GSK1795091 (CRX-601; GSK-1795091) is a novel and potent Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist with antitumor activity. TLR4 is a member of the TLR family tha plays a key role in the activation of innate immunity against pathogens. As an immunologic stimulator, it can be used as a vaccine adjuvant to enhance both mucosal and systemic immunity to influenza virus vaccines. GSK1795091 is being studies in clinical trials for the treatment of cancer. GSK1795091 binds to and activates TLR4, thereby stimulating dendritic cells (DCs), monocytes and macrophages. This activation results in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interferon gamma (IFN-g), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) and the interleukins (IL), IL-1 beta, -6 and -12. This may induce a T helper cell-1 (Th1) immune response and, upon co-administration of a vaccine containing tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), activates a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against tumor cells expressing those TAAs.

Biological Activity
| ln Vivo | In order to elicit significant mucosal and systemic immune responses, GSK1795091 (CRX-601), an intranasal medication at 0.1 μg/mouse, is employed as an adjuvant in conjunction with vaccine effectiveness (H3N2) induction [1]. In mouse tumor models, GSK1795091 (25 μg/mouse; intravenously; each; once weekly for three times) slows growth and results in long-term tumors [3]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Female balb/c (Bagg ALBino) mouse primed with H3N2 [1] Doses: 0.1 μg/mouse Route of Administration: Intranasal administration Experimental Results: As an adjuvant combined with detergent cleaved influenza antigen (H3N2), it can produce Robust local and systemic immunity against co-administered influenza antigens, while demonstrating high efficacy against two heterotypic influenza challenges. Mice receiving the adjuvanted vaccine had Dramatically higher IgA titers than unadjuvanted (vehicle) controls in an adjuvant dose-dependent manner. Adjuvanted vaccines promote antigen-specific IgG and IgA antibody responses and the generation of multifunctional antigen-specific Th17 cells. |

| Additional Infomation | TLR4 Agonist GSK1795091 is a toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist, with potential immunoadjuvant activity. Upon administration, GSK1795091 binds to and activates TLR4, thereby stimulating dendritic cells (DCs), monocytes and macrophages. This activation results in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interferon gamma (IFN-g), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) and the interleukins (IL), IL-1 beta, -6 and -12. This may induce a T helper cell-1 (Th1) immune response and, upon co-administration of a vaccine containing tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), activates a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against tumor cells expressing those TAAs. TLR4, a member of the TLR family, plays a key role in the activation of innate immunity. |
