In 165 cell lines, GSK2879552 inhibits the growth of 9/28 small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) lines and 20/29 AML lines ranged from 40% to 100%. The subset of SCLC lines and primary samples that undergo growth inhibition in response to GSK2879552 exhibit DNA hypomethylation of a signature set of probes.
In vivo
In SCLC xenograft bearing mice, GSK2879552 (1.5 mg/kg, p.o.) demonstrates tumor growth inhibition by 17%-83%.
