Senexin B (SNX2-1-165
BCD-115) is a potent, highly water-soluble and bioavailable CDK8/19 inhibitor, with Kds of 140 nM for CDK8 and 80 nM for CDK19.
Senexin B inhibits CDK8/19 in low nanomolar range[1]. Senexin B is a newly optimized derivative of Senexin A. It has the same high selectivity for CDK8/19 and is more potent than Senexin A. Senexin B strongly reduces the emergence of estrogen independent cells. Senexin B shows synergy with fulvestrant in MCF7, T47D-ER/Luc and BT474[2].
Pretreatment of tumor-free mice with Senexin B significantly inhibits the growth of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells inoculated into mice subsequently to Senexin B administration, indicating a general chemopreventive effect on the normal tissue "soil" . Senexin B potentiates the tumor-suppressive effect of doxorubicin on established TNBC xenografts
this effect is associated with the suppression of NFκB-mediated transcriptional induction of tumor-promoting cytokines. Senexin B inhibits invasive growth into the muscle layer in an orthotopic xenograft model of MDA-MB-468 TNBC cells. In a spleen-to-liver colon cancer metastasis model of syngeneic mouse CT26 tumors, Senexin B treatment of mice have the same effect as CDK8 knockdown in tumor cells: suppression of metastatic growth in the liver without a significant effect on primary tumor growth in the spleen[1]. Senexin B suppresses tumor growth and augmentes the effects of fulvestrant in ER-positive breast cancer xenografts[2].
Mice: Once tumors reach 100-200 mm3 volume, 4 groups of mice are treated with vehicle, Senexin B dimaleate (100 mg/kg
twice daily, oral gavage in 6.25% 2-Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, 1% Dextrose buffer) alone or in combination with fulvestrant (5 mg/mouse
s.c
once/week). Tumor volumes are measured twice weekly with calipers and volumes are calculated. After 40 days mice are euthanized, tumors are excised and weighed[2].
