Athymic nude mice

Dosage form

100 mg/kg bid; oral taken.

Application

In mice bearing Colo829 tumor xenografts, RG7204 at 100 mg/kg bid for 21 days showed greatly improved antitumor activity compared both with vehicle (P = 0.001) at the end of the study on day 38 after the tumor cell implant. There was complete tumor regression in all 10 mice treated with RG7204 by the end of the study. Survival in the mice treated with RG7204 was significantly better than in those treated with vehicle (P = 0.0008).

Other notes

Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.

1. Impact of P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) and breast cancer resistance protein (ABCG2) on the brain distribution of a novel BRAF inhibitor: vemurafenib (PLX4032). J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2012 Jul;342(1):33-40. doi: 10.1124/jpet.112.192195. Epub 2012 Mar 27.
Abstract
Vemurafenib is a BRAF inhibitor that has been approved by FDA for the treatment of metastatic melanoma patients with a BRAF(V600E) mutation. Active efflux by P-gp and BCRP significantly restricted the brain distribution of vemurafenib at the blood-brain barrier, where active efflux by P-gp and BCRP restricted intracellular accumulation of vemurafenib and altered bidirectional net flux of vemurafenib.

Abstract
Vemurafenib is a mutated BRAF kinase inhibitor that showed response rates of >50% in metastatic melanoma patients with BRAF mutation. In a Phase III study, the treatment of vemurafenib in previously untreated patients led to over survival of 84%, response rates of 48% and prolonged progression-free survival with largely reduced risk of death and disease progression.

Abstract
The combined MAPK oncogene inhibition and metabolic modulation of AMPK is an effective treatment of melanoma cells due to a molecular linkage between the MAPK and the LKB1-AMPK pathways.

Abstract
Although the treatment of vemurafenib, a Braf inhibitor, in melanoma patients with Braf(V600E) mutations resulted in dramatic improvement with decreased risk of death and tumor progression, melanoma cells rapidly acquire vemurafenib resistance, which can be overcome by targeting Stat3-PAX3 signaling pathway.

Background on Vemurafenib (PLX4032, RG7204)

Vemurafenib is an inhibitor of BRAF kinase. It inhibits BRAFV600E and also has inhibitory activity in vitro against several other kinds of kinases, including CRAF, ARAF and wild-type BRAF. Vemurafenib is a competitive small-molecule serine–threonine kinase inhibitor that functions by binding to the ATP-binding domain of mutant BRAF. Vemurafenib can also give rise to activation of downstream MEK by normal RAF homo- and heterodimers in non-BRAF mutated cells, which has been shown to be caused by transactivation of the nondrug-bound partner in BRAF to CRAF heterodimers and CRAF to CRAF homodimers.

Combination therapy with vemurafenib (PLX4032/RG7204) and metformin in melanoma cell lines with distinct driver mutations.[Pubmed:21609436]

J Transl Med. 2011 May 24;9:76.

BACKGROUND: A molecular linkage between the MAPK and the LKB1-AMPK energy sensor pathways suggests that combined MAPK oncogene inhibition and metabolic modulation of AMPK would be more effective than either manipulation alone in melanoma cell lines. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The combination of the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib (formerly PLX4032) and metformin were tested against a panel of human melanoma cell lines with defined BRAF and NRAS mutations for effects on viability, cell cycle and apoptosis. Signaling molecules in the MAPK, PI3K-AKT and LKB1-AMPK pathways were studied by Western blot. RESULTS: Single agent metformin inhibited proliferation in 12 out of 19 cell lines irrespective of the BRAF mutation status, but in one NRASQ61K mutant cell line it powerfully stimulated cell growth. Synergistic anti-proliferative effects of the combination of metformin with vemurafenib were observed in 6 out of 11 BRAFV600E mutants, including highly synergistic effects in two BRAFV600E mutant melanoma cell lines. Antagonistic effects were noted in some cell lines, in particular in BRAFV600E mutant cell lines resistant to single agent vemurafenib. Seven out of 8 BRAF wild type cell lines showed marginally synergistic anti-proliferative effects with the combination, and one cell line had highly antagonistic effects with the combination. The differential effects were not dependent on the sensitivity to each drug alone, effects on cell cycle or signaling pathways. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of vemurafenib and metformin tended to have stronger anti-proliferative effects on BRAFV600E mutant cell lines. However, determinants of vemurafenib and metformin synergism or antagonism need to be understood with greater detail before any potential clinical utility of this combination.
