The IC50 values for Sonidegib (NVP-LDE225) for the major human CYP450 drug metabolizing enzymes is greater than 10 μM[1]. Sonidegib (LDE225), a small molecule, clinically investigated SMO inhibitor, used alone and in combination with Nilotinib, inhibits the Hh pathway in CD34+ chronic phase (CP)-chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) cells, reducing the number and self-renewal capacity of CML leukaemia stem cell (LSC). Sonidegib interacts directly with SMO, in a similar fashion to cyclopamine, to reduce expression of downstream Hh signaling targets. Primary CD34+ CP-CML cells are cultured in serum free media (SFM)±Sonidegib for 6, 24 and 72 hours (h). At 72 h, while there is variability between the biological samples, GLI1 is significantly downregulated following exposure to Sonidegib (10 nM; 0.78-fold and 100 nM; 0.73-fold, respectively (p<0.01)[2].

Protocol
CD34+ CP-CML cells are seeded in SFM alone±Sonidegib±Nilotinib and cultured for 24-72 h prior to assessment. Proliferation is measured using colorimetric assessment of BrDU incorporation. Proportion of viable cells versus those in early and late apoptosis is assessed by flow cytometry using annexin V-FITC and 7-amino-actinomycin D (7-AAD, Via-Probe solution). Cell cycle status is assessed using Ki67 (FITC) expression and 7-AAD incorporation.

Mice[2]
The transgenic EGFP+/SCLtTA/TRE-BCR-ABL mouse model is used to investigate the effect of Sonidegib treatment on CML LSC in vivo. Scl-tTa-BCR-ABL mice in the FVB/N background are crossed with transgenic GFP-expressing mice. Bone marrow cells are obtained 4 weeks post induction, GFP+ cells are selected by flow cytometry and transplanted by tail vein injection (106 cells/mouse) into wild-type FVB/N recipient mice, irradiated at 900 cGy, generating a large cohort of mice with similar time of onset of leukemia. Blood samples obtained 4 weeks post transplantation confirmed a neutrophilic leukocytosis in recipient mice. Mice are treated with Nilotinib (50 mg/kg by gavage, daily), Sonidegib (80 mg/kg by gavage, daily), Sonidegib+Nilotinib, or with vehicle alone (control). After 3 weeks of treatment, animals are euthanised and marrow content of femurs and tibiae, spleen cells and blood obtained. Total white cell count (WCC), GFP-expressing WCC, myeloid cells, and GFP+ progenitors and stem cells are measured by flow cytometry. Survival is assessed in a subset of mice for 120d post discontinuation of treatment. Spleen and BM cells from a subset of mice in each arm are pooled and 5×106 cells/mouse (8 mice/condition) are transplanted into wild-type FVB/N recipient mice irradiated at 900 cGy. Engraftment is monitored by drawing peripheral blood (PB) every 4 weeks. The percentage of GFP+ cells in PB is analyzed by flow cytometry.
