Bioactivity | Ganetespib (STA-9090) is a heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitor which exhibits potent cytotoxicity in a wide variety of hematological and solid tumor cell lines. Ganetespib has antiangiogenic effects in colorectal cancer mediated through inhibition of HIF-1α and STAT3[1][2][3][4][5][6]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Ganetespib causes depletion of receptor tyrosine kinases, extinguishing of downstream signaling, inhibition of proliferation and induction of apoptosis with IC50 values ranging 2-30 nM in genomically-defined NSCLC cell lines. Ganetespib is also approximately 20-fold more potent in isogenic Ba/F3 pro-B cells rendered IL-3 independent by expression of EGFR and ERBB2 mutants[1]. Ganetespib exhibits potent in vitro cytotoxicity in a range of solid and hematologic tumor cell lines, induces the degradation of known Hsp90 client proteins, displays superior potency to the ansamycin inhibitor 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG)[2]. Ganetespib is a potent HSP90 inhibitor, and shown to kill canine tumor cell lines in vitro[3]. Ganetespib possesses superior JAK/STAT inhibitory activity to both P6 and 17-AAG in terms of potency or duration of response in the HEL92.1.7 cells[4]. | ||||||||||||
