Introduction: Drugs that interfere with the normal progression of mitosis belong to the most successful cytotoxic agents currently used for anticancer treatment. Aurora kinases are serine/threonine kinases that function as key regulators of mitosis and are frequently overexpressed in human cancers. The use of several small molecule aurora kinase inhibitors as potential anticancer therapeutic is being investigated. Danusertib (formerly PHA-739358) is a small ATP competitive molecule that inhibits aurora A, B and C kinases. Interestingly, danusertib also inhibits several receptor tyrosine kinases such as Abl, Ret, FGFR-1 and TrkA. These tyrosine kinases are involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of malignancies and the observed multi-target inhibition may increase the antitumor activity resulting in extending the indication. Danusertib was one of the first aurora kinase inhibitors to enter the clinic and has been studied in Phase I and II trials. Areas covered: This review provides an updated summary of preclinical and clinical experience with danusertib up to July 2011. Expert opinion: Future studies with danusertib should focus on the possibility of combining this agent with other targeted anticancer agents, chemotherapy or radiotherapy. As a single agent, danusertib may show more promise in the treatment of leukemias than in solid tumors. 相似文献

Aurora kinase A (AURKA) carries out an essential role in proliferation and involves in cisplatin resistance in various cancer cells. Overexpression of AURKA is associated with the poor prognosis of cancer patients. Thus, AURKA has been considered as a target for cancer therapy. Developing AURKA inhibitors became an important issue in cancer therapy. A natural compound emodin mainly extracted from rhubarbs possesses anti-cancer properties. However, the effect of emodin on AURKA has never been investigated. In the present study, molecular docking analysis indicated that emodin interacts with AURKA protein active site. We also found nine emodin analogues from Key Organic database by using ChemBioFinder software. Among that, one analogue 8L-902 showed a similar anti-cancer effect as emodin. The bindings of emodin and 8L-902 on AURKA protein were confirmed by cellular thermal shift assay. Furthermore, emodin inhibited the AURKA kinase activity in vitro and enhanced the cisplatin-DNA adduct level in a resistant ovarian cancer cell line. It seems that emodin may have the potential to inhibit cancer cell growth and enhance cisplatin therapy in cancer with resistance. Collectively, our finding reveals a novel AURKA inhibitor, emodin, which may be vulnerable to ovarian cancer therapy in the future. 相似文献

Human Aurora kinases, including Aurora kinase A (AURKA), B (AURKB), and C (AURKC), play an essential role in mitotic events such as monitoring of the mitotic checkpoint, creation of bipolar mitotic spindle and alignment of centrosomes on it, also regulating centrosome separation, bio‐orientation of chromosomes and cytokinesis. AURKA and AURKB are key regulators of mitosis and centrosome via polymerizing microfilaments and controlling chromatid segregation. In particular, AURKA plays critical roles in the regulation of mitotic entry, centrosome function, bipolar spindle assembly, and chromosome segregation. AURKA has been found to be overexpressed in various solid and haematological cancers and has been linked with poor prognosis. Its important role in cancer initiation, growth, and metastasis has brought the focus to search for potent and selective AURKA inhibitors for cancer treatment. MLN8237, also known as alisertib, is one selective AURKA inhibitor that has shown remarkable anticancer effects in preclinical studies. Alisertib exhibits favourable pharmacokinetic properties. Alisertib has generally showed good partial response rates of 4–52% and good safety profiles in Phase I and II trials when it is solely administered as well as combined with cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs. Recently, the multicentre, randomized Phase III study of alisertib in patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T‐cell lymphoma has been discontinued due to unsatisfactory efficacy. The low risk of side effects, accessibility, and effectiveness of alisertib makes it a new promising anticancer therapy and further mechanistic and clinical studies are warranted. 相似文献

AMG 900 is a small molecule being developed as an orally administered, highly potent, and selective pan-aurora kinase inhibitor. The aim of the investigations was to characterize in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of AMG 900 in preclinical species. AMG 900 was rapidly metabolized in liver microsomes and highly bound to plasma proteins in the species tested. It was a weak Pgp substrate with good passive permeability. AMG 900 exhibited a low-to-moderate clearance and a small volume of distribution. Its terminal elimination half-life ranged from 0.6 to 2.4?h. AMG 900 was well-absorbed in fasted animals with an oral bioavailability of 31% to 107%. Food intake had an effect on rate (rats) or extent (dogs) of AMG 900 oral absorption. The clearance and volume of distribution at steady state in humans were predicted to be 27.3?mL/h/kg and 93.9?mL/kg, respectively. AMG 900 exhibited acceptable PK properties in preclinical species and was predicted to have low clearance in humans. AMG 900 is currently in Phase I clinical testing as a treatment for solid tumours. Preliminary human PK results appear to be consistent with the predictions. 相似文献

Aberrant signal transduction by mutant or overexpressed protein kinases has emerged as a promising target for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We here present a novel low molecular weight kinase inhibitor, AKN-032, targeting the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) and discovered in a new type of screening funnel combining the target therapy approach with sequential cellular screens. AKN-032 was identified among 150 selected hits from three different high throughput kinase screens. Further characterization showed inhibitory activity on FLT3 enzyme with an IC 50 of 70 nM. Western blot analysis revealed reduced autophosphorylation of the FLT3-receptor in AML cell line MV4-11 cells after exposure to AKN-032. Flow cytometry disclosed cytotoxic activity against MV4-11, but not against non-malignant 3T3-L1 fibroblast cells. Using a fluorometric microculture cytotoxicity assay, AKN-032 was tested against 15 cell lines and displayed a potent cytotoxic activity in AML cell lines MV4-11 (IC 50 = 0.4 μM) and Kasumi-1 (IC 50 = 2.3 μM). AKN-032 was also highly cytotoxic in tumor cells from AML patients in vitro. Furthermore, AKN-032 demonstrated significant antileukemic effect in a relatively resistant in vivo hollow fiber mouse model. No major toxicity was observed in the animals. In conclusion, AKN-032 is a promising new kinase inhibitor with significant in vivo and in vitro activity in AML. Results from the hollow fiber mouse assay suggest a favorable toxicity profile. Future studies will focus on pharmacokinetic properties, toxicity as well as further clarifying the mechanisms of action of AKN-032 in AML. 相似文献

Introduction: Outcomes for the majority of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remain poor. Over the past decade, significant progress has been made in the understanding of the cytogenetic and molecular determinants of AML pathogenesis. One such advance is the identification of recurring mutations in the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 gene ( FLT3). Currently, this marker, which appears in approximately one-third of all AML patients, not only signifies a poorer prognosis but also identifies an important target for therapy. FLT3 inhibitors have now undergone clinical evaluation in Phase I, II and III clinical trials, as both single agents and in combination with chemotherapeutics. Unfortunately, to date, none of the FLT3 inhibitors have gained FDA approval for the treatment of patients with AML. Yet, several promising FLT3 inhibitors are being evaluated in all phases of drug development. Areas covered: This review aims to highlight the agents furthest along in their development. It also focuses on those FLT3 inhibitors that are being evaluated in combination with other anti-leukemia agents. Expert opinion: The authors believe that the field of research for FLT3 inhibitors remains promising, despite the historically poor prognosis of this subgroup of patients with AML. The most promising areas of research will likely be the elucidation of the mechanisms of resistance to FLT3 inhibitors, and development of potent FLT3 inhibitors alone or in combination with hypomethylating agents, cytotoxic chemotherapy or with other targeted agents. 相似文献

MK-0457 inhibits aurora, BCR-ABL and other kinases and may be clinically active in imatinib resistant leukemia. To define mediators of MK-0457 responsiveness, kinase inhibitory profiles were examined in multiple cell models of imatinib sensitive and resistant disease. Aurora and BCR-ABL kinase inhibition were consistently measured at 20-100 nM and 2-10 μM MK-0457, respectively, but expression of T315I-BCR-ABL and overexpression of Lyn kinase reduced MK-0457 sensitivity. Aurora kinase inhibition was associated with cell cycle restriction and p53 induction and p53-null cells were far less responsive to MK-0457, requiring BCR-ABL inhibitory concentrations for apoptotic activity. In wild-type p53 expressing CML cells MK-0457 sensitivity was modulation by alterations in p53 levels through HDM-2 inhibition and gene silencing. MK-0457 suppressed aurora kinase activity and induced apoptosis in imatinib resistant clinical specimens expressing T315I and other BCR-ABL mutations without effecting BCR-ABL kinase activity. Together, these results suggest that MK-0457 apoptotic activity in CML cells is primarily associated with aurora kinase inhibition but can be altered by multiple molecular changes associated with disease progression or acquisition of imatinib resistance. 相似文献

Importance of the field: Although the introduction of imatinib revolutionized the management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), some patients exhibit resistance or intolerance to the drug. Nilotinib induces high and rapid rates of cytogenetic and molecular responses. With recent approval for newly diagnosed patients with chronic phase CML, the current algorithm for treatment will probably be transformed. Areas covered in this review: This review will describe evaluations of nilotinib in all phases of CML from 1995 to the present. Early preclinical data and Phase I, Phase II and Phase III evaluations will demonstrate the role of nilotinib in newly diagnosed CML, as well as in imatinib-resistant or imatinib-intolerant disease. What the reader will gain: Mutations in the BCR-ABL kinase domain are responsible for the majority of resistance to imatinib. In comparison with imatinib, nilotinib displays increased selectivity and potency at inhibiting proliferation of BCR-ABL expressing cells. Although several mutations, including T315I, remain resistant to nilotinib, activity in all phases of CML has been reported. Take home message: Nilotinib induces high and rapid rates of cytogenetic and molecular response, with less progression to advanced forms of disease compared with imatinib. Considering that the rapid achievement of these clinical milestones has been associated with positive long-term outcomes, nilotinib as initial therapy in patients with CML in chronic phase represents the future in CML treatment. Longer follow-up is necessary to recognize survival advantages. 相似文献

Importance of the field: Several therapeutic options, including tyrosine kinase inhibitors, exist for the treatment of patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Despite impressive results, there is room for improvement for those patients who are either resistant or intolerant to imatinib. Areas covered in this review: An overview is given on the clinical results with nilotinib, a rationally designed second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, as first- and second-line therapy in patients with Ph-positive CML. Important factors in predicting resistance to nilotinib and guiding therapeutic decisions are addressed. What the reader will gain: Knowledge on the clinical efficacy and safety of nilotinib after imatinib failure and as first-line treatment. Point mutations in the kinase domain (KD) of BCR-ABL1 are important determinants of clinical sensitivity to currently available tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including nilotinib. Information on specific BCR-ABL1 KD mutations and safety profiles assist in therapeutic decision making. Take home message: Nilotinib is a highly effective and well-tolerated therapeutic option in patients with Ph-positive CML after imatinib failure. Early evidence demonstrating increased efficacy has allowed expanding nilotinib to previously untreated patients in chronic phase. Insights into mechanisms of resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors and predictive factors for response will allow for a more individualized use of these agents. 相似文献

1. Quizartinib absorption, metabolism and excretion were characterized in six healthy men receiving a single oral dose of 60?mg (≈100?μCi) of [ 14C]-quizartinib. Blood, plasma, urine and faeces were collected ≤336?h postdose.2. Four hours postdose, maximum mean?±?SD blood radioactivity concentrations were 296?±?67.4?ng equivalents/g. A mean?±?SD of 1.64?±?0.482% and 76.3?±?6.23% of the dose was recovered in urine and faeces, respectively, within 336?h postdose.3. Radio-detector high-performance liquid chromatography (radio-HPLC) and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) showed two main radioactive peaks in plasma, unchanged quizartinib and mono-oxidative metabolite, AC886. Five additional metabolites in plasma were identified by LC–MS, but low levels prevented radio-HPLC detection. Although unchanged quizartinib was the main radioactive component in faeces (mean, 4.0% of administered dose), 15 metabolites representing a mean of 1.0–3.5% of administered dose were found. Quizartinib was predominantly metabolized by phase I biotransformations (oxidation, reduction, dealkylation, deamination, hydrolysis and combinations thereof).4. This study indicated that quizartinib was rapidly and orally bioavailable, extensively metabolized, with AC886 as the major circulating metabolite, and predominantly eliminated in faeces. Quizartinib was well tolerated in the subjects. 相似文献

Aurora A, B and C are a family of serine-threonine protein kinases that regulate distinct functions of the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. All three Auroras are overexpressed in human cancers with an associated polyploid phenotype. Crystal structures of Aurora A or B with bound small molecular inhibitors have provided detailed insight of the active site, mode of binding and hotspots for developing resistance through point mutations. Structural studies have aided fragment-based rational drug discovery of Aurora inhibitors, including compounds specific for Aurora A or B. Aurora inhibitors have excellent antitumor activity in rodent models of cancer. At present, Aurora inhibitors are being evaluated in Phase I trials. The future holds promise for rational combinations in both solid and hematological malignancies. 相似文献
