- Abstract
- Background : Medullary and papillary thyroid carcinomas
are often associated with oncogenic activation of the RET
tyrosine kinase. We evaluated whether the biaryl urea BAY
43-9006, which is known to inhibit several other tyrosine
kinases, blocks RET kinase function and oncogenic activity.
Methods : We examined BAY 43-9006 activity against oncogenic
RET in vitro and in cellular RET signaling in oncogenic
RET-transfected NIH3T3 fi broblasts by using immunocomplex
kinase assays and immunoblotting with phospho-specifi c
antibodies. The effects of BAY 43-9006 on proliferation of
human TPC1 and TT thyroid carcinoma cells, which harbor
spontaneous oncogenic RET alleles, and on RAT1 fi broblasts
transformed with oncogenic RET mutants, including mutants
that are resistant to other chemotherapeutic agents, were
determined using growth curves and fl ow cytometry. Growth
of TT cell - derived xenograft tumors in athymic mice treated
orally with BAY 43-9006 or with vehicle was measured. All
statistical tests were two-sided. Results : BAY 43-9006 inhibited
oncogenic RET kinase activity at half-maximal inhibitory
concentrations (IC 50 s) of 50 nM or less in NIH3T3 cells.
It also arrested the growth of NIH3T3 and RAT1 fi broblasts
transformed by oncogenic RET and of thyroid carcinoma
cells that harbor spontaneous oncogenic RET alleles. Moreover,
BAY 43-9006 inhibited the growth of cells carrying RET
V804L (IC 50 = 110 nM, 95% confi dence interval [CI] = 88 to
133 nM) or RET V804M (IC 50 = 147 nM, 95% CI = 123 nM
to 170 nM), both mutants that are resistant to anilinoquinazolines
and pyrazolopyrimidines. After 3 weeks of oral
treatment with BAY 43-9006 (60 mg/kg/day), the volume of
TT cell xenografts ( n = 7) was reduced from 72.5 to 44 mm 3
(difference = 28.5 mm 3 , 95% CI = 7 mm 3 to 50 mm 3 ), whereas
in vehicle-treated mice ( n = 7), mean tumor volume increased
to 408 mm 3 (difference = 320 mm 3 , 95% CI = 180 mm 3 to 460
mm 3 ; untreated versus treated, P =.02). This inhibition paralleled
a decrease in RET phosphorylation. Conclusions : BAY
43-9006 is a powerful inhibitor of the RET kinase. Its potential
as a therapeutic tool for RET-positive thyroid tumors,
including those expressing V804 mutations merits study. (literal)
