Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

TAS-​116, also known as Pimitespib, is a potent and selective inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) subtypes alpha and beta, with potential antineoplastic and chemo/radiosensitizing activities. TAS-116 specifically binds to and inhibits the activity of Hsp90 alpha and beta; this results in the proteasomal degradation of oncogenic client proteins, which inhibits client protein dependent-signaling, induces apoptosis, and inhibits the proliferation of cells overexpressing HSP90alpha/beta.

Product Data
Biological target:
TAS-116, also known as Pimitespib, is a potent and selective inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) subtypes alpha and beta.
In vitro activity:
TAS-116 achieved IC50 values of less than 0.5 μmol/L in 10 ATL-related cell lines and less than 1 μmol/L in primary peripheral blood cells of nine ATL patients; no toxicity was observed toward CD4+ lymphocytes from healthy donors, indicating the safety of this agent. Furthermore, gene expression profiling of TAS-116-treated Tax-positive or -negative cell lines and primary ATL cells using DNA microarray and multiple pathway analysis revealed the significant downregulation of the NF-κB pathway in Tax-positive cells and cell-cycle arrest in Tax-negative cells and primary ATL cells. TAS-116 suppressed the activator protein-1 and tumor necrosis factor pathways in all examined cells. Reference: Cancer Sci. 2022 Feb;113(2):684-696. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34794206/
In vivo activity:
Oral administration of TAS-116 led to tumor shrinkage in human tumor xenograft mouse models accompanied by depletion of multiple HSP90 clients, demonstrating that the inhibition of HSP90α and β alone was sufficient to exert antitumor activity in certain tumor models. Importantly, in a rat model, the antitumor activity of TAS-116 was accompanied by a higher distribution of the compound in subcutaneously xenografted NCI-H1975 non-small cell lung carcinoma tumors than in retina. Moreover, TAS-116 showed activity against orthotopically transplanted NCI-H1975 lung tumors. Reference: Mol Cancer Ther. 2015 Jan;14(1):14-22. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25416789/
