Optical Activity UNSPECIFIED

Alvespimycin (17-desmethoxy-17-N,N-dimethylaminoethylamino-geldanamycin) (17-DMAG; NSC 707545) is an inhibitor of the molecular chaperone heat shock protein HSP90. Alvespimycin is a derivative of antineoplastic benzoquinone antibiotic geldanamycin. Alvespimycin binds to HSP90, a chaperone protein that aids in the assembly, maturation and folding of proteins. Subsequently, the function of Hsp90 is inhibited, leading to the degradation and depletion of its client proteins such as kinases and transcription factors involved with cell cycle regulation and signal transduction. Alvespimycin was studied in clinical trials for the treatment of solid tumors and hematologic malignancies however its development was discontinued.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Alvespimycin (17-DMAG) is brain penetrant and CNS active in animals. No human data available.

Sample Use Guides

Phase 1 study. Patients with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) received escalating doses of intravenous alvespimycin (8-32 mg/m(2)), twice weekly, for 2 of 3 weeks. Alvespimycin was well tolerated; the maximum-tolerated dose was 24 mg/m(2) twice weekly. Common toxicities included neutropenic fever, fatigue, nausea and diarrhea. Cardiac DLTs occurred at 32 mg/m(2) (elevated troponin and myocardial infarction). Pharmacokinetics revealed linear increases in C(max) and area under the curve (AUC) from 8 to 32 mg/m(2) and minor accumulation upon repeated doses. Recommended phase 2 dose is 24 mg/m(2).
Route of Administration: Intravenous
One hepatic cell line (L02) and two HCC cell lines (Huh7 and HepG2) were heated at 42 °C for 0, 0.5 or 4 h with or without 100 nM alvespimycin (17-DMAG).
