Prexasertib dimesylate (LY2606368 dimesylate) is a selective, ATP-competitive second-generation checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1) inhibitor with a Ki of 0.9 nM and an IC50 of <1 nM. Prexasertib dimesylate inhibits CHK2 (IC50=8 nM) and RSK1 (IC50=9 nM). Prexasertib dimesylate causes double-stranded DNA breakage and replication catastrophe resulting in apoptosis. Prexasertib dimesylate shows potent anti-tumor activity[1][2]. | [in vivo]
Prexasertib dimesylate (LY2606368 dimesylate; 1-10 mg/kg; SC; twice daily for 3 days, rest 4 days; for three cycles) causes growth inhibition in tumor xenografts[1].
Prexasertib dimesylate (15 mg/kg; SC) causes CHK1 inhibition in the blood and the phosphorylation of both H2AX (S139) and RPA2 (S4/S8)[1].
| Animal Model: | Female CD-1 nu-/nu- mice (26-28 g) with Calu-6 cells[1] | | Dosage: | 1, 3.3, or 10 mg/kg | | Administration: | SC; twice daily for 3 days, rest 4 days; for three cycles | | Result: | Caused statistically significant tumor growth inhibition (up to 72.3%).

| Animal Model: | Female CD-1 nu-/nu- mice (26-28 g) with Calu-6 cells[1] | | Dosage: | 15 mg/kg (Pharmacokinetic Analysis) | | Administration: | SC (200 μL) | | Result: | CHK1 was 7 ng/mL at 12 hours and 3 ng/mL by 24 hours in plasma exposures.
Phosphorylation of both H2AX (S139) and RPA2 (S4/S8) was detectable at 4 hours, showing the rapid occurrence of DNA damage.
