More Info
PD-1-IN-17 may be related to CA-170. The chemical structure of CA170 has not been disclosed as of 11/11/2019. CA-170, also known as AUPM 170, is an orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of the immune checkpoint regulatory proteins programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1; B7-H1; CD274), PD-L2, and V-domain immunoglobulin (Ig) suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA; programmed death 1 homolog; PD1H; PD-1H), with potential negative immune checkpoint regulatory and antineoplastic activities. CA-170 targets and binds to PD-L1, PD-L2 and VISTA. This inhibits PD-L1/PD-L2/VISTA-mediated signaling, abrogates the PD-L1-, PD-L2- and VISTA-induced suppression of T-lymphocyte immune responses, enhances cytotoxic T-cell proliferation and activation against tumor cells, increases cytokine production by T-cells, and inhibits tumor cell growth. PD-L1, PD-L2 and VISTA, negative checkpoint molecules of immune activation, play key roles in the suppression of T-cell functions. CA-170 that selectively targets PD-L1 and VISTA, both of which function as negative checkpoint regulators of immune activation. CA-170 can induce effective proliferation and IFN-γ (Interferon-gamma) production (a cytokine that is produced by activated T cells and is a marker of T cell activation) by T cells that are specifically suppressed by PD-L1 or VISTA. In addition, CA-170 also appears to have anti-tumor effects similar to anti-PD-1 or anti-VISTA antibodies in multiple in vivo tumor models. Curis is currently investigating CA-170 in a Phase 1 trial in patients with advanced solid tumors and lymphomas.
Product Data
Biological target:
PD-1-IN-17 is a programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Flow cytometry and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) revealed that CA170 increased CD8+ T cell infiltration and enhanced their effector functions by decreasing the tumor infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and Regulatory T (Treg) cells, while the Kras vaccine primarily induced expansion of CD4+ effector T cells. VISTA antagonism by CA170 revealed strong efficacy against lung tumorigenesis with broad immunoregulatory functions that influence effector, memory and regulatory T cells, and drives an adaptive T cell tumor-specific immune response that enhances the efficacy of the KRAS vaccine.

In vivo activity:
The efficacy of CA-170 was explored using three independent immunocompetent tumor models established in mice: the CT26 and MC38 colon carcinoma model and the B16F10 melanoma lung metastasis model. As a single agent CA-170 dosed orally once a day showed a significant tumor growth inhibition in MC38 (43%; Fig. 5a) and significant reduction in metastatic counts in B16F10 (73%; Fig. 5b) models, respectively. In the CT26 colon carcinoma model, CA-170 showed an enhanced tumor growth inhibition in combination with docetaxel (68% TGI, p < 0.05; Fig. 5c) which is higher than TGI observed with docetaxel alone (43% TGI, p < 0.05; Fig. 5c).
