Volasertib trihydrochloride

Volasertib (BI 6727) trihydrochloride is an orally active, highly potent and ATP-competitive Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.87 nM. Volasertib trihydrochloride inhibits PLK2 and PLK3 with IC50s of 5 and 56 nM, respectively. Volasertib trihydrochloride induces mitotic arrest and apoptosis. Volasertib trihydrochloride, a dihydropteridinone derivative, shows marked antitumor activity in multiple cancer models.

How to use

In Vitro:

Volasertib trihydrochloride (BI 6727 trihydrochloride; 0.01-10000 nM; 72 hours) has EC50 values of 11 to 37 nmol/L in multiple cell lines. Volasertib trihydrochloride (10-1000 nM; 24 hours) results accumulation of cells with 4N DNA content, indicative of a cell cycle block in G2-M phase. Volasertib trihydrochloride (100 nM; 24-72 hours) induces cell apoptosis at 48 hours.

In Vivo:

Volasertib trihydrochloride (BI 6727 trihydrochloride; A total weekly dose of 50 mg/kg; Oral; once a week, twice a week, or daily; for 40 days) shows comparable efficacy in human colon carcinoma xenograft models. Volasertib trihydrochloride (15, 20, or 25 mg/kg/day; i.v.; 2 consecutive days per week; for 40 days) leads to significant tumor growth delay and even tumor regression in human colon carcinoma xenograft models . Volasertib trihydrochloride (70 mg/kg given once weekly or 10 mg/kg daily; oral) significantly delays tumor growth in a non-small cell lung carcinoma xenograft model derived from NCI-H460 cells. Volasertib (a single dose of 40 mg/kg; iv) causes a significant (13-fold) increase in mitotic cells in HCT 116 tumor-bearing nude mice. Volasertib has high volume of distribution and a long terminal half-life in mice (Vss=7.6 L/kg, t1/2=46 h) and rats (Vss=22 L/kg, t1/2=54 h).
