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 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. |
