Description:

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

Larotrectinib, also known as ARRY-470 and LOXO-101, is an orally bioavailable, potent, ATP-competitive inhibitor of TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC. LOXO-101 has IC50 values in the low nanomolar range for inhibition of all three TRK family members in binding and cellular assays, with 100x selectivity over other kinases, and has shown acceptable pharmaceutical properties and safety in nonclinical models. The TRK family of neurotrophin receptors, TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC (encoded by NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3 genes, respectively) and their neurotrophin ligands regulate growth, differentiation and survival of neurons.

More Info
Larotrectinib (LOXO-101, ARRY-470) is an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of cancer. It is an inhibitor of tropomyosin kinase receptors TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC. It was discovered by Array BioPharma and licensed to Loxo Oncology in 2013. On 26 November 2018, Larotrectinib was approved by the FDA, after having been initially awarded orphan drug status in 2015 for soft tissue sarcoma and breakthrough therapy designation in 2016 for the treatment of metastatic solid tumors with NTRK fusion.. The approval was unusual in that it was only the second agent approved not for use with cancers of specific tissues, but rather for any tissue carrying specific mutations (i.e. the approval is "tissue agnostic"). Copied from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larotrectinib      
Biological target:
Larotrectinib (LOXO-101) is an ATP-competitive, selective inhibitor of the tropomyosin-related kinase (TRK) family receptors, with low nanomolar 50% inhibitory concentrations against all three isoforms (TRKA, B, and C).
In vitro activity:
To demonstrate activity of Larotrectinib (LOXO-101) in pre-clinical models harboring different variants of TRK oncogenes proliferation assays were performed in three cell line models harboring TRK gene fusions: CUTO-3.29 is derived from a patient with lung adenocarcinoma harboring the MPRIP-NTRK1 gene fusion, the KM12 cell line is a colorectal cancer cell line harboring the TPM3-NTRK1 fusion, and the MO-91 cell line is derived from an acute myeloid leukemia patient harboring the ETV6-NTRK3 fusion. Measurement of proliferation following treatment with LOXO-101 demonstrated a dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation in all three cell lines (Fig. 1A–C). The IC50 was less than 100 nM for CUTO-3.29 (Fig. 1A) and less than 10nM for KM12 (Fig. 1B) and MO-91 (Fig. 1C) consistent with the known potency of this drug for the TRK kinase family. Consistent with the inhibition of cellular proliferation, we also observed inhibition of phosphorylation of the MPRIP-TRKA oncoprotein and ERK1/2 in CUTO-3.29 (Fig. 1D), inhibition of TPM3-TRKA, pAKT and pERK1/2 in KM12 (Fig. 1E), and the TEL-TRKC oncoprotein (encoded by ETV6-NTRK3), pAKT and pERK1/2 in MO-91 cells using low doses of LOXO-101 (Fig. 1F). pAKT was not inhibited in the CUTO-3.29 cells by LOXO-101 suggesting that TRK signaling is not AKT-dependent in this tumor. Reference: Cancer Discov. 2015 Oct;5(10):1049-57. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/pmid/26216294/
In vivo activity:
It was determined next whether Larotrectinib (LOXO-101) could inhibit tumor growth in vivo. Athymic nude mice injected with KM12 cells were treated with LOXO-101 orally daily for 2 weeks (Fig. 1G). Dose-dependent tumor inhibition was observed demonstrating the ability of this selective compound to inhibit tumor growth in vivo. Together, these and previously published results indicate that TRK fusions are constitutively activated, regulate critical downstream signaling pathways such as MAPK and AKT, and are inhibited by a highly-specific TRK inhibitor.
