Biological Activity

Bioactivity / Mechanism

Tivozanib treatment reduced VEGFR2 phosphorylation in OVCAR3, SKOV3 and A2780CP ovarian carcinoma cells at higher tested concentrations (5–20 μM, 48 h). Downstream signaling varied by cell line: ERK1/2 phosphorylation increased in SKOV3 cells. These cellular responses do not define biochemical potency or target selectivity. [1]

Literature-reported observations and conditions; not Adooq-tested protocols or general treatment recommendations.

In Vitro Studies

In OVCAR3, SKOV3 and A2780CP ovarian carcinoma cells, 48 h exposure to tivozanib (1–20 μM) reduced MTT-based viability relative to vehicle controls. The experiment used DMSO at no more than 0.1% [v/v]. No tivozanib IC50 is assigned from the plotted data. [1]

Ovarian carcinoma cell viability and VEGFR2 signaling

Cell-based study · OVCAR3, SKOV3 and A2780CP human ovarian carcinoma cells [1]

After 48 h, tivozanib reduced MTT-based viability and, at higher tested concentrations, VEGFR2 phosphorylation. Downstream responses varied by cell line: ERK1/2 phosphorylation increased in SKOV3 cells. These cellular findings do not establish an isolated-enzyme IC50 or target selectivity.

In Vivo Studies

In wild-type mice with colonic mucosal wounds, tivozanib treatment was associated with fewer wound-bed blood vessels and more HIF-1α-positive cells at day 4 after injury (both P < 0.01 versus vehicle). The study reported oral gavage at 1 μg/kg once daily. This finding illustrates impaired repair-associated angiogenesis and increased local hypoxia; it is not an antitumor efficacy result. [2]

Compared with vehicle controls, tivozanib-treated mice had fewer wound-bed blood vessels and more HIF-1α-positive cells 4 days after mucosal injury. The result links VEGFR inhibition with impaired wound angiogenesis and local hypoxia in this model.
