Bioactivity | Trametinib (DMSO solvate) (GSK-1120212 (DMSO solvate);JTP-74057 (DMSO solvate)) is an orally active MEK inhibitor that inhibits MEK1 and MEK2 with IC50s of about 2 nM. Trametinib (DMSO solvate) activates autophagy and induces apoptosis[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | In BRAF mutant SK-MEL-28 cells and KRAS mutant HCT116 cells, Trametinib (GSK1120212;JTP-74057) DMSO solvate causes dose-dependent inhibition of ERK1/2 phosphorylation as well as dose-dependent growth inhibition. In both SK-MEL-28 and HCT116 cells, Trametinib DMSO solvate inhibits 50% p-ERK1/2 at nearly equivalent concentrations (0.8 and 1.8 nM, respectively). However, as the slopes of the curves reflect, in SK-MEL-28 cells, Trametinib DMSO solvate inhibits 90% p-ERK1/2 at a lower concentration (3.4 nM) than in HCT116 (33.3 nM). Furthermore, in both cell lines, 50% growth inhibition is only achieved at concentrations Trametinib DMSO solvate that produces near complete ERK1/2 inhibition (85 and 90%, respectively)[2]. | ||||||||||||
