Abstract:
JNJ-38877605 is a potent and selective Met receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has substantial pre-clinical antitumor activity. We recently described JNJ-38877605 as an ATP-competitive, inhibitor of the catalytic activity of Met kinase (IC50 4 nM) with a unique binding mode that leads to selectivity, exhibiting a 600-fold selectivity (vs cFMS IC50 2.6μM; the next potently inhibited kinase) for Met compared with a panel of 250 diverse tyrosine and serine-threonine kinases. Previously, JNJ-38877605 was shown to inhibit Met phosphorylation in tumor xenografts up to 16 h following a single oral dose, and that inhibition of receptor phosphorylation was associated with dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition. Herein we describe the activity of JNJ-38877605, on a broader range of preclinical solid tumor xenograft models, at doses below MTD and with different schedules of administration. In addition, we now also show data with primary patient-tumor derived xenografts where we have dosed JNJ-39977605 at the MTD using gastric, colorectal and liver metastatic (derived from primary CRC) samples. JNJ-38877605 was observed to induce significant tumor regression in large well established MET gene amplified gastric cancer models and in Met pathway activated (autocrine or paracrine) models. Significant growth inhibition was achieved when dosing JNJ-38877605 at MTD (and lower doses) with T/C & lt; 42% in tumors of MKN-45, GTL-16, SNU-5 and Kato II met gene amplified models. Significant inhibition was also observed in K-ras mt (dependent) NCI-H441 NSCLC xenografts. Regression of U87 MG PTEN negative glioblastoma tumors (autocrine loop), grown either as subcutaneous or orthotopic models was also observed. Using primary patient derived xenograft models, we have shown that differential expression of the c-Met/HGF axis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene markers between primary colorectal carcinomas and liver metastases in primary tissue, play a role in the activity of this compound in vivo. The strong preclinical properties of the JNJ-38877605 compound has resulted in the selection of this potent and uniquely selective Met inhibitor for clinical evaluation. JNJ-38877605 is currently in Phase I clinical trials. Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].
