In vitro

AZD5991 is a potent and direct inhibitor of Mcl-1 with high selectivity versus other Bcl-2 family proteins. This compound binds directly to Mcl-1 and induces rapid apoptosis in cancer cells, most notably myeloma and acute myeloid leukemia (GI50 < 100nM), by activating the Bak-dependent mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. In a panel of cancer-derived cell lines of hematological or solid tumor origin, this chemical preferentially kills hematological cells[1][3].

In vivo

AZD5991 shows potent antitumor activity in vivo with complete tumor regression in several models of multiple myeloma and acute myeloid leukemia after a single tolerated dose as monotherapy or in combination with venetoclax. In these in vivo studies, the cytotoxic activity of this compound tightly correlates with induction of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway as evidenced by cleavage of caspase-3 and PARP[1].
