PF-3084014

PF-3084014 is a novel gamma-secretase inhibitor that reduces amyloid-beta (Abeta) production with an in vitro IC(50) of 1.2 nM (whole-cell assay) to 6.2 nM (cell-free assay).
in vitro: The ability of PF-03084014 to inhibit gamma-secretase activity was shown by the reduction of endogenous NICD levels and by the downregulation of Notch target genes Hes-1 and c-Myc in the T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cell line HPB-ALL. PF-03084014 caused cell growth inhibition of several T-ALL cell lines via cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis [1]. PF-03084014 exhibited activity against tumor cell migration, endothelial cell tube formation, and mammosphere formation [3].
in vivo: Guinea pigs were dosed with PF-3084014 for 5 days via osmotic minipump at 0.03 to 3 mg/kg/day and exhibited dose-dependent reduction in brain, CSF, and plasma Abeta. To further characterize Abeta dynamics in brain, CSF, and plasma in relation to drug exposure and Notch-related toxicities, guinea pigs were dosed with 0.03 to 10 mg/kg PF-3084014, and tissues were collected at regular intervals from 0.75 to 30 h after dose. Brain, CSF, and plasma all exhibited dose-dependent reductions in Abeta, and the magnitude and duration of Abeta lowering exceeded those of the reductions in B-cell endpoints [2]. PF-03084014 treatment displayed significant antitumor activity in 10 of the 18 breast xenograft models. However, the antitumor efficacy in most models did not correlate with the in vitro antiproliferation results in the corresponding cell lines, suggesting the critical involvement of tumor microenvironment during Notch activation. In the tested breast xenograft models, the baseline expressions of the Notch receptors, ligands, and the cleaved Notch1 failed to predict the antitumor response to PF-03084014, whereas several Notch pathway target genes, including HEY2, HES4, and HES3, strongly corresponded with the response with a P value less than 0.01. Many of the best molecular predictors of response were also significantly modulated following PF-03084014 treatment  you can buy it from medchemexpress.
