CFI-400945 exhibits growth inhibition effects on breast, lung, ovarian and colon cancer cells. The IC50s (in μM) are as follows: SKBr-3 (5.3), Cal-51 (0.26), BT-20 (0.058), A549 (0.005), OVCAR-3 (0.018), SW620 (0.38), Colo-205 (0.017), and HCT116+/+ (0.004) [1]. CFI-400945 inhibits autophosphorylation of PLK4 at serine 305 with an EC50 value of 12.3 nM in cells overexpressing PLK4. Cancer cells treated with CFI-400945 exhibit effects consistent with PLK4 kinase inhibition, including dysregulated centriole duplication, mitotic defects, and cell death[2].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 100 mg/mL (187.04 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.68 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (4.68 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .
μL , mix evenly;
3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
Active PLK4 is purified and used to measure PLK4 activity, using an indirect ELISA detection system. PLK1, PLK2, PLK3, AURKA, and AUKB/INCENP compound inhibition are determined using FRET-based homogeneous assay kits from Invitrogen. The assays are performed with ATP concentrations of 25, 60, and 80 μM, respectively, for PLK1, PLK2, and PLK3 and ATP concentrations of 20 and 128 μM, respectively, for AURKA and AURKB/INCENP[1].

MDA-MB-468, MCF-7, HCC1954, MDA-MB-231, SKBr-3, Cal-51, and BT-20 breast cancer cells are treated with 10 nM to 50 μM CFI-400945 for 5 days. Cell viability is measured using SRB assay[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
To treat an established tumor, CFI-400945 and the vehicle (water) are administered by oral gavage (2.5-20 mg/kg), and 5-FU and carboplatin are administered by intraperitoneal injection to mice as described in the text. Animal weights are monitored daily, and tumor volume is measured three times per week[2].
