Description:

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

Encequidar, also known as HM-30181, is an oral P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor developed to enhance the oral bioavailability of P-gp substrate drugs. Encequidar showed the highest potency (IC(50)=0.63nM) among several MDR1 inhibitors, including cycloporin A, XR9576, and GF120918, and effectively blocked transepithelial transport of paclitaxel in MDCK monolayers (IC(50)=35.4nM). Encequidar is currently under clinical trials.

Biological target:
Encequidar mesylate (HM30181 mesylate; HM30181A mesylate) is a competitive and potent P-glycoprotein inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Based on these data, the IC50 of encequidar for inhibition of P-gp in Caco-2 intestinal cells was determined to be 53 nM, demonstrating that encequidar potently inhibits P-gp and prevents the efflux of paclitaxel from intestinal cells in vitro. Reference: J Med Chem. 2021 Apr 8;64(7):3677-3693. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33729781/
In vivo activity:
40 mg/kg paclitaxel (in combination with 20 mg/kg encequidar) suppressed tumor growth by 94% and induced remission of tumor growth until day 47, an outcome superior to the IV paclitaxel arm included in the study. The results of this study demonstrate the ability of encequidar to inhibit P-gp and facilitate the absorption of paclitaxel to therapeutically effective plasma concentrations in vivo. Clinically, paclitaxel is used to treat many different types of cancers, including breast, lung, and ovarian cancer.
