    Description

    LCL161 is a IAP inhibitor which inhibits XIAP in HEK293 cell and cIAP1 in MDA-MB-231 cell with IC50s of 35 and 0.4 nM, respectively.

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 35 nM (XIAP, in HEK293 cell), 0.40 nM (cIAP1, in MDA-MB-231)[1]

    In Vitro

    LCL161 shows anti-proliferative effects and reduces cell viability significantly in Hep3B (IC50=10.23 μM) and PLC5 (IC50=19.19 μM) cells in a dose-dependent manner. LCL161 induces apoptosis significantly in both the sensitive cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. LCL161 significantly down regulates the expression of cIAP1, starting at very low concentrations. LCL161 at low concentrations inhibits cIAP1 starting at the concentration of 0.5 nM[2]. LCL161 is a small molecule oral IAP antagonist in development for use in combination with cytotoxic agents. The effect of LCL161 on CYP3A4/5 (CYP3A) activity is investigated in vitro. Results in human liver microsomes indicated LCL161 inhibited CYP3A in a concentration- and time-dependent manner (KI of 0.797 μM and Kinact of 0.0803 min-1). LCL161 activates human PXR in a reporter gene assay and induced CYP3A4 mRNA up to ~5-fold in human hepatocytes[3].

    In Vivo

    Tumor-bearing mice are treated with vehicle or LCL161 p.o. at a dose of 50 mg/kg/day, or SC-2001 p.o. at a dose of 10 mg/kg/day, 5 days a week, or in combination for the duration of the study. Tumor growth is significantly inhibited by co-treatment with SC2001 and LCL161 and tumor size in the co-treatment group is only one third of that of the control group at the end of the study[2]. LCL161 is a first-in-class oral Smac mimetic shown to induce degradation of cIAP1 and cleavage of caspase 3 in mouse xenograft models[4].

    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 (4.99 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

      This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

      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 (4.99 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
    [3]

    Cells are plated (3×104 viable cells/well) in 96-well clear bottom white plates and the plates are incubated for ~24 hours at 37°C (5% CO2/95% air) in a humidified incubator. The cells (six replicate wells) are then treated with various concentrations (0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, or 50 µM) of LCL161, or vehicle control (0.1% DMSO, final concentration) for 24 hours in Puracyp dosing media. After the incubation period, the cells are washed with PBS, lysed and the luciferase substrate is added according to the vendor instructions. An aliquot of each well is transferred to the identical wells of black 96-well plates. The luminescence of each well is measured with a TopCount NXT Microplate Scintillation and Luminescence Counter. Cell viability is measured in separate plates treated identically to the PXR-reporter gene assay plates by measurement of ATP content of the cells using the CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay kit. Cell viability is >80% for all treatments[3].

    Animal Administration
    [2][4]

    Mice[2]
    Male NCr athymic nude mice (5-7 weeks of age) are used. Each mouse is inoculated s.c. in the dorsal flank with 1×106 Huh-7 cells suspended in 0.1 mL of serum-free medium containing 50% Matrigel. When tumors reach 200-300 mm3, mice receives LCL161 (50 mg/kg) or SC-2001 (10 mg/kg) p.o., or a combination of LCL161 and SC-2001, once daily. Controls receive vehicle. Tumors are measured weekly using calipers and their volumes calculated using the following standard formula: width2×length×0.52. LCL161 is a first-in-class oral Smac mimetic shown to induce degradation of cIAP1 and cleavage of caspase 3 in mouse xenograft models .
    Rats[4]
    LCL161 is administered orally, once weekly in 21-day cycles, at a starting dose of 10 mg (calculated by using one tenth of the dose that caused severe toxicity in 10% of rats and converted to a human-equivalent dose). In the MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer xenograft model, once-weekly and twice-daily LCL161 dosing are similarly efficacious. Once weekly is better tolerated, with reduced weight loss.

    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.
