Product Description

Defactinib HCl (formerly known as VS-6063 HCl, PF-04554878 HCl) is a novel, potent, selective, and orally bioactive small molecule inhibitor of the FAK (focal adhesion kinase), it inhibits the phosphorylation of FAK at the Tyr397 site in a time- and dose-dependent manner. FAK is an essential component of numerous oncogenic pathways and is a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase. It has been documented that several tumor types, such as ovarian, colon, and breast cancers, have elevated FAK expression. Defactinib may therefore have antitumor effects because it inhibits FAK. Tumor cell migration, proliferation, and survival may be inhibited by defactinib's inhibition of FAK, which also inhibits integrin-mediated activation of multiple downstream signal transduction pathways, such as ERK, JNK/MAPK, and PI3K/Akt.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
FAK
ln Vitro

Defactinib (VS-6063) inhibits FAK phosphorylation at the Tyr397 site in a time- and dose-dependent manner. AKT and YB-1 levels in taxane-resistant cell lines are decreased by defactinib, according to RPPA data. The dose-dependent inhibition of pFAK (Tyr397) expression in all cell lines is statistically significant when Defactinib is used. pFAK (Tyr397) expression is inhibited by defactinib for three hours, and by 48 hours, expression gradually returns[1].

ln Vivo
At three hours, defactinib (VS-6063) doses of 25 mg/kg twice a day or higher statistically significantly inhibit pFAK (Tyr397); by the 24-hour mark, expression has returned. Consequently, the dosage regimen for the next round of therapeutic trials will be Defactinib administered at a rate of 25 mg/kg twice day. Female naked mice with peritoneal HeyA8 tumors are randomly assigned to 4 groups (n = 10 per group) for the purpose of therapy experiments. 1) weekly PTX intraperitoneal injection; 2) twice-daily oral administration of vehicle; 3) twice-daily oral administration of phosphate-buffered saline (control); 4) simultaneous administration of VDefactinib 25 mg/kg and PTX intraperitoneally weekly. In the HeyA8 model, PTX monotherapy reduced tumor weight by 87.4%; combination therapy produced the largest reduction in tumor weight, at 97.9% (P=0.05 compared with PTX). When comparing the combination group to PTX, there is a 92.7% tumor weight reduction in the SKOV3ip1 model (P<0.001)[1].
Enzyme Assay
In a manner that was dependent on both time and dosage, defactinib prevented FAK phosphorylation at the Tyr397 site. Defactinib and paclitaxel together significantly reduced proliferation and enhanced apoptosis, leading to tumor weight reductions of 92.7% to 97.9%. Data from RPPA indicated that in taxane-resistant cell lines, defactinib lowered AKT and YB-1 levels. In taxane-resistant cells, FAK inhibition improved chemosensitivity through a mechanism that was dependent on AKT and reduced YB-1 phosphorylation and, consequently, CD44. Increased nuclear YB-1 expression (χ²) = 37.7; P <.001) was correlated with nuclear FAK expression in human ovarian cancer samples. A statistically significant worse median overall survival (24.9 vs 67.3 months; hazard ratio = 2.64; 95% confidence interval = 1.38 to 5.05; P =.006) was linked to the coexpression of nuclear FAK and YB-1.
Cell Assay
The MTT assay is performed after 96 hours of treatment with increasing concentrations of defactinib for ovarian cancer cells. Experiments carried out in triplicate validate the results.
Animal Protocol
Mice: The antitumor effects of defactinib are assessed by intraperitoneal injection of SKOV3ip1, SKOV3-TR, HeyA8, and HeyA8-MDR cells. Mice are randomized into four groups of ten (control, PTX alone, Defactinib alone, and PTX plus Defactinib) one week after the tumor cell injection. Three to four weeks later, treatment is started. Weekly intraperitoneal injections of PTX (2 mg/kg for SKOV3ip1 and SKOV3-TR) or 2.5 mg/kg for HeyA8 and HeyA8-MDR) are administered; twice-daily oral administration of defactinib (25 mg/kg) is recommended. HBSS was administered intraperitoneally once a week to control mice, while vehicle was given twice daily. Day 35 (SKOV3ip1 or SKOV3-TR), Day 28 (HeyA8 or HeyA8-MDR), or when any mouse appears moribund are the dates at which the mice are killed after being observed every day for side effects of the therapy. The total weight of the body, the mass and incidence of the tumor, and the quantity of tumor nodules are noted. The three methods used to treat tumors are formalin fixation, paraffin embedding, and snap freezing in a liquid nitrogen-based optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound.

Additional Infomation
Defactinib Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of defactinib, an orally bioavailable, small-molecule focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor with potential antiangiogenic and antineoplastic activities. Defactinib inhibits FAK, which may prevent the integrin-mediated activation of several downstream signal transduction pathways, including those involving RAS/MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt, thus inhibiting tumor cell migration, proliferation, survival, and tumor angiogenesis. The tyrosine kinase FAK, a signal transducer for integrins, is normally activated by binding to integrins in the extracellular matrix (ECM) but may be upregulated and constitutively activated in various tumor cell types.
These protocols are for reference only. InvivoChem does not independently validate these methods.
