Description	Refametinib (RDEA119) (RDEA119, Bay 86-9766) is an effective, ATP non-competitive and specific inhibitor of MEK1/2 (IC50: 19/47 nM).
Targets&IC50	MEK2:47 nM, MEK1:19 nM
In vitro	RDEA119 is selectively bound directly to an allosteric pocket in the MEK1/2 enzymes, and highly efficacious at inhibiting cell proliferation in several tumor cell lines, including A375, SK-MEI-28, Colo205, HT-29 and BxPC3. RDEA119 inhibits anchorage-dependent growth of human cancer cell lines harboring the gain-of-function V600E BRAF mutant with GI50 values ranging from 67 to 89 nM. Under anchorage-independent conditions, GI50 values for all cell lines tested are similar (40-84 nM). RDEA119 shows a tissue selectivity that reduces its potential for central nervous system–related side effects. [1] RDEA119 potently inhibits the proliferation of the 4 cell lines that harbored BRAF mutation but has no or modest effects on the other 4 cells that harbored wild-type BRAF (IC50 of 0.034-0.217 μM vs. 1.413-34.120 μM). This inhibitory effect of RDEA119 in selected cell lines OCUT1 (BRAF V600E(+), PIK3CA H1047R(+)) and SW1376 (BRAF V600E(+)) is enhanced by combination with the mTOR inhibitor, temsirolimus. RDEA119 and temsirolimus also show synergistic effects on autophagic death of OCUT1 and KAT18 cells selectively tested. [2]
In vivo	Oral administration of RDEA119 at 50 mg/kg on a once daily x 14 schedule leads to a 68% tumor growth inhibition (TGI) in human melanoma A375 tumor model. Oral administration of RDEA119 at 25 mg/kg on a once a once daily x 14 schedule leads to a 123% TGI in human colon carcinoma Colo205 tumor model (TGI > 100% occurs when the tumor shrinks below its starting volume). A dose of 25 mg/kg once daily x 14 produces 56% and 67% TGI for HT-29 and A431 tumors, respectively. [1]
Kinase Assay	MEK Kinase Assay: Kinase inactive murine ERK2 (mERK2) K52A/T183A is affinity purified from Escherichia coli expressed using the pET21a vector. MEK1 kinase activity is determined using mERK2 K52A T183A as the substrate. Recombinant MEK1 enzyme (5 nM) is first activated by 0.02 unit or 1.5 nM of RAF1 in the presence of 25 mM HEPES (pH 7.8), 1 mM MgCl2, 50 mM NaCl, 0.2 mM EDTA, and 50 μM ATP for 30 minutes at 25 °C. The reactions are initiated by adding 2 μM of mERK2K52A T183A and 2.5 μCi [γ-33P] ATP in a total volume of 20 μL. The MEK2 kinase activity is determined similarly except that activation by RAF1 is not needed and 11 nM of MEK2 enzyme (active) are used in the assays.Kinase profiling is performed by Invitrogen using their Select Screen Kinase Profiling Service. The Z'-LYTE biochemical assay is used. RDEA119 is assayed in quadruplicate at 10 μM against 205 kinases.
Cell Research	For anchorage-dependent growth inhibition experiments, cells are plated in white 384-well plates at 1,000/20 μL/well or white 96-well microplates at 4,000/100 μL/well. After 24-h incubation at 37 °C, 5% CO2, and 100% humidity, RDEA119 is incubated for 48 hours at 37 °C and assayed using CellTiter-Glo. For the 96-well anchorage-independent growth assay, wells of an "ultralow binding" plate (Corning) are filled with 60 μL of a 0.15% agarose solution in complete RPMI 1640. Then, 60 μL of complete RPMI 1640 containing 9,000 cells in 0.15% agarose are added per well. After 24 hour, 60 μL of a 3 × drug solution in agarose-free complete RPMI 1640 are added. After 7 d, 36 μL of 6 × 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)- 2H-tetrazolium, inner salt reagent are added per well. After 2 hours at 37 °C, absorbance at 490 nm is determined on the M5 plate reader. (Only for Reference)
