Product Description

Abequolixron HCl (formerly RGX-104; SB-742881; SB742881), the hydrochloride salt of RGX104, is a novel potent and orally bioavailable liver-X nuclear hormone receptor-beta (LXR) agonist that modulates innate immunity via transcriptional activation of the ApoE gene. It has potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. RGX-104 selectively targets and binds to LXRbeta, thereby activating LXRbeta-mediated signaling, leading to the transcription of certain tumor suppressor genes and the downregulation of certain tumor promoter genes. This particularly activates the expression of apolipoprotein E (ApoE), a tumor suppressor protein, in tumor cells and certain immune cells. This activates the innate immune system, resulting in depletion of immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), tumor cells and endothelial cells in the tumor microenvironment. This reverses immune evasion, enhances anti-tumor immune responses and inhibits proliferation of tumor cells.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets

LXR[1]

ln Vitro
Cancer immunotherapy is restricted to immune resistance caused by immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Pyroptosis involved in antitumor immunotherapy as a new schedule is prospective to reverse immunosuppression. Herein, acidic tumor microenvironment (TME)-evoked MRC nanoparticles (MRC NPs) co-delivering immune agonist RGX-104 and photosensitizer chlorine e6 (Ce6) are reported for pyroptosis-mediated immunotherapy. RGX-104 remodels TME by transcriptional activation of ApoE to regress myeloid-derived suppressor cells' (MDSCs) activity, which neatly creates foreshadowing for intensifying pyroptosis. Considering Ce6-triggered photodynamic therapy (PDT) can strengthen oxidative stress and organelles destruction to increase immunogenicity, immunomodulatory-photodynamic MRC nanodrugs will implement an aforementioned two-pronged strategy to enhance gasdermin E (GSDME)-dependent pyroptosis. RNA-seq analysis of MRC at the cellular level is introduced to first elucidate the intimate relationship between RGX-104 acting on LXR/ApoE axis and pyroptosis, where RGX-104 provides the prerequisite for pyroptosis participating in antitumor therapy. Briefly, MRC with favorable biocompatibility tackles the obstacle of hydrophobic drugs delivery, and becomes a powerful pyroptosis inducer to reinforce immune efficacy. MRC-elicited pyroptosis in combination with anti-PD-1 blockade therapy boosts immune response in solid tumors, successfully arresting invasive metastasis and extending survival based on remarkable antitumor immunity. MRC may initiate a new window for immuno-photo pyroptosis stimulators augmenting pyroptosis-based immunotherapy.[2] Adv Healthc Mater . 2022 Nov;11(21):e2201233.
ln Vivo
When mice with visible tumors are given GW3965 or RGX-104 hydrochloride orally, the growth of many cancer types is considerably suppressed. Large tumor-bearing animals also exhibit strong inhibition of tumor growth. Sometimes the therapy results in either full or partial tumor regression. A broad range of cancers, including as lung cancer, melanoma, glioblastoma, ovarian, renal cell, triple-negative breast, and colon cancer, have responses[1].
Cell Assay
MDSC in vitro Proliferation Assay [1]
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells were isolated as previously described from splenic tissue of tumorbearing mice. One hundred thousand cells were plated in quadruplicates in poly-L-lysine coated plates. After 3 hours of treatment with 1uM Abequolixron (RGX-104) or DMSO as vehicle, cells were fixed with 4% PFA for 15 minutes and wash 3 times with 1X PBS prior staining. Rabbit monoclonal anti-Ki67 antibody (1:400 dilution) was applied at 4C overnight. Cells were incubated with Alexa Fluor 488 secondary antibody (1:200 dilution, Invitrogen) for one hour at room temperature, counterstained with DAPI (1:1000 dilution) and mounted with Prolong Gold. For the analysis of the percentage of Ki67 positive cells, five fields from each replicate were imaged at 20x magnification using Zeiss Axio Imager fluorescence microscope. Image analysis was performed using CellProfiler software.
MDSC Adhesion Assay [1]
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells were isolated as previously described from splenic tissue of tumor-bearing mice. One hundred thousand cells were plated in triplicates in poly-L-lysine coated plates. Cells were treated with 1uM Abequolixron (RGX-104) or DMSO as vehicle for 2 hours and shaken at 300 rpm for 30 minutes. After this, cells were fixed with 4% PFA for 15 minutes, wash 3 times with 1X PBS, counterstained with DAPI and mounted using Prolong Gold. For the analysis, ten fields from each replicate were imaged at 20x magnification using Zeiss Axio Imager fluorescence microscope. The number of remaining cells was determined using CellProfiler software.
In Vitro MDSC Apoptosis Assay [1]
Mouse spleens were isolated from either WT, LXRαβ−/−, ApoE−/− or LRP8−/− mice and homogenized to create a single cell suspension. The cells were treated with 1X ACK Lysing Buffer to lyse and remove erythrocytes. MDSCs were isolated from the resulting cell suspension using the Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Isolation Kit. Isolated MDSCs were plated onto slides and treated with either Abequolixron (RGX-104) or murine recombinant ApoE, at the indicated concentrations and times. The samples were then stained with an antibody against Cleaved Caspase-3.
Bone marrow cells are cultured with B16F10 melanoma cells and GM-CSF for 6 days. On day 3, RGX-104 (2 μM) is added to the culture. The mean number of Gr-1high CD11b+ cells per 50 mL of culture solution is assessed by flow cytometry on day 6[1].
Animal Protocol
RGX-104 was administered either through formulated drug chow at 100mg/kg/day or 50mg/kg/day or delivered via intraperitoneal injection (80mg/kg/day) in a vehicle suspension consisting of corn oil and ethanol (2.5% by volume) as indicated in each figure. Control cohorts were treated with either normal chow (Purina 5001) or with vehicle consisting of corn oil and ethanol (2.5% by volume), respectively. Tumor measurements were taken on the days indicted throughout the course of the experiment with calipers. For survival analysis, mice were euthanized when total tumor burden approached IACUC guidelines with a tumor burden exceeding 1,500 mm3 in volume. For the relevant experiments, anti-PD-1 mAb (clone RMP1-14) or a control isotype-matched antibody was administered at 10mg/kg intraperitoneally on days 3, 6, and 9 post-tumor injection. Gvax was generated as previously described and administered at high frequency (every 3 days) during the experiments as indicated.[1]
Mice[1] B16F10 cancer cells are subcutaneously injected into C57BL/6 mice. Following tumor growth to 5-10 mm3 in volume, mice are fed either control chow, chow supplemented with GW3965 (100 mg/kg), or chow supplemented with RGX-104 (100 mg/kg)[1].

Additional Infomation
To the best of our knowledge, RGX-104 represents the first MDSC-targeting therapeutic that sufficiently curbs immune-suppression as a single-agent to elicit CTL activation in humans. These findings suggest that LXR activation may be effective at preventing metastasis formation and inhibiting progression of metastatic disease given its multi-mechanistic effects on curbing immune suppression, angiogenesis, and tumor invasion. Additionally, LXR therapy may augment anti-tumor responses when given in combination with checkpoint inhibitors or adoptive T cell therapies or may render patients who are refractory to these immunotherapies responsive.[1]
