Merestinib dihydrochloride (LY2801653 dihydrochloride) is a type-II ATP competitive, slow-off inhibitor of MET tyrosine kinase with a dissociation constant (K_i) of 2 nM. IC50 & Target: Ki: 2 nM (c-Met)^[1] In Vitro: Merestinib demonstrates effects on MET pathway-dependent cell scattering and cell proliferation. The mean IC₅₀ value (n=6 determinations) of Merestinib for inhibition of MET auto-phosphorylation in HGF-stimulated H460 cells is 35.2+/-6.9 nM and the IC₅₀ for MET auto-phosphorylation in S114 cells is 59.2 nM. Transfection with the MET variants confers growth-factor independence and treatment with Merestinib inhibits growth of these MET variant clones with an IC₅₀ ranging from 3-fold more potent (V1092I) to approximately 6-fold less potent (L1195V) compare with the growth inhibition of cells with the MET wild-type sequence^[1]. Merestinib (2, 5, and 10 uM) reduces the number of viable TFK-1 and SZ-1 cells in a dose and time dependent manner, and significant inhibits wound healing for TFK-1 and SZ-1 cell lines. Merestinib inhibits cell invasion in TFK-1 and SZ-1 cells in a concentration dependent manner^[2]. In Vivo: Merestinib (LY2801653) demonstrates anti-tumor effects in MET amplified (MKN45), MET autocrine (U-87MG, and KP4) and MET over-expressed (H441) xenograft models; and in vivo vessel normalization effects. Merestinib (LY2801653) is a type-II ATP competitive, slow-off inhibitor of MET tyrosine kinase with a pharmacodynamic residence time (K_off) of 0.00132 min^-1 and t_1/2 of 525 min. Merestinib (LY2801653) treatment inhibits MET phosphorylation with a composite TED50 (50 % target inhibition dose) of 1.2 mg/kg and a composite TED90 (90 % target inhibition dose) of 7.4 mg/kg^[1]. Merestinib (LY2801653) (20 mg/kg) reduces TFK-1 tumor growth significantly relative to vehicle control. Merestinib (LY2801653) inhibits the growth of intra- and extrahepatic CCC xenograft tumors^[2].
