Product Description
Dabrafenib (formerly known as GSK2118436; GSK-2118436; GSK-2118436A; GSK-2118436B. Trade name: Tafinlar) is a novel, specific, orally bioavailable inhibitor of BRAF V600 mutants with potential anticancer activity is available under the trade name Tafinlar. It is 4- and 6-fold less potent against B-Raf (wildype) and c-Raf, respectively, and inhibits BRAF V600 with an IC50 of 0.8 nM in cell-free assays. BRAF V600 mutants BRAFV600E, BRAFV600K, and BRAFV600D are all potently inhibited by dabrafenib, with respective IC50 values of 0.5nM, 0.6nM, and 1.9nM. The FDA has currently approved dabrafenib, which is frequently prescribed to cancer patients with BRAF mutations. According to reports, dabrafenib therapy causes patients' overall brain metastases to decrease in size. In 2013 the FDA approved dabrafenib for the treatment of melanoma.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BRafV600E (IC50 = 0.6 nM); CRAF (IC50 = 5 nM); B-Raf (IC50 = 5.2 nM)
ln Vitro
Dabrafenib has a 400-fold preference for B-Raf over 91% of the other kinases tested when it comes to Raf kinase selectivity. Dabrafenib reduces ERK phosphorylation and inhibits cell proliferation by initially arresting the cell cycle in the G1 phase in cancer cells that specifically encode the B-RafV600E mutation. [1]
ln Vivo
Dabrafenib (orally administrated) inhibits the development of B-RafV600E mutant colon cancer (Colo205) and melanoma (A375P) human tumor xenografts that are grown subcutaneously in immunodeficient mice. [1]
Cell Assay
For longer-term proliferation assays, cells are plated in 10% FBS-containing RMPI-1640 for 12 days and treated with a single compound or a combination of compounds. The assay involves at least one compound treatment replacement. Using 0.5% methylene blue in 50% ethanol, cells are stained after 12 days. Using a flatbed scanner, pictures are taken.
Animal Protocol
The 26 10-week-old, time-mated, virus-antibody-free SD (Crl:CD[SD]) female rats that were chosen as the test system gave birth to the rat pups. From Day 20 to Day 23 postpartum, mated females are monitored for spontaneous deliveries (the day parturition is complete is designated PND 0). When parturition is complete, on PNDs 3 and 6, litter examinations are carried out. These examinations include external morphologic examinations, gender determination, and individual pup weights. Clinical signs and body weights are used to select parturient dams and their litters for the study, and chosen dams and their litters are then randomly assigned to study groups based on clinical observations and PND 3 litter mean body weights. On PND 3 or 4, litters are reduced to four or five males and females, with only a small amount of fostering required to achieve the desired sex ratio. This helps to preserve natural litter sizes as much as possible. Records of the pups raised by the original and foster dams are kept. Paw tattoos are used to identify each puppy. Nonlittermates are placed in subsets to the greatest extent possible. DAB is administered to young male and female rats by oral gavage at a dose volume of 5 ml/kg, based on daily body weight, in a suspension of vehicle, 0.5% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose K15M, and 0.1% (v/v) Tween80 in purified water.

Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • 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
