Biological Activity

Bioactivity / Mechanism

AZD1208 is an ATP-competitive inhibitor of PIM1, PIM2 and PIM3. In the founding study, enzyme IC50 values at ATP Km were 0.4, 5.0 and 1.9 nM, respectively, increasing to 2.6, 164 and 17 nM at 5 mM ATP. These values describe the paper’s material, depicted with HCl, and are assay-dependent endpoints rather than treatment doses. [1]

In an independent recombinant assay using AZD1208 identified as AdooQ A13203-750, 100 nM AZD1208 suppressed PIM1-dependent phosphorylation of ABI2. This supports inhibition at a PIM1 substrate but does not establish a new IC50 or validate current product lots. [2]

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

In Vitro Studies

AZD1208 induced cell-cycle arrest and apoptotic/dead-cell staining in MOLM-16 AML cells after 72 hours. The phenotype was model-dependent: KG-1a and EOL-1 did not show the same arrest, and the authors reported no comparable marked apoptotic response in the other sensitive lines tested. The study’s material is depicted with HCl; equivalence to other forms was not established. [1]

ATP-dependent inhibition of purified PIM kinases

Biochemical assay · Purified human PIM1, PIM2 and PIM3 with BAD substrate [1]

AZD1208 inhibited all three PIM isoforms. Higher ATP reduced apparent potency, especially for PIM2; these enzyme endpoints are not cellular treatment concentrations.

At 72 hours, AZD1208 increased G0/G1 and subG1 populations and apoptotic/dead-cell staining in MOLM-16. KG-1a and EOL-1 did not show the same cell-cycle arrest, and no other sensitive line showed a comparable marked apoptotic response (reported in text, data not shown).

In Vivo Studies

In a MOLM-16 xenograft model, oral AZD1208 given once daily for 14 days produced 89% tumor growth inhibition at 10 mg/kg and slight regression at 30 mg/kg versus vehicle. The higher dose was described as a typical maximum-tolerated dose on this schedule. These are preclinical results for the reported material, depicted with HCl, without salt-dose conversion. [1]
