Working concentration: mg/ml;

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 addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
ERK phosphorylation [1]
0.4 nM
MEK1/2 [1]
7 nM
In vitro
AZD8330 potently and strongly inhibits MEK 1/2. This compound has no inhibitory activity against over 200 other kinases including at concentrations up to 10 μM. It demonstrates sub-nanomolar potency in mechanistic (pERK) and low to sub-nanomolar potency in functional (proliferation) assays in MEK 1/2 inhibitor sensitive cell lines. [1]
Kinase Assay
MEK1 enzymatic assays
NH2-terminal hexahistidine tagged, constitutively active MEK1 (S218D, S222D ΔR4F) is expressed in baculovirus-infected Hi5 insect cells and purified by immobilized metal affinity chromatography, ion exchange, and gel filtration. The activity of MEK1 is assessed by measuring the incorporation of [γ- 33P]phosphate from [γ-33P]ATP onto ERK2. The assay is carried out in a 96-well polypropylene plate with an incubation mixture (100 μL) composed of 25 mM HEPES (pH 7.4), 10 mM MgCl2, 5 mM β-glycerolphosphate, 100 μM sodium orthovanadate, 5 mM DTT, 5 nM MEK1, 1 μM ERK2, and 0 to 80 nM AZD8330 (final concentration of 1% DMSO). The reactions are initiated by the addition of 10 μM ATP (with 0.5 μC k[γ-33P]ATP/well) and incubated at room temperature for 45 min. An equal volume of 25% trichloracetic acid is added to stop the reaction and precipitate the proteins. Precipitated proteins are trapped onto glass fiber B filter plates, excess labeled ATP is washed off with 0.5% phosphoric acid, and radioactivity is counted in a liquid scintillation counter. ATP dependence is determined by varying the amount of ATP in the reaction mixture. The data are globally fitted.
In vivo
In a Calu-6 rat xenograft pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model a single, 1.25 mg/kg oral dose of AZD8330 inhibits ERK phosphorylation by > 90% for between 4 and 8 hours. Doses as low as 0.4 mg/kg once daily are sufficient for > 80% tumor growth inhibition in the Calu-6 nude rat xenograft model. In the Calu-6 model, this compound inhibits tumor growth in a dose-dependent fashion, at 0.3 mg/kg and 1.0 mg/kg once daily. [1]
