In vitro

In cell lines from multiple solid tumor lineages, combination treatment with Citarinostat (ACY-241) enhances inhibition of proliferation and increases cell death relative to either single agent alone. This compound also results in more frequent occurrence of mitotic cells with abnormal multipolar spindles and aberrant mitoses, and is associated with increased frequency of abnormal multipolar mitotic spindle formation, induction of aneuploidy, and increased cell death. In A2780 ovarian cancer cells, 24 hour treatment with 300 nM ACY-241 results in increased hyperacetylation of α-tubulin, consistent with inhibition of the tubulin deacetylase HDAC6. Low exposures of it result in selective inhibition of HDAC6, while higher exposures lead to inhibition of Class I HDAC isozymes.

In vivo

Compared to non-selective pan-HDAC inhibitors, Citarinostat (ACY-241) has a favourable safety profile. It has the potential for a substantially reduced side effect profile versus current nonselective HDAC inhibitor drug candidates due to reduced potency against Class I HDACs while retaining the potential for anticancer effectiveness.
