| Protocol | In Vitro | In vitro activity: PF 573228 blocks the phosphorylation of FAK Tyr397 in REF52 cells, PC3 cells, SKOV-3 cells, L3.6p1 and F-G, MDCK cells with IC50 of 30-500 nM. However, PF 573228 (1 μM) with 80% inhibition of FAK phosphorylation fails to inhibit cell growth or apoptosis. Similar treatment of cells with PF-228 resulted in inhibition of serum or FN-directed migration and decreased focal adhesion turnover. Kinase Assay: Purified activated FAK kinase domain (amino acids 410–689) is reacted with 50 μM ATP, and 10 μg/well of a random peptide polymer of Glu and Tyr (molar ratio of 4:1), poly(Glu/Tyr) in kinase buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 125 mM NaCl, 48 mM MgCl2) for 15 min. Phosphorylation of poly(Glu/Tyr) is challenged with serially diluted compounds at 1/2-Log concentrations starting at a top concentration of 1 μM. Each concentration is run in triplicate. Phosphorylation of poly(Glu/Tyr) is detected with a general anti-phospho-tyrosine (PY20) antibody, followed by horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG antibody. The standard horseradish peroxidase substrate 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine is added, and Optical Density readings at 450 nm are obtained following the addition of stop solution (2 M H2SO4). The IC50 values are determined using the Hill slope model. Cell Assay: Cells (Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are plated for 48 hours before addition of PF-562271. After 3 days cells are fixed by addition of ice cold 25% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) solution prior to staining with Sulforhodamine B (SRB) dye solution. Plates are washed with 1% glacial acetic acid, air-dried and resuspended in 10 mM Tris buffer, pH 10.5 before reading absorbance at 540 nm. Curve fitting and generation of IC50 values is carried out using GraphPad Prism 4 software from six replicates. |

| In Vivo | In several human s.c. xenograft models, PF-562271 exhibits dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition, and produces maximum tumor inhibition for PC-3M, BT474, BxPc3, and LoVo ranging from 78% to 94% inhibition at doses of 25 to 50 mg/kg twice daily, without weight loss, morbidity, or death. PF-562271 (25 mg/kg by p.o.) leads to a significant decrease in tumor progression in both subcutaneous and bone metastasis PC3M-luc-C6 xenograft models. In a Huh7.5 hepatocellular carcinoma xenograft model, combination therapy of sunitinib and PF-562271 targets angiogenesis and tumor aggressiveness, and produces more significant anti-tumor effect than single agent by blocking tumor growth and impacting the ability of the tumor to recover upon withdrawal of the therapy. |
