ABSTRACT

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant primary brain cancer. Despite aggressive treatments currently there is no cure for GBM. Many challenges should be considered for the development of new therapeutical agents for glioblastoma, including appropriate target selectivity and pharmacokinetics. Several mutations and alterations of key cellular pathways including tyrosine kinases (TKs) are involved in malignant transformation and tumor progression. Thus, the targeting of multiple pathways and the development of innovative combination drug regimens is expected to yield improved therapies. Moreover, the abilities to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) reaching effective concentrations in brain and to remain into this tissue avoiding the effects of efflux transporters are also critical issues in the development of new therapeutics for GBM. CR13626 is a novel brain penetrant small molecule able to potently inhibit in vitro the activity of EGFR, VEGFR2 (aka KDR), Fyn, Yes, Lck, HGK (aka MAP4K4) and RET kinases relevant for GBM development. CR13626 shows good oral bioavailability (72%) and relevant brain penetration (brain/plasma ratio of 1.4). In an orthotopic xenograft glioblastoma mouse model, oral treatment with CR13626 results in a time-dependent reduction of tumor growth, leading to a significant increase of animal survival. The unique properties of CR13626 warrant its further investigation as a potential new drug candidate in glioblastoma.
