In vitro study | Like BI2536,BI6727 is an ATP competitive kinase inhibitor belonging to the dihydropteridinone class of compounds. In addition to Plk1,BI6727 also potently inhibits two closely related kinases, Plk2 and Plk3, with IC50 of 5 nM and 56 nM, respectively. BI6727 has no inhibitory activity on more than fifty kinases at concentrations up to 10 μm. BI6727 inhibits the proliferation of multiple cell lines derived from various cancer tissues, including HCT116, NCI-H460, BRO, GRANTA-519, HL-60, THP-1 and Raji cells, with EC50 of 23 nM, 21 nM, 11 nM, 15 nM, 32 nM, 36 nM and 37 nM. In NCI-H460 cells, BI6727 (100 nM) induced aggregation of mitotic cells with unipolar spindles and positive staining for phosphoserine 10 of histone H3, which indicated that the cells were in M-phase, apoptosis is subsequently induced. Low nanomolar concentration of BI6727 showed inhibitory activity on neuroblastoma (NB) tumor-initiating cells (NB TIC), with EC 50 of 21 nM, only micromolar concentrations of BI6727 have toxic effects on normal pediatric neural stem cells. Similar to BI2536,BI6727 induced growth arrest of Daoy and ONS-76 medulloblastoma cells. |
In vivo study | BI6727 significantly inhibits the growth of multiple human tumor xenografts, including HCT116, NCI-H460, and taxane-resistant CXB1 colon cancers, with increased mitotic index and increased apoptosis. In vivo studies have shown that BI6727 exhibits better toxicity and pharmacokinetic profiles than bi2536. |
