Description: KW-2449 is a novel multikinase inhibitor, which suppresses the growth of leukemia cells with FLT3 mutations or T315I-mutated BCR/ABL translocation. Recent research showed that HDACIs increase KW-2449 lethality in Bcr/Abl(+) cells in association with inhibition of Bcr/Abl, generation of ROS, and induction of DNA damage. This strategy preferentially targets primary Bcr/Abl(+) hematopoietic cells and exhibits enhanced in vivo activity. Combining KW-2449 with HDACIs warrants attention in IM-resistant Bcr/Abl(+) leukemias. (source: Clin Cancer Res. 2011 May 15;17(10):3219-32. Epub 2011 Apr 7.).

More Info: KW-2449, a multikinase inhibitor of FLT3, ABL, ABL-T315I, and Aurora kinase, is under investigation to treat leukemia patients. KW-2449 showed the potent growth inhibitory effects on leukemia cells with FLT3 mutations by inhibition of the FLT3 kinase, resulting in the down-regulation of phosphorylated-FLT3/STAT5, G1 arrest, and apoptosis. Oral administration of KW-2449 showed dose-dependent and significant tumor growth inhibition in FLT3-mutated xenograft model with min. bone marrow suppression. In FLT3 wild-type human leukemia, it induced the redn. of phosphorylated histone H3, G2/M arrest, and apoptosis. In imatinib-resistant leukemia, KW-2449 contributed to release of the resistance by the simultaneous down-regulation of BCR/ABL and Aurora kinases. Furthermore, the antiproliferative activity of KW-2449 was confirmed in primary samples from AML and imatinib-resistant patients. The inhibitory activity of KW-2449 is not affected by the presence of human plasma protein, such as .alpha.1-acid glycoprotein. These results indicate KW-2449 has potent growth inhibitory activity against various types of leukemia by several mechanisms of action. KW-2449 has significant activity and warrants clin. study in leukemia patients with FLT3 mutations as well as imatinib-resistant mutations.  See: Shiotsu, Yukimasa; Kiyoi, Hitoshi; Ishikawa, Yuichi; Tanizaki, Ryohei; Shimizu, Makiko; Umehara, Hiroshi; Ishii, Kenichi; Mori, Yumiko; Ozeki, Kazutaka; Minami, Yosuke; Abe, Akihiro; Maeda, Hiroshi; Akiyama, Tadakazu; Kanda, Yutaka; Sato, Yuko; Akinaga, Shiro; Naoe, Tomoki.

Biological target: KW-2449 is a multi-targeted kinase inhibitor of FLT3, ABL, ABLT315I and Aurora kinase with IC50s of 6.6, 14, 4 and 48 nM, respectively.
In vitro activity: KW-2449 inhibited the growth of human ALL cell line RS4;11, which expresses unphosphorylated wt-FLT3, with the GI50 value of 0.23 μM (Table 2). Because KW-2449 shows potent Aurora A and Aurora B kinase inhibition, it was evaluated whether the growth inhibitory effect on RS4;11 was induced by Aurora kinase inhibition. When the cell cycle was arrested in the M-phase by nocodazole, phosphorylated histone-H3 (P-HH3) was clearly observed in RS4;11, but it was decreased by the treatment with KW-2449 in a dosedependent manner (Figure 6A). Cell cycle distribution analysis indicated that KW-2449 (0.60 μM) induced G2/M arrest and apparent increase of sub-G1 apoptotic cells after 24 hours and 48 hours of exposure, respectively (Figure 6B). Even at 0.30 μM, KW-2449 slightly decreased the population of S-phase cells from 49.0% to 40.6% after 72 hours (histogram data not shown). The increase of annexin V–positive (early apoptotic) cells was also observed at the GI50 value against RS4;11 cells (Figure 6C). These results suggested that KW-2449 has a growth inhibitory potency against leukemia cells even without activated FLT3 through the inhibition of Aurora kinase, although its potency was 5- to10-fold lower than that against those with activated FLT3 kinase.

In vivo activity: In vivo antileukemia activities of KW-2449 were evaluated using MOLM-13, FLT3-ITD AML, xenograft model. First, the concentrations of KW-2449 in both plasma and tumor after oral administration were sequentially examined in SCID mice bearing the subcutaneous MOLM-13 tumor. The tumor/plasma concentration ratio of KW-2449 tended to increase along with the time after administration and reached approximately 400, 24 hours after dosing (Figure 3A). The levels of P-FLT3 and P-STAT5 in the tumor were completely reduced from 4 to 12 hours after the administration of KW-2449 (Figure 3B). In the MOLM-13 tumor xenograft model, oral administration of KW-2449 for 14 days showed a potent and significant antitumor effect in a dose-dependent manner (Figure 4A). KW-2449 treatment at 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg twice a day showed growth inhibition of tumors with the ratio of tumor volume in the treated to control mice minimum values (T/Cmin) of 0.57 and 0.29, respectively (Figure 4B). Furthermore, KW-2449 treatment at 10 mg/kg twice a day showed tumor regression with T/Cmin of 0.010 and treatment at 20 mg/kg twice a day completely eradicated tumors in all mice (Figure 4C).
