Alobresib (GS-5829) is a BET bromodomain inhibitor, which represents a highly effective therapeutics agent against recurrent/chemotherapy resistant uterine serous carcinoma (USC) overexpressing c-Myc[1]. BET bromodomain[1]
Alobresib (0.1 nM-100 μM; 72 hours) inhibits cell proliferation in primary uterine serous carcinoma (USC) lines[1]. Cell Proliferation Assay[1] Cell Line: Primary uterine serous carcinoma (USC) lines ARK1 and ARK2 cell lines
Alobresib (10 and 20 mg/kg; oral; twice-daily; for 28 days) impaires USC-ARK2 xenograft tumor growth in female CB17/lcrHsd-Prkd/scid mice. Alobresib exhibits a significantly slower rate of tumor growth in mice, compared with vehicle control and to mice undergoing daily treatment with JQ1 (50 mg/kg/day i.p.)[1]. Alobresib (10 and 20 mg/kg; oral; twice-daily; for 28 days) is well tolerated with no clear impact on body weight compared with vehicle control[1]. Animal Model: Female CB17/lcrHsd-Prkd/scid mice (15-19 g) bearing USC-ARK2 tumors[1]
