Obatoclax (GX15-070) is a novel BH3 mimetic pan Bcl- 2 inhibitor. The clinically studied formulation is as obatoclax mesylate (Box 1), a salt. It is only under study as an intravenous preparation. It functions to block BH3-mediated binding of Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, Mcl-1 and A1 to Bax and Bak. Bax and Bak thus are unopposed and able to dimerize to allow initiation of intrinsic apoptosis. Preclinically, obatoclax has been shown to reverse inhibition of Bax or Bak by Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, Bcl-w and Mcl-1. Obatoclax was discovered by Gemin X, which was acquired by Cephalon, which has since been acquired by Teva Pharmaceuticals. Obatoclax had been in phase III clinical trials by Gemin X Biotechnologies (subsidiary of Teva) for the treatment of non-small lung cancer (NSCLC). The compound received orphan drug designation in the U.S. in 2004 for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, Teva discontinued the development of obatoclax in 2013.
