Biological Activity

Bioactivity / Mechanism

BX-795 directly inhibited TBK1- and IKKε-catalyzed peptide phosphorylation in a cell-free assay. Activity decreased with increasing inhibitor concentration at 100 µM ATP; this experiment does not establish selectivity against other kinases. [1]

BX-795-induced G2/M accumulation persisted in PDK1-null mouse embryonic stem cells. In this model, cell-cycle arrest therefore cannot be interpreted as a specific readout of PDK1 inhibition. [2]

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

In Vitro Studies

In a six-day growth-inhibition screen, BX-795 produced higher dose-response AUC bars in endometrial cancer organoids REME9 and REME16 than in conventional AN3 CA and RL95-2 cells, consistent with weaker inhibition in the organoids across the screen. This was a qualitative model comparison, without a BX-795-specific significance test. [3]

Direct inhibition of TBK1 and IKKε peptide phosphorylation

Biochemical assay · Purified GST-TBK1 or GST-IKKε; TBK1-Tide peptide substrate [1]

Increasing BX-795 concentrations reduced peptide phosphorylation by both enzymes relative to the zero-inhibitor control. These are cell-free activity measurements, not cellular potency values.

BX-795 response in endometrial cancer organoids and cell lines

Cell-based study · Endometrial cancer organoids REME9 and REME16; conventional cell lines AN3 CA and RL95-2 [3]

The BX-795 AUC bars were higher in REME9 and REME16 than in AN3 CA and RL95-2, consistent with weaker inhibition in the organoids over the plotted screen. This qualitative comparison has no reported BX-795-specific significance test.

PDK1-null control limits interpretation of BX-795-induced G2/M arrest

Cell-based study · Murine PDK1+/+ and PDK1−/− embryonic stem cells [2]

BX-795 increased the G2/M population in both wild-type and PDK1-null cells relative to DMSO. Persistence in knockout cells shows that this phenotype cannot be attributed solely to PDK1 inhibition in this model.

In Vivo Studies

In osimertinib-resistant TC386-OsiR lung-cancer PDXs, BX-795 plus osimertinib reduced tumor growth compared with either single agent. BX-795 alone did not differ from untreated control growth; the result supports a combination effect in this model. [4]

The combination reduced tumor growth compared with either monotherapy. BX-795 alone did not differ from untreated control growth; osimertinib alone slowed growth without regression. Figure 6 specifies five mice per group.
