Description

AMG 900 is a potent and highly selective pan-Aurora kinases inhibitor with IC50 of 5 nM, 4 nM and 1 nM for Aurora A, B and C, respectively.

IC50 & Target[1]

Aurora A

5 nM (IC50)

Aurora B

4 nM (IC50)

Aurora C

1 nM (IC50)

In Vitro

AMG 900 inhibits the enzyme activity of all 3 aurora kinase family members with IC50 values of 5 nM or less. In HeLa cells, AMG 900 inhibits autophosphorylation of aurora-A and -B in a concentration-dependent manner. Treatment of HCT116 cells with 50 nM of AMG 900 for 48 hours resulted in polyploidy and suppresses the formation of colonies after cell replating. AMG 900 inhibits cell proliferation, with EC50 values ranging from 0.7 to 5.3 nM. Importantly, 4 of these AMG 900-sensitive cell lines (HCT-15, MES-SA-Dx5, 769P, and SNU449) are resistant to paclitaxel and other anticancer agents. AMG 900 inhibits p-histone H3 or induced polyploidy across all the cell lines tested irrespective of P-gp or BCRP status with uniform potency (IC50 or EC50 values ranging from 2 to 3 nM)[1].

In Vivo

AMG 900 exhibits significant antitumor activity in all 9 xenograft models tested (50%-97% TGI compared with the vehicle-treated control group, P<0.005, P<0.0005). Importantly, AMG 900 is active in the MES-SA-Dx5 (84% TGI, P<0.0001) and NCI-H460-PTX (66% TGI, P<0.0001) xenograft models that are resistant to either Docetaxel or Paclitaxel administered at their respective maximum tolerated doses. AMG 900 inhibits the activity of aurora-B in HCT116 tumors and suppresses the growth of multiple xenografts that represent diverse tumor types[1]. Treatment with AMG 900 at 15 mg/kg significantly inhibits p-Histone H3 in the G2M cell population in mouse bone marrow and cytokeratin positive COLO 205 tumor compared with vehicle-treated controls[2]. AMG 900 exhibits a low-to-moderate clearance and a small volume of distribution. Its terminal elimination half-life ranged from 0.6 to 2.4 h. AMG 900 is well-absorbed in fasted animals with an oral bioavailability of 31% to 107%. Food intake had an effect on rate (rats) or extent (dogs) of AMG 900 oral absorption[3].

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (9.93 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (9.93 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.

Cell Assay
[1]

Different tumor cell lines including NCI-H460, MDA-MB231, MES-SA, NCI-H460 PTX, MDA-MB-231 PTX, MES-SA Dx5, and HCT-15. are treated with AMG 900 (0.5, 5.0, 50 nM) for 48 hours, washed twice with complete media, and cells are replated at a density of 5000 cells per well in drug-free complete media. Cells are grown until the DMSO control wells are confluent. Cells are stained with crystal violet dye, washed with distilled water, and imaged using a digital scanner[1].

Animal Administration
[2][3]

Mice[2]
Female athymic nude mice of approximately 14 weeks of age are used. Mice are injected subcutaneously with 2×106 COLO 205 cells in 100 μL of 50% matrigel. Mice with established tumors (approximately 200 mm3) are assigned into experimental groups (n=10 per group) and administered a single oral dose of vehicle or AMG 900 at 3.75, 7.5, and 15 mg/kg. Three hours after treatment tissue specimens (bone marrow, tumor, and skin) are collected from individual mice for pharmacodynamic and histological analysis. Blood plasma samples (50 μL) are collected from individual mice to determine the concentration of AMG 900 using quantitative methods. Excised tumors are divided in half for parallel flow and imaging based cytometric analyses.
Rats[3]
Effect of food intake on AMG 900 PK is evaluated in male rats and male dogs following a single oral dose of AMG 900 at 5 mg/kg (rats) or 2 mg/kg (dogs) in the oral formulation mentioned above. For the rats, food is removed ~16 h before dosing for the fasted group, although the fed group had free access to standard laboratory rodent chow throughout the study; food is returned to rats in the fasted group 2 h post-dose. All the dogs are fasted for ~16 h before dosing. Each dog in the fed group receive 350 g of moist food 1 h prior to dosing, and any remaining food is removed after 1 h. All the dogs are fed 2 h post-dose.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
