Description:

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

Alectinib, also known as AF802, or CH5424802 or RO5424802, is a potent, selective, and orally available ALK inhibitor with a unique chemical scaffold, showing preferential antitumor activity against cancers with gene alterations of ALK, such as nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells expressing EML4-ALK fusion and anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) cells expressing NPM-ALK fusion in vitro and in vivo. Alectinib inhibited ALK L1196M, which corresponds to the gatekeeper mutation conferring common resistance to kinase inhibitors, and blocked EML4-ALK L1196M-driven cell growth. Alectinib (as HCl salt) was approved in Dec. 2015.

Biological target:
Alectinib Hydrochloride (CH5424802 Hydrochloride; RO5424802 Hydrochloride; AF-802 Hydrochloride) is an ALK inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.9 nM and a Kd value of 2.4 nM (in an ATP-competitive manner), and also inhibits ALK F1174L and ALK R1275Q with IC50s of 1 nM and 3.5 nM, respectively.
In vitro activity:
This study selected six NB cell lines, including three ALK-WT cell lines (IMR-32, NB-19, and SK-N-AS) and three ALK-mutant cell lines (Kelly, SH-SY5Y, and LA-N-6). The results show that cell viability was greatly reduced by alectinib treatment in all six cell lines tested (Figure 1A), and there were morphological changes in the NB cells (Figure 1C). The IC50s of the cell lines tested ranges from 3.181 μM to 9.6 μM. ALK mutated cells Kelly and SH-SY5Y were relatively more sensitive to the treatment of alectinib and showed greater inhibition of cell growth. In addition, alectinib showed potent inhibitory effects on ALK-WT cells (Figure 1B) with IC50s ranging from 4 to 9.4 μM. These results indicated that alectinib significantly inhibits cell growth in both ALK-WT and ALK-mutant NB cells.

In vivo activity:
EHMES-10 cells developed pleural carcinomatosis accompanied by thoracic tumors and malignant pleural effusions within 28 days after intrathoracic (orthotopic) inoculation (Figure 4A). Alectinib treatment given from day 15 to day 28 remarkably inhibited the production of thoracic tumors and pleural effusions as determined by CT scans on day 28 (Figure 4A). Accordingly, the weight of thoracic tumors and the volume of pleural effusions in alectinib-treated mice were significantly lower than those of control mice (Figure 4B, 4C). To further assess whether alectinib rescued pleural carcinomatosis, an in vivo imaging model was utilized. For this model, luciferase-transfected EHMES-10 cells (EHMES-10/Eluc) were established. Elevated bioluminescence was detected in mice inoculated with EHMES-10/Eluc cells by day 24, indicating the presence of pleural carcinomatosis. Bioluminescence in control mice consistently increased over the course of the experiment, but bioluminescence in alectinib-treated mice decreased. These results clearly indicated that alectinib treatment rescued the pleural carcinomatosis produced by EHMES-10/Eluc cells (Figure 5A, 5B).
