Biological Activity
IC50: 0.37 nM (Aurora B)
Barasertib-HQPA (3 μM, 3 hours) significantly decreases expression of the phosphorylated forms of histone H3 in freshly isolated leukemia cells[1].
Barasertib-hydroxyquinazoline pyrazol anilide (HQPA)] is converted rapidly to the active Barasertib-HQPA in plasma[2].
Barasertib-HQPA induces a marked anti-propliferative effect accompanied by the appearance of a polyploid population, which in most cases led to apoptosis[3].

Barasertib (AZD1152, 5 mg/kg) enhances the ability of vincristine or daunorubicin to inhibit the proliferation of human MOLM13 leukemic xenografts[1].
Barasertib (AZD1152, (10-150 mg/kg/d) potently inhibited the growth of human colon, lung, and hematologic tumor xenografts (mean tumor growth inhibition range, 55% to z100%; P < 0.05) in immunodeficient mice[2].
