Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%propylene glycol 55%ddH2O
10.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 200 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of propylene glycol, mix evenly to clarify it; then continue to add 550 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Ceralasertib (AZD6738) is an orally active, and selective ATR kinase inhibitor with IC50 of 1 nM. Phase 1/2.
Targets
ATR [1]
(Cell-free assay)
1 nM
In vitro

In four Kras mutant cell lines: H23, H460, A549, and H358, AZD6738 inhibits ATR kinase activity and impairs cell viability. In ATM-deficient H23 cells, AZD6738 strongly synergizes with NSC 119875 to induce rapid cell death. [1] In p53 or ATM defective cells, AZD6738 treatment results in replication fork stalls and accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage, resulting in cell death by mitotic catastrophe. [2]
In vivo

In nude mice bearing H460 and H23 tumors, AZD6738 (50 mg/kg, p.o.) results in tumor growth inhibition (TGI), and the the combination with NSC 119875 causes rapid regression of ATM-deficient H23 tumors. [1] In nude mice bearing LoVo xenografts, a combination of AZD6738 (50 mg/kg) + IR (2 Gy) avoids toxicity while still maintaining efficacy. [3]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[1]
  • Cell lines

    H23, H460, A549, and H358 cells

  • Concentrations

    ~30 μM

  • Incubation Time

    48 h

  • Method

    Cells are treated in white walled, clear bottom 96-well plates with the indicated doses of AZD6738, NSC 119875, LY-188011, or combination for 48 h. ATP levels are assessed as surrogate measure of viability is assessed using the CellTiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay and Safire2 plate reader. Raw data are corrected for background luminescence prior to further analysis. For AZD6738 treatment, log dose response curves are generated in GraphPad Prism 6 by nonlinear regression (log(inhibitor) vs. response with variable slope) of log-transformed (x = log(x)) data normalized to the mean of untreated controls. GI50 values, defined as the dose X at which Y = 50%, were extrapolated from dose response curves.
Animal Study:

[1]
  • Animal Models

    Female athymic nude mice bearing H23 or H460 xenografts

  • Dosages

    25 or 50 mg/kg

  • Administration

    p.o.
