Exatecan (DX-8951) is a nonprodrug camptothecin (CPT) derivative, exhibits significant topoisomerase I inhibition [1]. Exatecan (DX-8951) inhibited topoisomerase I with IC50 of 2.2 µM (0.975 µg/ml) [2].
Exatecan (DX-8951) and SN-38 inhibited topoisomerase activity with IC50 values of 0.82 and 2.3 µg/mL, respectively, topoisomerase I was obtained from SUIT-2 cells [3]. Exatecan (DX-8951)(20 ng/ml) induced DNA fragmentation. In an extract from treated SUIT-2 cells, about 60% of DNA was fragmented at the Exatecan (DX-8951) concentration of 20 ng/ml. Exatecan (DX-8951)(0.05 µg/ml, 24 h ) induced the specific features of apoptosis, namely chromatin condensation, nuclear fragmentation and cytoplasmic vacuolation were apparent in SUIT-2 cells [3].
Exatecan (DX-8951) has shown activity in vivo against a wide range of human tumor xenografts in nude mice, including gastric, pancreatic, colon, breast, ovary, and lung tumors [4]. Exatecan (DX-8951) suppressed the growth of human gastric adenocarcinoma SC-6 xenografted into nude mice. When mice were treated i.v. with Exatecan (DX-8951) three times at 4-day intervals, significant inhibition of tumor growth was observed over a wide dose range (3.325 mg/kg to 50 mg/kg of total dose) without toxic death. Its antitumor activity was dependent on the total dose, and at the highest dose of 50 mg/kg, the tumor growth inhibition rate was 92% [2].

Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | 32 malignant cell lines |
Preparation Method | Thus 500-20,000 cells/well in 150 u1 of medium were plated in 96-well flat-bottomed microplates and grown for 24h (P388, CCRF-CEM and K562 cells for 4h), the Exatecan (DX-8951) (in 50 µl medium/well), or the medium alone as a control was added, and the cells were cultured for an additional 3 days. Then calculated Growth inhibition of 50% (GI50) . |
Reaction Conditions | Different concentrations for 24 h |
Applications | Exatecan (DX-8951) showed strong antiproliferating activity,and the mean GI50 values against breast cancers colon cancers, stomach cancers, and lung cancers were 2.02 ng/ml, 2.92 ng/ml, 1.53 ng/ml, and 0.877 ng/ml respectively. |
Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Male 6-week-old BALB/c-nu/nu nude mice |
Preparation Method | The human tumor lines inoculated s.c. into nude mice and maintained as solid tumors. Various human tumors maintained in nude mice were excised and |
Dosage form | 50 mg/kg, i.v. |
Applications | The q4d×4 schedule more readily caused the regressive effects of Exatecan (DX-8951) compared with the q7d×3, and a schedule of q4d×3 more frequently permitted regrowth of tumors than did the q4d×4 schedule. |

General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |
