Description:

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

Darinaparsin, also know as ZIO-101 and SP-02, is a small-molecule organic arsenical with potential antineoplastic activity. Although the exact mechanism of action is unclear, darinaparsin, a highly toxic metabolic intermediate of inorganic arsenicals (iAs) that occurs in vivo, appears to generate volatile cytotoxic arsenic compounds when glutathione (GSH) concentrations are low. The arsenic compounds generated from darinaparsin disrupt mitochondrial bioenergetics, producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inducing ROS-mediated tumor cell apoptosis; in addition, this agent or its byproducts may initiate cell death by interrupting the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and may exhibit antiangiogenic effects.

Biological target:
Darinaparsin is a dimethylated arsenic linked to glutathione, and it is cytotoxic to DU145, LNCaP, and PC3 prostate cancer cells (IC50s = 5-10 µM) and patient-derived primary prostate cancer cells (IC50s = 2.5-20 µM), as well as Jurkat T cell lymphoma and L540 Hodgkin lymphoma cells (IC50s = 2.7 and 1.3 µM, respectively)
In vitro activity:
The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the potency of darinaparsin in TCL and HL cells lines Darinaparsin (1–3µM) treatment resulted in accumulation of cells predominantly at G2 cell cycle in both Jurkat and L428 cell lines (Figure 2A). In Jurkat, treatment with 1µM or 3µM resulted in accumulation of cells at G2 with 26% and 13% respectively, compared with presence of 11% G2 cells in the untreated control (Figure 2A). The decline in G2 with increased darinaparsin concentrations is likely due to decreased cell viability and associated increased apoptosis at higher dosing. In L428, treatment with 1µM or 3µM darinaparsin resulted in a significant accumulation of 29% (p<0.001) and 74% (p<0.0001) cells respectively at G2, compared with 10% in untreated control. Notably, treatment with 1 or 3 µM darinaparsin in L428 (HL) resulted only in a moderate effect on cell viability compared with other HL cell lines (Figure 1B). Therefore, these results suggest that perhaps cell cycle arrest with darinaparsin in L428 may impact the cytotoxic response in this cell line.

In vivo activity:
The in vivo efficacy of darinaparsin was investigated using tumor xenografts derived using either Jurkat (TCL) or L540 (HL) cell lines. Results from Jurkat-derived xenograft experiments showed with darinaparsin administration a significant 3.6- and 4.3-fold reduction in the average approximate size of the tumor with 40 mg/kg (average tumor size, 532mm3) and 70 mg/kg (average tumor size, 447mm3), respectively, compared with the average size of tumor (1929mm3) in the vehicle treated control group (p<0.0001, two way repeated ANOVA) (Figure 3A). There was significantly improved survival by Kaplan Meier in Jurkat SCID mice treated with darinaparsin compared with control (p<0.0001) (Figure 3B). While the extent of tumor growth inhibition was similar with 40 or 70mg/kg of darinaparsin, there was no appreciable change in total body weight in the treatment with 40mg/kg dose darinaparsin; however increased dosing to 70mg/kg initially resulted in a 10% loss of total body weight by 5 days and subsequently returned to normal once treatment was completed (Figure 3C). L540-derived SCID xenograft mice initially received 100 mg/kg darinaparsin for 5 days, and based on clinical observations, the dosage subsequently adjusted to 70 mg/kg for days 9, 10 and 11. Treatment with darinaparsin in L540 xenograft SCID mice resulted in a 3.2-fold reduction in the average size of the tumor (tumor size, 619 mm3) compared with control (2003 mm3) at four weeks (p=<0.001, two way repeated measurement ANOVA, GraphPad Prism 5) (Figure 3D). Kaplan Meier survival analysis showed a significant increase in survival with darinaparsin treatment compared with control groups (p< 0.0001, log rank, Sigma Pad Prism5) (Figure 3E). Treatment with 70mg/kg initially resulted in 10% loss of total body weight by day 5 and the observed body weight returned to normal once the treatment was completed (Figure 3F) in a similar manner as observed with Jurkat-derived xenograft tumors.
