Description

CCT-251921 is a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable CDK8 inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.3 nM.

IC50 & Target[1]

CDK8

2.3 nM (IC50)

CDK19

2.6 nM (IC50)

In Vitro

CCT-251921 has acceptable aqueous solubility and demonstrates minimal activity when tested in a panel of 55 receptors, ion channels, and enzymes at 1 μM and in a panel of 279 kinases; weak inhibition of CYPs is observed. CCT-251921 demonstrates potent inhibition of reporter-based readouts measuring basal WNT pathway activity in human cancer cell lines that have constitutively activated WNT pathway signaling: LS174T (β-catenin mutant), SW480 and Colo205 (APC mutant) or PA-1 human teratocarcinoma cells that are WNT ligand dependent[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

CCT-251921 shows improved oral pharmacokinetics and pharmaceutical properties in order to facilitate further evaluation of CDK8/19 pharmacology and progression into preclinical efficacy and safety studies. In APC-mutant SW620 human colorectal carcinoma xenograft model, CCT-251921 treatment reduces mice tumor weight (54.2%) at day 15. The inhibition of STAT1SER727 phosphorylation is maintained for more than 6 h after the last dose[1].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.08 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.08 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Cell Assay
[1]

7dF3 cells are treated with CCT-251921 ranging in final concentration from 90 μM to 0.3 nM. After 2 h of further incubation, β-oestradiol is added to a final concentration of 10 μM. The cells are incubated and then 25 μL of luciferase reagent is added and mixed. After leaving the plate for 60 min at room temperature, luminescence is read on a plate luminescence reader[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice: Animals are dosed orally by gavage every 24 h at 0.1 mL per 10 g body weight. Tumors are measured three times weekly by Vernier calipers and body weights recorded. At the end of the study, animals are culled at intervals: 3 control and 3 treated at 1, 2, 6, and 24 h after the final dose. Heparinized blood is collected by cardiac puncture, spun, and plasma snap frozen for analysis of compound exposure. Tumors are excised, weighed and samples snap frozen for compound quantification and PD analyses. The 30 mg/kg q.d. schedule is well tolerated with no significant body weight loss. Tumor growth is significantly inhibited[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
