Preclinical characterization of SHR6390, a novel CDK 4/6 inhibitor, in vitro and in human tumor xenograft models.

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6-retinoblastoma (RB) pathway is an effective therapeutic strategy against cancer. Here, we performed a preclinical investigation of the antitumor activity of SHR6390, a novel CDK4/6 inhibitor. SHR6390 exhibited potent antiproliferative activity against a wide range of human RB-positive tumor cells in vitro, and exclusively induced G₁ arrest as well as cellular senescence, with a concomitant reduction in the levels of Ser780-phosphorylated RB protein. Compared with the well-known CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib, orally administered SHR6390 led to equivalent or improved tumor efficacy against a panel of carcinoma xenografts, and produced marked tumor regression in some models, in association with sustained target inhibition in tumor tissues. Furthermore, SHR6390 overcame resistance to endocrine therapy and HER2-targeting antibody in ER-positive and HER2-positive breast cancer, respectively. Moreover, SHR6390 combined with endocrine therapy exerted remarkable synergistic antitumor activity in ER-positive breast cancer. Taken together, our findings indicate that SHR6390 is a novel CDK4/6 inhibitor with favorable pharmaceutical properties for use as an anticancer agent.

Project description:PurposeInhibition of the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6-retinoblastoma (RB) pathway exerts a considerable inhibitory effect, preventing the spread and metastasis of breast cancer cells and promoting tumor regression. In this study, we examined the antitumor activity of TQB3616, a novel inhibitor of CDK4/6 activity, which showed a greater efficacy improvement in antitumor effects.MethodsTQB3616 group, abemaciclib group and endocrine or HER-2 targeted combination therapy group were set up respectively. The effects of drugs on cell proliferation activity, cell cycle, apoptosis, downstream protein expression and gene expression of HR positive (T47D, MCF-7) and HER-2 positive (BT474, MDA-MB-361) breast cancer cell lines were studied. The antiproliferative effect of TQB3616 was also measured in vivo.ResultsTQB3616 showed a remarkable inhibitory effect on the proliferation of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer cells in vitro. In addition, TQB3616 combined with endocrine therapy or Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) targeted therapy showed significant synergistic antitumor activity in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive/HER2-negative or HER2-positive breast cancer. In contrast to abemaciclib, which targets the CDK4/6 pathway with proven efficacy, the oral agent TQB3616 not only induced G1 stalling, leading to a profound reduction in the level of RB protein phosphorylated at Ser807/811, but also showed enhanced tumor killing effects by promoting cell apoptosis. Oral administration of TQB3616 showed more potent antitumor activity than abemaciclib in an in vitro breast cancer xenograft model, causing significant tumor regression associated with sustained target inhibition in tumor tissue and manageable in vivo toxicity.ConclusionThe results of this study indicate that TQB3616 is a novel CDK4/6 inhibitor, and its highly effective antitumor activity against breast cancer is expected to yield promising therapeutic effects in clinical studies.
