| Bioactivity | Orantinib (SU6668; TSU-68) is a multi-targeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor with Kis of 2.1 μM, 8 nM and 1.2 μM for Flt-1, PDGFRβ and FGFR1, respectively. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Orantinib (SU6668; 0.03-10 μM) shows inhibitory activity against tyrosine phosphorylation of KDR in VEGF stimulated HUVECs, and also blocks PDGF-stimulated PDGFRβ tyrosine phosphorylation in NIH-3T3 cells overexpressing PDGFRβ. Orantinib (≥10 μM) inhibits acidic FGF-induced phosphorylation of the FGFR1 substrate 2. However, Orantinib (up to 100 μM) has no effect on EGF-stimulated EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation in NIH-3T3 cells overexpressing EGFR. Furthermore, Orantinib inhibits VEGF-driven and FGF-driven mitogenesis of HUVECs with mean IC50 of 0.34 μM and 9.6 μM, respectively[1]. In human myeloid leukemia MO7E cells, Orantinib (SU6668) inhibits the tyrosine autophosphorylation of stem cell factor (SCF) receptor, c-kit, with IC50 of 0.1-1 μM, as well as ERK1/2 phosphorylation. In addition, Orantinib suppresses SCF-induced proliferation of MO7E cells with an IC50 of 0.29 μM, and induces apoptosis[2]. | ||||||||||||
| In Vivo | Orantinib (SU6668; 75-200 mg/kg) causes tumor growth inhibition on several tumor types in xenograft models in athymic mice, such as A375, Colo205, H460, Calu-6, C6, SF763T, and SKOV3TP5 cells. Orantinib (75 mg/kg) also inhibits tumor angiogenesis of C6 glioma xenografts[1]. In a tumor model of HT29 human colon carcinoma, Orantinib (200 mg/kg) decreases the average vessel permeability and average fractional plasma volume in the tumor rim and core. Orantinib enhances abnormal stromal development at the periphery of carcinomas[3]. Moreover, Orantinib (TSU-68; 200 mg/kg) augments the effect of chemotherapeutic infusion in a rabbit VX2 liver tumor model[4]. | ||||||||||||
