Abstract

Serdemetan (JNJ-26854165) is a novel tryptamine compound with antiproliferative activity in various p53 wild-type (WT) tumor cell lines. We investigated its potential as radiosensitizer using four human cancer cell lines: H460, A549, p53-WT-HCT116, and p53-null-HCT116. Serdemetan inhibited clonogenic survival in all cell lines, but in a lower extent in p53-null-HCT116. In the combination studies, Serdemetan treatment at 0.25μM in H460 and at 5μM in A549 cells resulted in a sensitivity-enhancement ratio of 1.18 and 1.36, respectively. At 2Gy, surviving fractions were 0.72 and 0.97 for p53-WT HCT116 and p53-null cells exposed to 0.5μM of Serdemetan, respectively (p<0.05). Radiosensitization of H460 and A549 cells was associated with G2/M cell cycle arrest and with an increased expression of p53 and p21. In vivo, Serdemetan caused a greater than additive increase in tumor growth delay. The dose enhancement factor was 1.9 and 1.6 for H460 and A549 tumors, respectively. Serdemetan inhibited proliferation, capillary tube formation and migration of HMEC-1 cells. These effects were more marked concurrently with irradiation. These results in tumor and endothelial cells suggest that Serdemetan has potential as a radiosensitizer. Further investigations are warranted with regard to the molecular mechanisms underlying its actions and its dependency regarding p53 status.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
