S55746 (formerly known as S-055746 and BCL201) is a novel, potent, selective and orally bioactive BCL-2 inhibitor with Ki of 1.3 nM. The hydrophobic groove of BCL-2 is occupied by S55746. Its selectivity profile shows that it has a weak affinity for BCL-XL and no significant binding to MCL-1 or BFL-1 (BCL2A1/A1). As a result, BCL-XL-dependent cells like platelets are not cytotoxically affected by S55746. S55746 causes a panel of hematological cell lines to externalize phosphatidylserine, activate caspase-3, and cleave PARP, which are all signs of apoptosis. In primary patient samples of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and mantle cell lymphoma, S55746 induces apoptosis in the low nanomolar range. Finally, S55746 demonstrated strong anti-tumor efficacy in two hematological xenograft models when it was given orally to mice daily, with no weight loss and no behavioral changes. These findings show that S55746 is a potent, novel, and well-tolerated BH3-mimetic that targets the BCL-2 protein.

| ln Vitro | S55746 is located in BCL-2's hydrophobic groove. S55746 causes the externalization of phosphatidylserine, caspase-3 activation, and PARP cleavage in a panel of hematological cell lines, which are signs of apoptosis. S55746 exhibits much weaker activity in H146 (IC50 = 1.7 μM), a BCL-XL-dependent cell line, which expresses high levels of BCL-XL and low levels of BCL-2. S55746 potently induces RS4;11 cell killing after 72 hours of treatment with an IC50 of 71.6 nM. On BCL-XL-dependent cells, like platelets, it has no cytotoxic activity[1]. |
| ln Vivo | S55746 exhibits strong anti-tumor efficacy in two hematological xenograft models (RS4;11 and Toledo models) when given orally daily to mice, with no weight loss and no behavioral changes[1]. |
| Cell Assay | Apoptosis induction in RS4;11 cells subjected to a 2-hour treatment with S55746 at various concentrations. PI and annexin V-FITC labeled cells were examined using flow cytometry. |

| Additional Infomation | Bcl-2 Inhibitor BCL201 is a selective inhibitor of the anti-apoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), with potential pro-apoptotic and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, Bcl-2 inhibitor BCL201 binds to and inhibits the activity of Bcl-2. This restores apoptotic processes in tumor cells. Bcl-2 protein is overexpressed in many cancers and plays an important role in the negative regulation of apoptosis; its expression is associated with increased drug resistance and tumor cell survival. |
