Product Description

Pamufetinib (TAS-115; TAS115) is a novel potent inhibitor of VEGFR and hepatocyte growth factor receptor (MET)-targeted kinase with anticancer activity. It inhibits rVEGFR2 and rMET with IC50s of 30 and 32 nM, respectively, and has an enhanced safety profile. Tumor angiogenesis is largely dependent on VEGF receptor (VEGFR) signaling. Associated toxicities or resistance to such therapy limit the usefulness of some VEGFR signal-targeted medications, despite their approval for clinical use. In order to get around these restrictions, TAS-115 was created to impede both VEGFR2 and MET's kinase activity as well as their signal-dependent cell growth to the same extent as other known inhibitors of VEGFR or MET. TAS-115 exhibited a higher degree of kinase selectivity in comparison to sunitinib, and it resulted in a comparatively mild growth inhibition (GI50 > 10 μmol/L) in cells that were either MET or VEGFR signal-independent. Moreover, TAS-115 caused less harm than other VEGFR inhibitors in a variety of normal cells. Based on these data, TAS-115 appears to be highly specific and selective, at least when tested in vitro. Given daily for six weeks, even at a serum-saturating dose of TAS-115, TAS-115 completely suppressed the progression of MET-inactivated tumors in in vivo studies by blocking angiogenesis without causing toxicity. TAS-115's remarkable selectivity for kinases and targeted cells was linked to increased tolerability and made it possible to continue treatment without lowering the dosage or requiring a washout period. Moreover, TAS-115 significantly reduced tumor size and increased survival time in mice harboring human cancer that was amplified by MET. Based on these data, TAS-115 appears to be a novel inhibitor that targets VEGFR/MET, offering enhanced antitumor efficacy and reduced toxicity. Furthermore, it has been suggested that EGFR-mutant lung cancer may be controlled in its progression by reversing EGFR-TKI resistance and inhibiting angiogenesis through triple inhibition of EGFR, HGF/Met, and VEGF/VEGF receptor 2, which can be achieved either by a triplet of clinical drugs or by TAS-115 in combination with erlotinib.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
VEGFR2 (IC50 = 30 nM); c-Met (IC50 = 32 nM)
ln Vitro
Pamufetinib is ATP antagonistic, having inhibition constants (Ki) of 12 and 39 nM against rVEGFR2 and rMET, respectively. Similar to other known inhibitors of VEGFR or MET, pamufetinib also strongly suppresses the kinase activity of both VEGFR2 and MET, as well as their signal-dependent cell growth. In comparison to other VEGFR inhibitors, parmatetinib causes less damage to a variety of normal cells[1]. At concentrations below 10 μM, Pamufetinib has no effect on PC-9 or HCC827 cell growth; however, when combined with Erlotinib, it reverses HGF-induced resistance in the cell lines in a concentration-dependent manner. Pamufetinib inhibits the proliferation of endothelial cells and the production of VEGF by cancer cells[2].
ln Vivo
Pamufetinib (50 mg/kg/d) totally stops tumor growth while the patient is receiving treatment. MET-amplified human cancer transplanted models exhibit a 48% regression from the initial tumor volume upon administration of parofendinib (200 mg/kg/d). In this model, 8 mg/kg/d is the estimated 50% effective dose (ED50) of Pamufetinib. These mice's survival is greatly extended by pamufetinib when doses of 50 or 200 mg/kg/d are given[1]. In vivo angiogenesis in PC-9/HGF tumors is inhibited by parofenib. Furthermore, even after the treatment is stopped, the doublet of erlotinib and Pamufetinib effectively inhibits the growth of PC-9/HGF tumors and delays tumor regrowth linked to prolonged inhibition of the tumor vasculature[2].
Enzyme Assay
The mobility shift assay is used in studies of enzyme inhibition. In summary, a 25 μL mixture containing 1/2 the Michaelis constant (Km) level of ATP, 100 mM of HEPES (pH 7.2), 0.003% (w/v) Brij35, 0.04% (v/v) Tween 20, 10 mM of MgCl2, 1 mM of dithiothreitol, a Complete Mini EDTA-free Protease Inhibitor Cocktail Tablet, and a PhosSTOP Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail Tablet are combined with 1.5 μM of FL-Peptide 2 or 2 μg/mL of recombinant VEGFR2 (rVEGFR2, amino acid 790-end, N-terminal 6His Tagged) and 1.5 μM of FL-Peptide 22. The addition of 15 mM EDTA ends the 90-minute incubation period of the reaction mixture at 28°C. Using a LabChip EZ Reader, Version 2.1.82.0 (UCC Version: 1.96, CCD Version: 102), phosphorylated peptide is calculated. Utilizing a logistic regression analysis, the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) is determined based on the quantity of phosphorylated peptide generated in the drug-treated well and the control well. Using the ProfilerPro Kit 1-8, 192 kinase panel assays are conducted and analyzed via a mobility shift assay.
Cell Assay
The MTT dye reduction method is used to measure the growth of cells. Using 10% foetal bovine serum (FBS) per well, tumor cells are seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 2×103 cells/100 mL RPMI-1640 medium. Following a 24-hour incubation period, different reagents are added to each well, and the cells are incubated for an additional 72 hours.Next, 50 μL of MTT solution (2 mg/mL) is added to each well, and the cells are incubated for a further two hours. The dark blue crystals are dissolved by adding 100 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide after the media containing the MTT solution is removed. At test and reference wavelengths of 550 and 630 nm, respectively, the absorbance of every well is measured using a microplate reader. In comparison to untreated controls, the growth percentage is displayed. Every experiment involves testing each reagent concentration at least three times, and in triplicate if possible.
Animal Protocol
Each mouse has a subcutaneous SC-9 fragment inserted via a trocar into its right abdomen. Subcutaneous implants of MKN45 cell suspensions are made and inserted into each naked mouse's right abdomen. There is a calculation for the tumor volume (TV, mm3). Doses of 12.5, 50, and 200 mg/kg/d are the established TAS-115. Sunitinib's maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is 40 mg/kg/d, the dose level that has been established. In the SC-9 xenograft model, oral medication therapy is administered for either 14 or 42 days in a row. TV and body weight are measured twice a week for the duration of the therapy.
