Product Description

Pimitespib (TAS-116) is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) subtypes alpha and beta [HSP90α/HSP90β] with anticancer activity. It inhibits HSP90α/HSP90β with Kis of 34.7 nM and 21.3 nM, respectively. It has potential antineoplastic and chemo/radiosensitizing activities. TAS-116 specifically binds to and inhibits the activity of Hsp90 alpha and beta; this results in the proteasomal degradation of oncogenic client proteins, which inhibits client protein dependent-signaling, induces apoptosis, and inhibits the proliferation of cells overexpressing HSP90alpha/beta.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Pimitespib binds to both new and the traditional binding pocket of the Hsp-90 that is currently in use. Due to its distinct binding mechanism, pimitespib is extremely effective against Hsp-90α/β without attaching to other Hsp-90s. The human pigment epithelial ARPE-19 cell line and NCI-H929 MM Cell growth[2] are inhibited by pimitespib (0-5 μM, 48). Family proteins, such as GRP94 in the endoplasmic reticulum or TRAP-1 in mitochondria, are also inhibited. Pimitespib (0.125-1 μM, 24 hours) significantly degraded pC-Raf and p-MEK1/2, HSP90 client proteins and important RAS/RAF/MEK dye modulators in INA6 and NCI-H929 MM cells.
ln Vivo
Pimitespib (12.0 mg/kg, lung, 14 d) does not harm the eyes and shows anticancer efficacy in malignancies. Pimitespib does not create any detectable Pimitespib-triggered boost of anti-MM activity in vivo and has a positive safety profile when administered alone or in combination with PS-341 (BTZ), as it is projected to be less dispersed than the liver. When compared to solution dye, mice treated with Pimitespib (10 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg, pass, 38 d), BTZ, or Pimitespib + BTZ demonstrated noticeably increased growth inhibition. In comparison to the solvent control, half of the dye-treated animals (Pimitespib, pass, 10 mg/kg=33 d, 15 mg/kg=37 d, BTZ=36 d, combination=56.5 d) lived noticeably longer [2]. Pimitespib's dose-dependent anticancer activity demonstrates a favorable pharmacokinetic profile; T/C (Pimitespib-treated model versus solvent-treated tumor volume of the model) was 47%, 21%, and 9%, respectively, at dosages of 3.6 mg/kg, 7.1 mg/kg, and 14.0 mg/kg. Pimitespib's bioavailability in mice following simulated absorption was nearly 100%, with a residual rate of 69.0%. In mice, the half-life of pimitespib's terminal elimination is intermediate, with t1/2=8.2 h, 2.5 h, 4.4 h, and 2.2 h for 3.6 mg/kg, face, 7.1 mg/kg, face, 14.0 mg/kg, facial, and involved (4 mg/kg, facial). Compared to other HSP90 implicates, pimitespib is removed from the trial more quickly (t1/2=3.4 hours)[1].

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
