BIIB021

A potent, selective, orally available HSP90 inhibitor with Ki of 1.7 nM for Hsp90α; displays no significant activity against a broad panel of protein kinases, and Na+K+ ATPase; induces the degradation of Hsp90 client proteins including HER-2, AKT, and Raf-1 and upregulates expression of Hsp70 and Hsp27 in tumor cells; inhibits cell growth and induces cell death in cell lines from a variety of tumor types at nanomolar concentrations (IC50=60 nM in N87 cells) ; exhibits antitumor effects in vivo.Breast Cancer Phase 1 Discontinued (In Vitro) :BIIB021 binds in the ATP-binding pocket of Hsp90, interferes with Hsp90 chaperone function, and results in client protein degradation and tumor growth inhibition. BIIB021 inhibits tumor cell (BT474, MCF-7, N87, HT29, H1650, H1299, H69 and H82) proliferation with IC50 from 0.06-0.31 μM. BIIB021 induces the degradation of Hsp90 client proteins including HER-2, Akt, and Raf-1 and up-regulated expression of the heat shock proteins Hsp70 and Hsp27.BIIB021 inhibits Hodgkin's lymphoma cells (KM-H2, L428, L540, L540cy, L591, L1236 and DEV) with IC50 from 0.24-0.8 μM. BIIB021 shows low activity in lymphocytes from healthy individuals. BIIB021 inhibits the constitutive activity of NF-κB despite defective IκB. BIIB021 induces the expression of ligands for the activating NK cell receptor NKG2D on Hodgkin's lymphoma cells resulting in an increased susceptibility to NK cell-mediated killing.BIIB021 enhances the in vitro radiosensitivity of HNSCCA cell lines (UM11B and JHU12) with a corresponding reduction in the expression of key radioresponsive proteins, increases apoptotic cells and enhances G2 arrest.BIIB021 is considerably more active than 17-AAG against adrenocortical carcinoma H295R. The cytotoxic activity of BIIB021 is not influenced by loss of NQO1 or Bcl-2 overexpression, molecular lesions that do not prevent client loss but are nonetheless associated with reduced cell killing by 17-AAG. BIIB021 is also active in 17-AAG resistant cell lines (NIH-H69, MES SA Dx5, NCI-ADR-RES, Nalm6) . (In Vivo) :Oral administration of BIIB021 leads to tumor growth inhibition in many tumor xenograft models including N87, BT474, CWR22, U87, SKOV3 and Panc-1.BIIB021 effectively inhibits growth of L540cy tumor at a dose of 120 mg/kg. BIIB021 significantly enhances antitumor growth effect of radiation in JHU12 xenograft.
