Description:	XL228 is a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor with IC50s of 5, 3.1, 1.6, 6.1, 2 nM for Bcr-Abl, Aurora A, IGF-1R, Src and Lyn, respectively.
In Vivo:	Single-dose pharmacodynamics studies demonstrate a potent effect of XL228 on BCR-ABL signaling in K562 xenograft tumors. Phosphorylation of BCR-ABL is decreased by 50% at XL228 plasma concentrations of 3.5 μM; a similar decrease in phospho-STAT5 occurred at 0.8 μM plasma concentration[3].
In Vitro:	XL228 shows a broad pattern of protein kinase inhibition, including the tyrosine kinases IGF1R, SRC, ABL, FGFR1‐3, and ALK and the serine/threonine kinases Aurora A and Aurora B. A panel of kinase inhibitors including XL228 is profiled against a series of cancer cell lines with known alterations in major signaling pathways. Approximately 30% of the lines demonstrate XL228 IC50 values of <100nM in viability assays, including many lines with characterized ALK or FGFR mutations or amplifications. XL228 eliminates the phosphorylation of Aurora A and B at concentrations above 10 nM. Short‐term treatment of HeLa cells leads to disruption of mitotic spindle formation, with the majority of mitotic cells exhibiting a unipolar spindle and disorganized chromosomes[2]. It displays low nanomolar biochemical activity against wild type Abl kinase (Ki=5 nM), as well as the T315I form of Abl resistant to imatinib and dasatinib (Ki=1.4 nM). XL228 inhibits phosphorylation of BCR-ABL and its substrate STAT5 in K562 cells in vitro with IC50s of 33 and 43 nM, respectively[3].
