AZD-1208

The Uses of AZD-1208

AZD1208 is a potent, and orally available Pim kinase inhibitor.

Biological Activity

upregulation of pim kinases has been observed in several types of leukemias and lymphomas. pim-1, -2, and -3 promote cell proliferation and survival downstream of cytokine and growth factor signaling pathways. azd1208 is a potent, highly selective, and orally available pim kinase inhibitor.

in vitro

azd1208 inhibited the growth of 5 of 14 acute myeloid leukemia (aml) cell lines tested. in molm-16 cells, azd1208 also causes cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, accompanied by a dose-dependent reduction in phosphorylation of bcl-2 antagonist of cell death [1].

in vivo

azd1208 inhibits the growth of kg-1a and molm-16 xenograft tumors in vivo with a clear pk/pd relationship. treatment with 10 mg/kg or 30 mg/kg of azd1208 led to an 89% tumor growth inhibition or slight regression, respectively [1].

Storage

Store at -20°C
