product name Taladegib (LY2940680)


Description: Taladegib (also known as LY2940680) binds to the Smoothened (Smo) receptor and potently inhibits Hedgehog (Hh) signaling. Taladegib binds mostly to extracelluar loops and has a different functioning site with the reported Smo receptor inhibitor SANT-1 which binds to 7TM. LY2940680 inhibits cancer growth in cell lines containing a mutation in the gene encoding Smoothened that researchers had previously observed in patient with cancer who developed resistance to vismodegib.

In Vitro

In vitro activity: LY2940680 inhibits cancer growth in cell lines containing a mutation in the gene encoding Smoothened that researchers had previously observed in patient with cancer who developed resistance to vismodegib.


Kinase Assay:


Cell Assay: When tested with cell lines containing a mutation in the gene encoding Smoothened that researchers had previously observed in patient with cancer who developed resistance to vismodegib, LY2940680 inhibited cell proliferation.

In Vivo LY2940680 has excellent pharmacokinetic properties in rodent and non-rodent species. LY2940680 administrated orally treats Ptch+/- p53-/- transgenic mice which spontaneously develop medulloblastoma, produces remarkable efficacy and significantly improves their survival. LY2940680 reveals rapid kinetics of anti-tumor activity through magnetic resonance imaging of these mice, and LY2940680 induces Caspase-3 activity and reduces proliferation by immunohistochemistry analysis of medulloblastoma tumors. LY2940680 inhibits Hh regulated gene expression in the subcutaneous xenograft tumor stroma and produces significant anti-tumor activity.
