Purpose
BI 893923 is a novel IGF1R/INSR tyrosine kinase inhibitor demonstrating anti-tumor efficacy and good tolerability. We aimed to characterize the relationship between BI 893923 plasma concentration, tumor biomarker modulation, tumor growth and hyperglycemia in mice using in silico modeling analyses.
Methods
In vitro molecular and cellular assays were used to demonstrate the potency and selectivity of BI 893923. Diverse in vitro DMPK assays were used to characterize the compound’s drug-like properties. Mice xenografted with human GEO tumors were treated with different doses of BI 893923 to demonstrate the compound’s efficacy, biomarker modulation and tolerability. PK/PD analyses were performed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling.
Results
BI 893923 demonstrated potent and selective molecular inhibition of the IGF1R and INSR and demonstrated attractive drug-like properties (permeability, bioavailability). BI 893923 dose-dependently reduced GEO tumor growth and demonstrated good tolerability, characterized by transient hyperglycemia and normal body weight gain. A population PK/PD model was developed, which established relationships between BI 893923 pharmacokinetics, hyperglycemia, pIGF1R reduction and tumor growth.
Conclusion
BI 893923 demonstrates molecular properties consistent with a highly attractive inhibitor of the IGF1R/INSR. A generic PK/PD model was developed to support preclinical drug development and dose finding in mice.
