AM-8735 is a potent and selective MDM2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 25 nM.
AM-8735 displays substantial growth inhibition of wild-type p53 cells (IC50=63 nM) and no growth inhibition of p53-deficient cells (IC50>25 μM). AM-8735exhibits a dose-dependent increase of p21 mRNA, a direct transcriptional readout of p53 activity, in HCT116 p53wt cells (IC50=160 nM)[1].
AM-8735 also demonstrates significant time and concentration dependent p21 mRNA induction in vivo in a pharmacodynamic assay in SJSA-1 osteosarcoma tumors. AM-8735 shows excellent antitumor activity in the SJSA-1 osteosarcoma xenograft model with an ED50 of 41 mg/kg[1].
