Description: PLX4720 (PLX-4720; PLX 4720), a 7-azaindole/pyrrolopyridine-based vemurafenib derivative discovered by a structure-guided discovery approach, is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of B-RafV600E mutant with potential antitumor activity.

ProtocolIn VitroPLX-4720 displays >10 times selectivity against wild type B-Raf, and >100 times selectivity over other kinases such as Frk, Src, Fak, FGFR, and Aurora A with IC50 of 1.3-3.4 μM. PLX-4720 significantly inhibits the ERK phosphorylation in cell lines bearing B-RafV600E with IC50 of 14-46 nM, but not the cells with wild-type B-Raf. PLX-4720 significantly inhibits the growth of tumor cell lines bearing the B-RafV600E oncogene, such as COLO205, A375, WM2664, and COLO829 with GI50 of 0.31 μM, 0.50 μM, 1.5 μM, and 1.7 μM, respectively. In addition, PLX-4720 treatment at 1 μM induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis exclusively in the B-RafV600E-positive 1205Lu cells, but not in the B-Raf wild-type C8161 cells.
In VivoOral administration of PLX-4720 at 20 mg/kg/day induces significant tumor growth delays and regressions in B-RafV600E-dependent COLO205 tumor xenografts, without obvious adverse effects in mice even at dose of 1 g/kg. PLX-4720 at 100 mg/kg twice daily almost completely eliminates the 1205Lu xenografts bearing B-RafV600E, while has no activity against C8161 xenografts bearing wild-type B-Raf. The anti-tumor effects of PLX-4720 correlate with the blockade of MAPK pathway in those cells harboring the V600E mutation.
