Biological Activity

[Description]:

Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) is an albumin-binding prodrug of doxorubicin, which is released from albumin under acidic conditions. Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) has potent antitumor activities in various cancer cell lines and in in murine tumor models.

[In Vitro]

Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) (0.27 to 2.16 μM) inhibits blood vessel formation and reduces multiple myeloma cell growth in a pH-dependent fashion[1].

[In Vivo]

Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) (10.8 mg/kg, i.v.) shows significantly smaller tumor volumes and IgG levels on days 28, and is well tolerated with 90% of mice surviving until the termination of the study in the mice bearing the LAGκ-1A tumor[1]. Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) shows a good safety profile at doses up to 260 mg/mL doxorubicin equivalents, and is able to induce tumor regressions in breast cancer, small cell lung cancer and sarcoma in phase I study[2]. Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) shows superior activity over doxorubicin in a murine renal cell carcinoma model and in breast carcinoma xenograft models[3].

[Cell Assay]

Cells are seeded at 1×105 cells/100 μL/well in 96-well plates in RPMI-1640 media with FBS for 24 hours before treatment. Cells are cultured in the presence of medium, Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) or doxorubicin for 48 hours. Next, cell viability is quantified using the CellTiter 96 AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay. Each well is treated with MTS for 1 to 4 hours, after which absorbance at 490 nm is recorded using a 96-well plate reader. The quantity of formazan product as measured is directly proportional to the number of living cells. Data graphed are means±SEM using 3 replicates per data point.

[Animal admin]

For the LAGκ-1A experiment, Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) is administered to SCID mice at 10.8 mg/kg (doxorubicin equivalent dose of 8.0 mg/kg) once weekly. Mice are treated with conventional doxorubicin at 4.0 and 8.0 mg/kg once weekly. For the LAGκ-2 experiment, Aldoxorubicin (INNO-206) is administered once weekly (W) at doses of 2.7 and 5.4 mg/kg, or on 3 consecutive days (W-F) weekly at doses of 0.9 and 1.8 mg/kg. Bortezomib is administered twice weekly (W, F) at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg. Doxorubicin is administered to SCID mice at 2, 4, and 8 mg/kg, and PLD is administered to SCID mice at 2 mg/kg once weekly. Each drug is administered i.v. in a volume of 100 μL.
