Product Description

Cobimetinib racemate is the racemic mixture of Cobimetinib (GDC-0973, RG7420; XL-518; Cotellic), which is a novel, orally bioavailable, highly potent and selective small-molecule MEK1 inhibitor with antitumor activity. With an IC50 of 4.2 nM, it inhibits MEK1. In order to treat melanoma, cobimetinib was approved in 2015 as an anti-cancer drug to be used alone, in combination with vemurafenib, or in combination with both vemurafenib and atezolizumab. Extracellular signal-related kinase 2 (ERK2) phosphorylation and activation are inhibited, and tumor cell proliferation is decreased as a result of GDC-0973's specific binding to and inhibition of the catalytic activity of MEK1.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Cobimetinib shows strong activity on cell growth inhibtion in a broad panel of tumor types, particularly in BRAF or KRAS mutant cancer cell lines. GDC-0973 causes 888MEL and A2058 cells to undergo more apoptosis, pathway inhibition, and reduced viability when combined with GDC-0941. All BRAFV600E lines have increased levels of GLUT-1 on the cellular membrane following coadministration of GDC-0973 and vemurafenib.
ln Vivo
Cobimetinib (10 mg/kg, p.o.) and GDC-0973 and GDC-0941 together exhibit improved antitumor efficacy in mice with BRAFV600E and KRAS mutant tumors. Combining GDC-0973 and GDC-0941 results in lower levels of hexokinase II, c-RAF, Ksr, and p-MEK protein in mice with drug-resistant A375 xenografts.
Enzyme Assay
Cobimetinib (GDC-0973, RG7420) is a potent, selective and oral MEK1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 4.2 nM for MEK1.
Cell Assay
For 888MEL and A2058 cells, cobimetinib (GDC-0973) has EC50 values of 0.2 M and 10 M, respectively. Treatment of melanoma cells with EC50 concentrations of MEK and PI3K inhibitors (888MEL: 0.05 μM GDC-0973, 2.5 μM GDC-0941; A2058: 2.5 μM GDC-0973, 2.5 μM GDC-0941) lasts for 24 hours. In melanoma with constitutive MAPK activation in A375 cells, mitochondrial OXPHOS regulates the amount of cell death brought on by cobimetinib (100 nM).
Animal Protocol
1, 3, or 10 mg/kg
5 million WM-266-4 melanoma cells are resuspended in Hank balanced salt solution and implanted intradermally into the hind flank of female NCR nude mice. On days 11 or 13 after the implantation, xenograft mice with tumor volumes of approximately 100 to 120 mm3 are randomLy assigned to 8 groups (n=27 per group), 4 single dose groups and 4 multiple dose groups. One day after randomization and group assignment, mice in the single dose groups are given a single oral dose of vehicle (water for injection USP), 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg of Cobimetinib (GDC-0973, expressed as free base equivalents). Mice in the multiple dose groups are given daily oral doses of vehicle (water for injection USP), 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg of GDC-0973 for 14 days. Plasma and tumor samples (n=3 per time point) are collected from euthanized mice predose and at 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 72, 120, and 168 hours postdose on day 1 (single dose groups) or day 14 (multiple dose groups). Samples are stored at 80°C until analysis. GDC-0973 concentrations in plasma and tumor lysates are determined using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS-MS). The dynamic range of the assay is 0.004 to 35 μM.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
