Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	H-ras (Cell-free assay) 1.9 nM N-ras (Cell-free assay) 2.8 nM K-ras-4B (Cell-free assay) 5.2 nM
In vitro	Lonafarnib (SCH66336) at concentrations ranging from 0.1 μM to 8 μM suppresses growth and induces apoptosis of human head and neck squamous carcinoma cells (HNSCC) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. At 8 μM, it suppresses protein kinase B/Akt activity as well as the phosphorylation of the Akt substrates glycogen synthase kinase (GSK)-3β, forkhead transcription factor, and BAD in SqCC/Y1 cells. This compound demonstrates variable antiproliferative effects against the cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 0.6 μM to 32.3 μM. It induces a CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP)-dependent transactivation of the DR5 promoter, thus causing CHOP-dependent DR5 up-regulation. At concentrations below 10 μM, it activates caspase-8 and its downstream caspases, thereby inducing caspase-8-dependent apoptosis in H1792 cells. At 5 μM, it up-regulates DR5 expression, increases cell-surface DR5 distribution, and enhances tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand-induced apoptosis in H1792 cells.
In vivo	Lonafarnib (SCH66336) inhibits HTBI77 human lung carcinoma xenograft growth in nude mice in a dose-dependent fashion. When dosed at 50 mg/kg p.o. bid by oral gavage, it inhibits tumor growth with up to 69% growth inhibition after 21 days of treatment in NOD/SCID mice bearing s.c. flank XEN01, XEN05 or XEN08 GBM xenografts.
