TAK-960 DiHCl, the dihydrochloride salt of TAK960, is an orally bioavailable, potent, and selective PLK1 polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.8 nM at 10 μM ATP.
| Targets |
PLK1 (IC50 = 0.8 nM); PLK2 (IC50 = 16.9 nM); PLK3 (IC50 = 50.2 nM); FAK/PTK2 (IC50 = 19.6 nM); MLCK/MYLK (IC50 = 25.6 nM); FES/FPS (IC50 = 58.2 nM);
TAK-960 dihydrochloride treatment results in increased phosphorylation of histone H3 (pHH3), aberrant polo mitosis morphology, and accumulation of G2-M cells. With mean EC50 values ranging from 8.4 to 46.9 nM, TAK-960 dihydrochloride (2-1000 nM; 72 hours) inhibits the proliferation of multiple cancer cell lines, but not nondividing normal cells[1]. TAK-960 dihydrochloride (8 nM) causes G2/M cell cycle arrest without causing appreciable cytotoxicity in HeLa cells[2]. |

With mean EC50 values ranging from 8.4 to 46.9 nM, TAK-960 dihydrochloride (2-1000 nM; 72 hours) inhibits the proliferation of multiple cancer cell lines, but not nondividing normal cells[1].
TAK-960 dihydrochloride (8 nM) causes G2/M cell cycle arrest without causing appreciable cytotoxicity in HeLa cells[2]. TAK-960 inhibits proliferation of multiple human cancer cell lines with mean EC₅₀ values ranging from 8.4 to 46.9 nmol/L, while showing minimal effect on nondividing normal human lung fibroblasts MRC5 (EC₅₀ >1,000 nmol/L).[1] Treatment induces G₂-M phase accumulation and increases phosphorylation of histone H3 (pHH3) in HT-29 colorectal cancer cells.[1] Immunofluorescence reveals aberrant mitotic spindle formation (monopolar spindles) in HT-29 cells after 24-hour treatment with TAK-960.[1] Potency is not affected by TP53 or KRAS mutation status or by overexpression of multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) in cancer cell lines such as HCT-15, COLO320DM, and K562ADR.[1] |
| ln Vivo |
TAK-960 dihydrochloride shows notable efficacy against multiple tumor xenografts (10 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily for 2 weeks)[1].
TAK-960 dihydrochloride (p.o.) in animal models significantly inhibits the growth of HT-29 colorectal cancer xenografts and raises pHH3 in a dose-dependent manner[1]. Oral administration of TAK-960 significantly inhibits tumor growth in multiple xenograft models, including HT-29 colorectal cancer, HCT116, PC-3, BT474, A549, NCI-H1299, NCI-H1975, A2780, and MV4-11 tumors.[1] TAK-960 induces pHH3 in tumors in a dose-dependent manner, indicating PLK1 inhibition and mitotic arrest in vivo.[1] In a disseminated leukemia model (MV4-11luc), TAK-960 treatment (7.5 mg/kg QD×9) significantly prolongs median survival compared to vehicle (39.5 vs. 25 days).[1] TAK-960 retains antitumor activity in MDR1-overexpressing K562ADR xenografts, whereas paclitaxel does not.[1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
The inhibitory activity of TAK-960 against PLK1 was assessed using a TR-FRET assay measuring ATP-dependent phosphorylation of a biotinylated mTOR-derived peptide.[1]
Selectivity profiling across 288 kinases was performed using a HotSpot kinase assay, with IC₅₀ values determined for kinases inhibited >80% at 1,000 nmol/L TAK-960.[1] |
| Cell Assay |
After adding 10% fetal calf serum to the suitable medium, 3,000–30,000 cells are seeded into each well of 96-well plates. The CellTiter-Glo Assay is used to determine the number of viable cells after treating the cells with TAK-960 serial dilutions for 24 hours. A 72-hour analysis is conducted. With GraphPad Prism, EC50 values are calculated and statistical analysis is performed.
Cell cycle analysis was performed by treating HT-29 cells with TAK-960 for 48 hours, fixing with ethanol, staining with propidium iodide, and analyzing DNA content via flow cytometry.[1] Immunocytochemistry was conducted on HT-29 cells treated with TAK-960 for 24 hours, fixed, permeabilized, and stained with antibodies against α-tubulin and γ-tubulin, with DAPI for nuclei.[1] Cell proliferation was assessed using a luminescent cell viability assay after 72-hour treatment with TAK-960 in 96-well plates.[1] pHH3 levels were measured by ELISA in cell lysates after 24-hour treatment.[1] |
| Animal Protocol |
nude mice or SCID mice (bearing HCT116, PC-3, BT474, A549, NCI-H1299, NCI-H1975, A2780, and MV4-11 cells)[1]
10 mg/kg P.o.; once daily for 2 weeks For subcutaneous xenograft models, mice were implanted with cancer cells and randomized when tumor volumes reached ~200 mm³. TAK-960 was suspended in 0.5% methyl cellulose and administered orally at doses ranging from 6.25 to 30 mg/kg on various schedules (e.g., QD×21, QD×3/w×3w, Q2D×2/w×3w).[1] In the disseminated leukemia model, NOD/SCID mice were irradiated, injected with MV4-11luc cells via tail vein, and treated with TAK-960 orally at 7.5 mg/kg QD×9.[1] Paclitaxel and AraC were administered intraperitoneally in saline.[1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Following oral administration to tumor-bearing mice, TAK-960 showed dose-proportional plasma exposure and preferential distribution in tumor tissue. [1] Peak drug concentrations in tumor tissue occurred 4–8 hours after administration, while pHH3-induced peaks occurred at 24 hours, indicating a delayed pharmacodynamic response. [1]
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In in vivo studies of delayed tumor growth, oral administration of 10 mg/kg TAK-960 to mice in combination with radiotherapy did not cause significant weight loss or significant side effects. [2] The dose of 10 mg/kg was determined to be the maximum dose that would not affect tumor growth rate when administered alone. [2]

| Additional Infomation |
TAK-960, an oral Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) inhibitor, has potential antitumor activity. TAK-960 selectively inhibits PLK1, inducing selective G2/M phase cell cycle arrest in various tumor cells, followed by apoptosis; while in normal cells, TAK-960 causes reversible G1 and G2 phase cell cycle arrest but does not induce apoptosis. PLK1 inhibition may lead to suppression of the proliferation of PLK1-overexpressing tumor cells. PLK1, named after the polo gene in Drosophila, is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a crucial role in the regulation of mitosis. TAK-960 is an orally bioavailable PLK1 inhibitor that has shown broad-spectrum antitumor activity in preclinical models, including tumors resistant to paclitaxel and doxorubicin due to MDR1 overexpression. [1] It has entered a phase I clinical trial in patients with advanced cancer. [1]
