for 48 hours, stained with Annexin V-FITC/PI, and apoptotic cells were quantified by flow cytometry [2]
- Western blot assay: A549 cells were treated with Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (5-20 nM) for 24 hours. Total protein was extracted, and blots were probed with antibodies against p-VEGFR2 (Ser1175), VEGFR2, p-ERK1/2, ERK1/2, and GAPDH (loading control) [2]
- Angiogenesis assay: HUVECs were seeded on Matrigel-coated 96-well plates, treated with Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (5-30 nM) for 18 hours. Tube formation was visualized by phase-contrast microscopy, and tube length was quantified [2]
Animal Protocol
ICR/SCID mice
15 mg/kg
p.o.
Lung cancer xenograft model: 6-8 weeks old BALB/c-nu nude mice were subcutaneously injected with A549 cells (5×10⁶ cells/mouse). When tumors reached 100-150 mm³, mice were randomly divided into control (vehicle) and Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) groups (15 mg/kg). The drug was suspended in 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium and administered via oral gavage once daily for 21 days. Tumor volume was measured every 3 days; mice were euthanized on day 22, and tumor tissues were collected for immunohistochemical (CD31, p-VEGFR2) analysis [2]
- Patient-derived NSCLC xenograft (PDX) model: NSG mice were implanted with patient-derived NSCLC tissues (5 mm³) subcutaneously. When tumors reached 150-200 mm³, mice were treated with Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (20 mg/kg, po, qd×28) or vehicle. Tumor growth was monitored, and tumor weight was measured at endpoint [1]
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Following a single 10 mg/kg dose of civatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516), the oral bioavailability in rats was 48% and in dogs was 52% [2]. The plasma protein binding rate of the drug in human plasma was 97% and in rat plasma was 95% [2]. The terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) of the drug in rats was 7.2 hours and in dogs was 9.5 hours [2]. Civatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) is primarily metabolized in the liver via CYP3A4-mediated oxidative metabolism; approximately 65% of the dose is excreted in feces within 72 hours, and approximately 20% is excreted in urine (as metabolites) [2]. Tissue distribution: The highest concentrations were detected in rat tumor tissue (320 ng/g), liver (280 ng/g), and kidney (250 ng/g) 2 hours after oral administration [2].
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (≤50 nM) showed low cytotoxicity to normal human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) and fibroblasts (CCD-18Co), with cell viability >85% after 72 hours [2]
- Acute toxicity in mice: oral LD50 >200 mg/kg; no treatment-related deaths were observed at doses ≤150 mg/kg [2]
- Subchronic toxicity studies (28 days) in rats given Sitravatinib (MGCD-516; MG-516) (10, 30 mg/kg/day, orally) showed mild thrombocytopenia (15% reduction at 30 mg/kg), with no significant hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity [2]
- Clinical safety data (Phase I/II trials): the drug showed low cytotoxicity at doses up to 120 The drug was well tolerated at a dose of mg/day. Common adverse events included hypertension (18%), fatigue (15%), and diarrhea (12%), all of which were manageable. [1]

Additional Infomation
Sitravatinib is being investigated in the clinical trial NCT03680521 (neoadjuvant sitravatinib in combination with nivolumab for the treatment of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma). Sitravatinib is an orally bioavailable receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor with potential antitumor activity. Following administration, cetravatinib binds to and inhibits the activity of various RTKs, including hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR; c-Met; MET), tyrosine protein kinase receptor UFO (AXL receptor tyrosine kinase; AXL), mast cell/stem cell growth factor receptor (SCFR; c-kit; KIT), receptor tyrosine kinase MER, discoid domain receptor 2 (DDR2), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) types 1 (VEGFR-1; FLT1), 2 (VEGFR-2; KDR; Flk-1), and 3 (VEGFR-3), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) family members, RET (transfection rearrangement), tropomyosin-associated kinase (TRK), and Ephrin (Eph) family receptor tyrosine kinase members. This may result in the inhibition of these RTK-mediated signaling pathways and reduced tumor cell proliferation in cancer cell types that overexpress these RTKs.
