In Vitro CHIR-124 is 500- to 5,000-fold less active against other cell cycle kinases, such as cyclin-dependent kinase 2/cyclin A (0.19 μM), cdc2/cyclin B (0.51 μM), and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/cyclin D (2.1 μM). CHIR-124 (≥0.9 nM) in combination with SN-38 (≥0.42 nM) causes significant synergy or >10% deviation from additivity in human cancer cell lines expressing mutant p53, and these values overlap and fall below the IC50s for SN-38 (1.2×10-7 M) and CHIR-124 (2.2×10-7 M), respectively. Moreover, CHIR-124 (100 nM) abrogates the SN-38-induced S and G2-M phase cell cycle checkpoints. CHIR-124 (200 nM) leads to a 2.5-fold elevated level of cdc25A above that of the untreated HCT116 p53−/− cells. The down-regulation of cdc25A induced by SN-38 is completely restored by concurrent or sequential treatment with CHIR-124, proving that CHIR-124 inhibits the Chk1-mediated destruction of cdc25A in whole cells[1]. CHIR-124 occupies the ATP-binding site, inhibits Chk1 (IC50, 0.3 nM) 2,000-fold more potently than Chk2 (IC50, 0.7 μM)[2].
In Vivo CHIR-124 (10 or 20 mg/kg, p.o.) does not have a significant effect on tumor growth when compared with the vehicle-treated group, but it potentiates the growth inhibitory effect of CPT-11 in a human breast carcinoma xenograft model. The potentiation of the tumor growth inhibitory effect of CPT-11 by CHIR-124 is associated with an increase in apoptosis induction in the tumors. CHIR-124 reverses the suppression of phospho-H3 staining induced by CPT-11, indicating abrogation of the G2-M checkpoint by CHIR-124[1].
Kinase Assay For the CHK1 assay, the kinase domain is expressed in Sf9 insect cells, and a biotinylated cdc25c peptide containing the consensus Chk1/Chk2 phosphorylation site (*)(biotin-[AHX]SGSGS*GLYRSPSMP-ENLNRPR[CONH2]) is used as the substrate. A dilution series of CHIR-124 is mixed with a kinase reaction buffer containing a final concentration of 30 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM DTT, 4 mM EDTA, 25 mM β-glycerophosphate, 5 mM MnCl2, 0.01% bovine serum albumin, 1.35 nM CHK1 kinase domain, 0.5 μM peptide substrate, and 1 μM unlabeled ATP, plus 5 nM 33P γ-labeled ATP (specific activity =2,000 Ci/mmol). Reactions and detection of the phosphate transfer are carried out by a radioactive method.
Animal Admin Severe combined immunodeficient mice harboring MDA-MD-435 tumor xenografts are randomized into the following treatment groups of 10: vehicle (captisol) alone, 5 mg/kg CPT-11, 10 mg/kg CHIR-124, 20 mg/kg CHIR-124, 5 mg/kg CPT-11 plus 10 mg/kg CHIR-124, or 5 mg/kg CPT-11 plus 20 mg/kg CHIR-124. Treatment is initiated on the day after randomization (day 1). CPT-11 is given i.p. daily (four times daily) ×5 on days 1 to 5, whereas CHIR-124 is given orally four times daily ×6 on days 2 to 7 in captisol. Percent tumor growth inhibition is defined as % T/C, where T = the treatment group mean, and C = the control group mean. In a similar study, tumors harvested from mice sacrificed on day 4 of treatment are examined for apoptosis by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick-end labeling staining and for mitotic index by immunofluorescence labeling with phospho-histone H3 antibody.
