Biological activity
Description
Target:
HER2:6 nM (IC50)
In Vivo
In the xenograft model, treatment with TAK-165 significantly inhibits growth of UMUC-3, ACHN, and LN-REC4. The antitumor effect after 14 days treatment are 22.9%, 26.0%, and 26.5% in UMUC3, ACHN and LN-REC4, respectively[1].
In Vitro
TAK-165 specifically inhibits HER2 tyrosine kinase with an IC50 6 nM and does not inhibit other types tyrosine kinase up to 25 000 nM. TAK-165 inhibits HER2 phosphorylation and its down-stream Akt and MAPK in HER2 strongly expressing cells (BT474 breast cancer cell line). TAK-165 sensitivity depends on HER2 levels of each cell line. Especially, BT474 cells which over-express HER2 strongly is highly sensitive (IC50=0.005 µM) and PC-3 cells which express HER2 very weakly is less sensitive (IC50=4.62 µM). But, HT1376 and ACHN cells that over-expressed EGFR showed high IC50 (IC50>25 µM)[1].
Kinase Assay
Cell Assay
Cells are treated with TAK-165 at various concentrations for 72 h. After the incubation period, the cells are counted. The IC50 value is calculated from a dose–response curve generated by least-squares linear regression of the response[1].
Animal Administration
Mice: UMUC-3 and LN-REC4 cells are implanted with 50% Matrigel solution. After the tumor volume reaches 200–300 mm3 in LN-REC4 and UMUC-3 cells and to 100–200 mm3 in ACHN, the mice are treated orally twice daily for 14 days with vehicle (control) or 10 or 20 mg/kg per day of TAK-165. In the Herceptin study against UMUC-3, treatments consist of a twice weekly intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg/kg Herceptin in PBS for 2 weeks. Tumor growth is assessed by electronic caliper measurement of tumor diameter in two dimensions, and tumor volume is calculated[1].
