RO5068760 is a potent, orally active and selective non-ATP-competitive MEK1/2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.025 μM for MEK1. RO5068760 significantly inhibits MAPK pathway activity, thereby inducing G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis to inhibit cancer cell growth. RO5068760 exhibits significant efficacy in a broad spectrum of tumors with aberrant MAPK pathway activation. RO5068760 can be used for melanoma, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and pancreatic cancer research.

RO5068760 exhibits significant efficacy in a broad spectrum of tumors with aberrant MAPK pathway activation. RO5068760 can be used for melanoma, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and pancreatic cancer research[1].

In Vitro

RO5068760 significantly inhibits MAPK pathway activity as evidenced by the dose-dependent inhibition of both ERK and MEK phosphorylation (p-ERK and p-MEK) in many human cancer cell lines, such as LOX, HT-29, H460, and MIA PaCa-2 cells[1].
RO5068760 specifically inhibits cell growth in cancer cell lines with activating pathway gene mutations (B-Raf or KRas), and the representative IC50/IC90 values are 0.018/0.72 μM in LOX (B-RafV600E), 0.11/0.56 μM in HT-29 (B-RafV600E), 0.30/3.08 μM in H460 (KRasG12C), and 1.25/5.11 μM in MIA PaCa-2 (KRasQ61K) cancer cells[1].
RO5068760 (0-10 μM, 24 h) downregulates CDK4/cyclin D1 and upregulates p27 and cleaved PARP in responsive cancer cells (HT-29 and LOX), indicating that it induces G1 cell cycle arrest and subsequently leads to apoptosis[1].

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: HT-29 and LOX cells
Concentration: 0, 2, and 10 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Decreased CDK4 and cyclin D1 levels in a dose dependent manner.
Increased p27 and cleaved PARP levels in HT-29 and LOX cells.
In Vivo

RO5068760 (6.25-500 mg/kg, p.o., b.i.d. or q.d. or weekly for approximately 3 to 4 weeks) exhibits dose-dependent antitumor activity in corresponding human tumor xenograft models in mice with aberrant MAPK pathway activation[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Female nude mice subcutaneously implanted with human cancer cells (LOX and HT-29 (both B-Raf V600E mutant), MIA PaCa-2 (KRAS G12C mutation) and H460 (KRAS Q61H mutation))[1]
Dosage: 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 500 mg/kg
Administration: p.o., b.i.d. or q.d. or weekly for approximately 3 to 4 weeks
Result: Showed significant tumor growth inhibition (TGI > 65%) in all models when administered once or twice daily.
Exhibited partial (PR) or complete regression (CR) at doses as low as 12.5 mg/kg (b.i.d.) in the LOX melanoma model harboring B-RafV600E mutation.
Resulted in PR or CR in four of four tumor models tested at a dose of 100 mg/kg twice daily.
Exhibited antitumor activity in the LOX melanoma model even at 500 mg/kg once weekly with three PRs and five CRs compared with vehicle controls.
In K-Ras mutant tumors, twice-daily dosing yielded better efficacy than once-daily or weekly regimens at equivalent total doses.
Showed superior in vivo efficacy in B-RafV600E xenografts (LOX and HT-29) compared with K-Ras mutant xenografts (H460 and MIA PaCa-2).
In the MIA PaCa-2 and H460 xenograft models, Cmax levels in plasma reached or exceeded the EC90 of p-ERK suppression, whereas in the LOX and HT-29 models, maximal plasma levels required for a similar degree of efficacy were significantly lower.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
