PHA-665752S1070

PHA-665752 significantly inhibits c-Met kinase activity with K_i of 4 nM, and exhibits >50-fold selectivity for c-Met compared with various tyrosine and serine-threonine kinases. PHA-665752 potently inhibits the HGF-stimulated c-Met autophosphorylation with IC50 of 25-50 nM. PHA-665752 also significantly blocks HGF- and c-Met-dependent functions such as cell motility and cell proliferation with IC50 of 40-50 nM and 18-42 nM, respectively. In addition, PHA-665752 potently inhibits HGF-stimulated or constitutive phosphorylation of mediators of downstream of c-Met such as Gab-1, ERK, Akt, STAT3, PLC-γ, and FAK in multiple tumor cell lines. ^[1] PHA-665752 inhibits cell growth in TPR-MET-transformed BaF3 cells with IC50 of <60 nM, and inhibits constitutive cell motility and migration by 92.5% at 0.2 μM. Inhibition of c-Met by PHA665752 (0.2 μM) also induces cell apoptosis of 33.1% and G1 cell cycle arrest with cells in G1 phase increasing from 42.4% to 77.0%. PHA665752 can cooperate with rapamycin to inhibit cell growth of TPR-MET-transformed BaF3 cells and non-small cell lung cancer H441 cells. ^[2]
