Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	VEGFR2/KDR (HUVECs) 0.5 nM c-Kit (HUVECs) 2 nM VEGFR3/FLT4 (HUVECs) <=3 nM VEGFR1/FLT1 (HUVECs) 5 nM PDGFRβ (HUVECs) 5 nM FGFR1 (HUVECs) 26 nM PDGFRα (HUVECs) 36 nM
In vitro	Cediranib (AZD2171) inhibits VEGF-stimulated proliferation with IC50 of 0.4 nM and suppresses PDGF-AA with IC50 of 0.04 μM in MG63 cell lines. It has been shown to block Flt1-associated kinase with IC50 of 5 nM and VEGF-C and VEGF-D receptor Flt-4 with IC50 less than 3 nM. In addition, the IC50 values for inhibition of c-Kit and PDGFRβ tyrosine kinase are 2 nM and 5 nM respectively. Furthermore, no inhibition of enzyme activity is observed when 10 μM of this compound is assayed with 100 μM ATP against AMPK, Chk1 Akt/PKB and others. Micromolar concentrations are needed to prevent tumor cell proliferation in vitro.
Kinase Assay	Kinase inhibition
Kinase Assay	Cediranib (AZD2171) is dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 10 mM. All enzyme assays are run at, or just below, the respective K_m for ATP (0.2 - 30 μM). The inhibitory activity of this compound is determined against a range of recombinant tyrosine kinases [KDR, Flt-1, Flt-4, c-Kit, PDGFRα, PDGFRβ, CSF-1R, Flt-3, FGFR1, Src, Abl, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), ErbB2, Aurora A, and Aurora B] using ELISA. Selectivity versus CDK2 and CDK4 serine/threonine kinases is examined using scintillation proximity assays with a retinoblastoma substrate and [γ-sup>33P]ATP. Activity of it is compared to MAPK kinase (MEK), which shows dual specificity. It is determined using a MAPK substrate, [γ-³³P]ATP, and paper capture/scintillation counting.
In vivo	Cediranib (AZD2171) even suppresses tubule sprouting at subnanomolar concentrations and inhibits VEGF-induced angiogenesis. This compound causes hypertrophy in bone growth plate and prevents luteal development in ovary. These are physiological processes that are dependent upon angiogenesis. It shows broad spectrum activity in human tumor models at doses that are well tolerated. Besides, it causes regression of vascular tissues in human lung tumor xenografts.
