Brief Description

AS703026(Pimasertib) is a highly selective, potent, ATP non-competitive allosteric inhibitor of MEK1/2 with IC50 of 5 nM-2 μM in MM cell lines.
Target: MEK1/2
in vitro: AS703026 is a novel, selective, orally bioavailable MEK1/2 inhibitor that binds to the distinctive MEK allosteric site and therefore exhibits exquisite kinase selectivity. AS703026 inhibits growth and survival of human multiple myeloma (MM) cells, including U266 and INA-6, with IC50 of 5 nM and 11 nM, respectively. Such an inhibitory effect by AS703026 is mediated by G0-G1 cell cycle arrest and is accompanied by reduced expresson of the MAF oncogene. AS703026 further induces apoptosis via caspase-3 and PARP cleavage in MM cells, both in the presence or absence of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). AS703026 may be an effective therapy in colorectal cancer caused by K-Ras mutation. AS703026 (10 μM) effectively inhibits the ERK pathway, proliferation, and transformation in human DLD-1 colorectal cancer cells what carry a mutant allele of K-Ras (D-MUT).
in vivo: AS703026 (15 and 30 mg/kg) significantly inhibits tumor growth in a human plasmacytoma xenograft model of H929 MM cells. This can be correlated with downregulated pERK1/2, induced PARP cleavage, and decreased microvessels. AS703026 (10 mg/kg) inhibits tumor growth, and markedly decreases p-ERK level in a xenograft mouse model of human K-Ras mutated (D-MUT) colorectal tumor.
