Product Description

Ceritinib (formerly known as LDK378; trade name: Zykadia) is novel, potent and selective inhibitor against ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive) with potential anticancer activity. In cell-free experiments, it inhibits ALK with an IC50 of 0.2 nM and exhibits 40- and 35-fold selectivity for ALK over IGF-1R and InsR, respectively. The FDA approved ceritinib in April 2014 as a treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In 78 patients with anaplastic ALK+ metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who had either not received crizotinib therapy before or had progressed during the course of crizotinib therapy, Ceritinib demonstrated a significant clinical response in Phase I trials.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
ALK (IC50 = 0.2 nM); InsR (IC50 = 7 nM); IGF-1R (IC50 = 8 nM); STK22D (IC50 = 23 nM); FLT3 (IC50 = 60 nM); FGFR2 (IC50 = 260 nM)
ln Vitro
LDK378 has a much stronger anti-proliferative effect in Ba/F3-NPM-ALK and Karpas290 cells, with IC50 values of 26.0 nM and 22.8 nM, respectively, than in Ba/F3-Tel-InsR and Ba/F3-WT cells, where the values are 319.5 nM and 2477 nM.[1]
ln Vivo
LDK378 exhibits negligible levels of glutathione (GSH) adducts (<1%) in liver microsomes and is intended to lessen the likelihood of reactive metabolites forming. With moderate inhibition of CYP3A4 (midazolam substrate) and hERG, LDK378 exhibits a relatively good metabolic stability. When compared to liver blood flow, LDK378 shows poor plasma clearance in mice, rats, dogs, and monkeys. However, in these animals, oral bioavailability is greater than 55%. With no reduction in body weight, LDK378 causes a dose-dependent growth inhibition and tumor regression in the rat xenograft models Karpas299 and H2228. When given chronically in mice at doses up to 100 mg/kg, LDK378 has no effect on insulin levels or plasma glucose utilization.
Enzyme Assay
All kinases are expressed using the baculovirus expression technology as either GST- or histidine-tagged fusion proteins, with the exception of untagged ERK2, which is made in E. coli. Using the LabChip mobility shift assay, the kinase activity is determined. For sixty minutes, the assay is run at 30°C. It is routinely possible to determine the effect of LDK378 on the enzymatic activity from a single reading (end point measurement) by analyzing the linear progress curves in both the presence and absence of LDK378.
Cell Assay
LDK378 or DMSO are serially diluted and incubated with luciferase-expressing cells for two to three days. Using the Bright-Glo Luciferase Assay System, luciferase expression is measured as a proxy for cell proliferation and survival. The XLFit program is used to generate IC50 values.
Animal Protocol
Studies on in vivo PK are carried out on dogs, rats, mice, and cynomolgus monkeys. Male Balb/c mice are given cetinib (LDK378) (HCl salt) orally via gavage at a dose of 20 mg/kg (n=3) and intravenously via tail vein at a dose of 5 mg/kg (n= 3). Sprague-Dawley rats are dosed with Ceritinib (LDK378) (HCl salt) intravenously via the tail vein at 3 mg/kg (n=3) and orally via gavage at 10 mg/kg (n=3) using the same formulation. Serial blood samples are taken over the course of 24 hours following dosage at prearranged times. Ceritinib (phosphate salt) is given as a single intravenous (n = 2) or oral (n = 3) dose to male beagle dogs. The intravenous solution has a dosage of 5 mg/kg, while the oral suspension has a dosage of 20 mg/kg. A single intravenous (n = 2) or oral (n = 3) dose of Ceritinib (free base) is given to male Cynomologus monkeys. The intravenous solution has a dose of 5 mg/kg, while the oral suspension has a dose of 60 mg/kg. For plasma, blood is drawn at prearranged intervals over a period of 144 hours following dosage.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
