Bioactivity | Pictilisib dimethanesulfonate (GDC-0941 dimethanesulfonate) is a potent inhibitor of PI3Kα/δ with IC50 of 3 nM, with modest selectivity against p110β (11-fold) and p110γ (25-fold). |
Invitro | Pictilisib (GDC-0941) and RP-56976 reduce tumor cell viability by 80% or greater in the breast cancer cell lines than single-agent treatment. GDC-0941 inhibits Akt phosphorylation and downstream targets of Akt signaling such as pPRAS40 and pS6 in Hs578T1.2 (PI3Kα wild-type), MCF7-neo/HER2 (PI3Kα-mutant), and MX-1 (PTEN-null) tumor models. Pictilisib (GDC-0941) decreases the time of RP-56976-induced mitotic arrest prior to apoptosis[1]. Pictilisib (GDC-0941) shows a high efficacy of antitumor activity in two ZD1839-resistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines, A549 and H460. Pictilisib (GDC-0941) is highly efficacious in combination with U0126 in inducing cell growth inhibition, G0-G1 arrest and cell apoptosis. H460 cells with activating mutations of PIK3CA are relatively more sensitive to Pictilisib (GDC-0941) than A549 cells with wild-type PIK3CA[3]. Pictilisib (GDC-0941) reduces PI3K pathway activity in both cell lines, illustrated by decreased pAK. Pictilisib (GDC-0941) significantly reduces secreted VEGF detected in the medium after hypoxic/anoxic exposure in all cells[4]. |
