ASX-173 is an orally active inhibitor of asparagine synthetase (ASNS) (IC50 = 0.113 μM, Ki = 0.4 nM). ASX-173 enhances the anticancer activity of L-asparaginase (ASNase). ASX-173 disrupts nucleotide synthesis and induces leukemia cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and autophagy in leukemia cells in combination with ASNase. ASX-173 slows the growth of OCI-AML2 xenografts in combination with ASNase. ASX-173 is indicated for the study of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, colorectal cancer, and other cancers.
