ProtocolIn VitroThe EC50 values of Cobimetinib (GDC-0973) for 888MEL and A2058 cells are 0.2 μM, 10 μM, respectivelly. Melanoma cells are treated with EC50 concentration of MEK and PI3K inhibitors for 24 hours (888MEL: 0.05 μM GDC-0973, 2.5 μM GDC-0941; A2058: 2.5 μM GDC-0973, 2.5 μM GDC-0941).
In VivoIn the NCI-H2122 KRASG12C mutant non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) xenograft model, treatment with up to 5 mg/kg Cobimetinib (GDC-0973) lead to moderate TGI and at 10 mg/kg approaches tumor stasis.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in µL DMSO(Master liquid concentration mg/mL) ,Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take µL DMSO master liquid, next add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
