Hodoodo CAT#: H200848
CAS#: 1138549-36-6 (free base)
Description: CX-5461 is a first-in-class non-genotoxic small molecule targeted inhibitor of RNA polymerase I (Pol I) that activates the p53 pathway without causing DNA damage. CX-5461 selectively inhibits rRNA synthesis by Pol I in the nucleolus, but does not inhibit mRNA synthesis by RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) and does not inhibit DNA replication or protein synthesis. Inhibition of Pol I results in nucleolar stress and release of ribosomal proteins (RP) from the nucleolus. The RP bind to Mdm2 and liberate p53 to orchestrate apoptosis in cancer cells. CX-5461 demonstrates a favorable preclinical profile, potently and selectively kills cancer cells, demonstrates robust in vivo efficacy in multiple models, and has demonstrated oral bioavailability in multiple species.

More Info:
Biological target: | CX-5461 inhibits RNA polymerase I-driven transcription of rRNA with IC50s of 142, 113, and 54 nM in HCT-116, A375, and MIA PaCa-2 cells, respectively. |
In vitro activity: | Pancreatic cancer has one of the highest rates of metastasis among solid cancers, and a better understanding of the anti-migratory effects of new drugs is essential in order to provide more effective tools for therapeutic purposes. The effect of CX-5461 on cell migration was investigated using a wound healing assay. CX-5461 treatment inhibited cell migration significantly at 16, 20, and 22 h after treatment, resulting in 40% cell migration in treated cells compared to 65% in untreated cells after 16 h (Figure 2a,b). Notably, at the more advanced time points of 20 and 22 h, the cell migration of CX-5461 treated cells remained 40%, compared to increased migration of the untreated cells.

In vivo activity: | The potential of CX-5461 and PARPi (PARP inhibitors) interaction was investigated in vivo in a BRCA2-mutated, HR-deficient post one line of platinum treatment (high grade serious ovarian cancer) HGSOC-PDX (#19B) mouse model. The administration of CX-5461 as a single agent resulted in stable disease and a statistically significant survival benefit (median time to harvest (at ethical endpoint) (TTH) for CX-5461 treatment 53 days vs vehicle 22 days, p-value 0.00285 compared with vehicle) (Fig. 9a).
