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
IDH2 [1]
(Cell-free assay)
12 nM
In vitro

Enasidenib (AG-221) has been demonstrated to reduce 2-HG levels by >90% and reverse histone and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hypermethylation in vitro, and to induce differentiation in leukemia cell models[2].

In vivo

Enasidenib (AG-221) is able to potently reduce 2HG found in the bone marrow, plasma and urine of engrafted mice. Treatment with this compound also induced a dose dependent, statistically significant, survival benefit. A proliferative burst of the human specific CD45+ blast cells is followed by cellular differentiation as measured by the expression of CD11b, CD14 and CD15 and cell morphology after its administration[2].

It also restores megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitor (MEP) differentiation that is suppressed by mutant IDH2 expression and reverses the effects of mutant IDH2 on DNA methylation in mutant stem/progenitor cells. Clinical trials combining IDH2 inhibitors with other targeted AML therapies are warranted in order to increase therapeutic efficacy[1].
