Pharmacokinetics and efficacy of the spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor r406 after ocular delivery for retinoblastoma.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Retinoblastoma is a childhood cancer of the retina. Clinical trials have shown that local delivery of broad spectrum chemotherapeutic agents is efficacious. Recent studies characterizing the genomic and epigenomic landscape of retinoblastoma identified spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) as a promising candidate for targeted therapy. The purpose of this study was to conduct preclinical testing of the SYK antagonist R406 to evaluate it as a candidate for retinoblastoma treatment.

Methods

The efficacy of the SYK antagonist R406 delivered locally in a human orthotopic xenograft mouse model of retinoblastoma was tested. Intraocular exposure of R406 was determined for various routes and formulations.

Results

There was no evidence of efficacy for subconjunctival. R406. Maximal vitreal concentration was 10-fold lower than the minimal concentration required to kill retinoblastoma cells in vitro. Dosage of R406 subconjunctivally from emulsion or suspension formulations, direct intravitreal injection of the soluble prodrug of R406 (R788), and repeated topical administration of R406 all increased vitreal exposure, but failed to reach the exposure required for retinoblastoma cell death in culture.

Conclusion

Taken together, these data suggest that R406 is not a viable clinical candidate for the treatment of retinoblastoma. This study highlights the importance of pharmacokinetic testing of molecular targeted retinoblastoma therapeutics.

B-cell antigen receptor signaling enhances chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell migration and survival: specific targeting with a novel spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor, R406.

Project description:Antigenic stimulation through the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) is considered to promote the expansion of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B cells. The spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), a key component of BCR signaling, can be blocked by R406, a small-molecule Syk inhibitor, that displayed activity in CLL patients in a first clinical trial. In this study, we investigated the effects of BCR stimulation and R406 on CLL cell survival and migration. The prosurvival effects promoted by anti-IgM stimulation and nurselike cells were abrogated by R406. BCR triggering up-regulated adhesion molecules, and increased CLL cell migration toward the chemokines CXCL12 and CXCL13. BCR activation also enhanced CLL cell migration beneath marrow stromal cells. These responses were blocked by R406, which furthermore abrogated BCR-dependent secretion of T-cell chemokines (CCL3 and CCL4) by CLL cells. Finally, R406 inhibited constitutive and BCR-induced activation of Syk, extracellular signal-regulated kinases, and AKT, and blocked BCR-induced calcium mobilization. These findings suggest that BCR activation favors CLL cell homing, retention, and survival in tissue microenvironments. R406 effectively blocks these BCR-dependent responses in CLL cells, providing an explanation for the activity of R406 in patients with CLL.

A spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor reduces the severity of established glomerulonephritis.

Project description:Antibody-mediated glomerulonephritis, including that resulting from immune complexes, is an important cause of renal failure and is in need of more specific and effective treatment. Binding of antibody or immune complexes to Fc receptors activates intracellular signal transduction pathways, including spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), leading to the production of inflammatory cytokines. We examined the effect of R788 (fostamatinib disodium), an oral prodrug of the selective Syk inhibitor R406, in nephrotoxic nephritis in Wistar-Kyoto rats. Treatment with R788 reduced proteinuria, tissue injury, glomerular macrophage and CD8+ cell numbers, and renal monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and IL-1beta, even when we started treatment after the onset of glomerulonephritis. When we administered R788 from days 4 to 10, glomerular crescents reduced by 100% (P < 0.01) compared with the vehicle group. When we administered R788 treatment from days 7 to 14, established glomerular crescents reversed (reduced by 21%, P < 0.001), and renal function was better than the vehicle group (P < 0.001). In vitro, R406 downregulated MCP-1 production from mesangial cells and macrophages stimulated with aggregated IgG. These results suggest that Syk is an important therapeutic target for the treatment of glomerulonephritis.

Biophysical and mechanistic insights into novel allosteric inhibitor of spleen tyrosine kinase.

Project description:Extracellular stimulation of the B cell receptor or mast cell Fc?RI receptor activates a cascade of protein kinases, ultimately leading to antigenic or inflammation immune responses, respectively. Syk is a soluble kinase responsible for transmission of the receptor activation signal from the membrane to cytosolic targets. Control of Syk function is, therefore, critical to the human antigenic and inflammation immune response, and an inhibitor of Syk could provide therapy for autoimmune or inflammation diseases. We report here a novel allosteric Syk inhibitor, X1, that is noncompetitive against ATP (K(i) 4 ± 1 ?M) and substrate peptide (K(i) 5 ± 1 ?M), and competitive against activation of Syk by its upstream regulatory kinase LynB (K(i) 4 ± 1 ?M). The inhibition mechanism was interrogated using a combination of structural, biophysical, and kinetic methods, which suggest the compound inhibits Syk by reinforcing the natural regulatory interactions between the SH2 and kinase domains. This novel mode of inhibition provides a new opportunity to improve the selectivity profile of Syk inhibitors for the development of safer drug candidates.

A Novel Triazolopyridine-Based Spleen Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor That Arrests Joint Inflammation.

Project description:Autoantibodies and the immunoreceptors to which they bind can contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (Syk) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase with a central role in immunoreceptor (FcR) signaling and immune cell functionality. Syk kinase inhibitors have activity in antibody-dependent immune cell activation assays, in preclinical models of arthritis, and have progressed into clinical trials for RA and other autoimmune diseases. Here we describe the characterization of a novel triazolopyridine-based Syk kinase inhibitor, CC-509. This compound is a potent inhibitor of purified Syk enzyme, FcR-dependent and FcR-independent signaling in primary immune cells, and basophil activation in human whole blood. CC-509 is moderately selective across the kinome and against other non-kinase enzymes or receptors. Importantly, CC-509 was optimized away from and has modest activity against cellular KDR and Jak2, kinases that when inhibited in a preclinical and clinical setting may promote hypertension and neutropenia, respectively. In addition, CC-509 is orally bioavailable and displays dose-dependent efficacy in two rodent models of immune-inflammatory disease. In passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA), CC-509 significantly inhibited skin edema. Moreover, CC-509 significantly reduced paw swelling and the tissue levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines RANTES and MIP-1α in the collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model. In summary, CC-509 is a potent, moderately selective, and efficacious inhibitor of Syk that has a differentiated profile when compared to other Syk compounds that have progressed into the clinic for RA.

Targeting spleen tyrosine kinase-Bruton's tyrosine kinase axis for immunologically mediated glomerulonephritis.

Project description:The importance of B-cell activation and immune complex-mediated Fc-receptor activation in the pathogenesis of immunologically mediated glomerulonephritis has long been recognized. The two nonreceptor tyrosine kinases, spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), are primarily expressed by hematopoietic cells, and participate in B-cell-receptor- and Fc-receptor-mediated activation. Pharmacological inhibitors of Syk or Btk are undergoing preclinical development and clinical trials for several immune diseases; and Syk inhibitors have been shown to reduce disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis patients. However, the clinical therapeutic efficacies of these inhibitors in glomerulonephritis have not been evaluated. Herein, we review recent studies of Syk and Btk inhibitors in several experimental primary and secondary glomerulonephritis models. These inhibitors suppressed development of glomerular injury, and also ameliorated established kidney disease. Thus, targeting Syk and Btk signaling pathways is a potential therapeutic strategy for glomerulonephritis, and further evaluation is recommended.

Discovery of Lanraplenib (GS-9876): A Once-Daily Spleen Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor for Autoimmune Diseases.

Project description:Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) is a critical regulator of signaling in a variety of immune cell types such as B-cells, monocytes, and macrophages. Accordingly, there have been numerous efforts to identify compounds that selectively inhibit SYK as a means to treat autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. We previously disclosed GS-9973 (entospletinib) as a selective SYK inhibitor that is under clinical evaluation in hematological malignancies. However, a BID dosing regimen and drug interaction with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) prevented development of entospletinib in inflammatory diseases. Herein, we report the discovery of a second-generation SYK inhibitor, GS-9876 (lanraplenib), which has human pharmacokinetic properties suitable for once-daily administration and is devoid of any interactions with PPI. Lanraplenib is currently under clinical evaluation in multiple autoimmune indications.

CCL4-mediated targeting of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) inhibitor using nanoparticles alleviates inflammatory bowel disease.

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has emerged a global disease and the ascending incidence and prevalence is accompanied by elevated morbidity, mortality, and substantial healthcare system costs. However, the current typical one-size-fits-all therapeutic approach is suboptimal for a substantial proportion of patients due to the variability in the course of IBD and a considerable number of patients do not have positive response to the clinically approved drugs, so there is still a great, unmet demand for novel alternative therapeutic approaches. Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), a cytoplasmic nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase, plays crucial roles in signal transduction and there are emerging data implicating that Syk participates in pathogenesis of several gut disorders, such as IBD. In this study, we observed the Syk expression in IBD patients and explored the effects of therapeutic Syk inhibition using small-molecule Syk inhibitor piceatannol in bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). In addition, due to the poor bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors and superiority of targeting nanoparticles-based drug delivery system, we herein prepared piceatannol-encapsulated poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles that conjugated with chemokine C-C motif ligand 4 (P-NPs-C) and studied its therapeutic effects in vitro in BMDMs and in vivo in experimental colitis model. Our results indicated that in addition to alleviating colitis, oral administration of P-NPs-C promoted the restoration of intestinal barrier function and improved intestinal microflora dysbiosis, which represents a promising treatment for IBD.

GSK2646264, a spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor, attenuates the release of histamine in ex vivo human skin.

Project description:Background and purposeChronic spontaneous urticaria presents as a heterogeneous syndrome characterised by wheals, angioedema, or both for greater than 6 weeks. Spleen tyrosine kinase mediates allergen-induced mast cell degranulation via the IgE signalling pathway, a central component of wheal formation and inflammation. In this study, we investigated the effects of perfused or topically administered GSK2646264 on IgE-mediated histamine release from mast cells in an ex vivo human skin model.Experimental approachUsing a novel SkiP device, ex vivo human skin from mastectomy surgeries was challenged with anti-IgE, complement 5a (C5a), and buffer to induce histamine release from skin mast cells. Histamine was collected via microdialysis fibres and measured fluorometrically. GSK2646264 was delivered via perfusion either using microdialysis fibres or topically in a cream. Drug concentrations in the skin were measured by LC-MS, and a pharmacokinetic/ pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship developed.Key resultsPerfused GSK2646264 significantly inhibited anti-IgE (but not C5a)-induced histamine release in a concentration-dependent manner. The 0.5, 1, and 3% cream delivered GSK2646264 to the dermis above the IC90 and dose-dependently attenuated anti-IgE-induced histamine release.Conclusions and implicationsGSK2646264 administered topically or direct to the dermis blocked histamine release from in situ skin mast cells. A PK/PD relationship curve suggests that dermal concentrations above 6.8 μM should lead to approximately 90% inhibition of histamine release from skin mast cells following activation of the Fc fragment of IgE receptor 1a, implicating a potential use for the compound in skin mast cell diseases such as urticaria.
