Biological target:
ASP4132 is an orally active, potent AMPK activator with an EC50 of 18 nM.
In vitro activity:
The resulting in vitro pharmacological properties and aqueous solubility of 28 (ASP4132 tosylate) are summarized in Table 9. Compound 28 showed comparable cell growth inhibitory (IC50 = 0.014 μM) activity against MDA-MB-453 to that of compound 2. Furthermore, 28 showed relatively weak antiproliferative activity against SK-BR-3 (IC50 > 3 μM), indicating that the selectivity of cellular growth inhibitory activity observed in lead compound 2 was maintained in 28. In addition, the aqueous solubility of 28 was significantly higher than that of 2, especially in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia 2nd fluid for disintegration test (JP2: pH = 6.8) with taurocholic acid.

In vivo activity:
By recording tumor volumes this study found that oral administration of a single dose of ASP4132 (5 mg/kg body weight, for 21 days) largely inhibited NSCLC xenograft growth in SCID mice (Fig. 6A). This concentration was based on the recommendation from the supplier. Volumes of NSCLC xenografts with ASP4132 administration were significantly lower than those of vehicle control xenografts (Fig. 6A). Results showed that ASP4132 oral administration potently suppressed NSCLC xenograft growth in SCID mice (Fig. 6B). At Day-42 all tumors of the two groups were separated through surgery and weighted individually. Results in Fig. 6C demonstrated that ASP4132-treated NSCLC xenografts were dramatically lighter than the control tumors. Importantly, the mice body weights were not significantly different between the ASP4132 group and vehicle control group (Fig. 6D), indicating that mice should be well-tolerated to ASP4132 treatment regimen, and this study did not detect any apparent toxicities.
