Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20607239

MLN8054 is a reversible, ATP competitive inhibitor of recombinant Aurora A, developed by Millennium Pharmaceuticals. MLN8054 was tested in phase I clinical trials against advanced solid tumors. Reversible somnolence probably due to off-target inhibition of alpha-1 subunit of GABA-A receptor was dose limiting and prevented achievement of plasma concentrations predicted necessary for target modulation.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Plasma/brain AUC ratio in mice was 0.22. In clinical trials MLN8054 induced reversible somnolence probably due to off-target inhibition of alpha-1 subunit of GABA-A receptor

Sample Use Guides

In clinical trials against advanced solid tumors MLN8054 was administered orally in multiple divided daily doses for 7 days to 21 consecutive days. A 14-day recovery period followed each dosing period, regardless of its duration. MLN8054 was supplied in capsules of 5 mg or 25 mg. MLN8054 will be given on an empty stomach. Patients were instructed to take nothing by mouth except for water and prescribed medications for 2 hours before and 1 hour after each dose.
Route of Administration: Oral
Recombinant murine Aurora A protein was expressed in Sf9 cells and purified with GST affinity chromatography. The peptide substrate for Aurora A was conjugated with biotin (Biotin-GLRRASLG). Aurora A kinase (5 nM) was assayed in 50 mM Hepes (pH 7.5)/10 mM MgCl2/5 mM DTT/0.05% Tween 20/2 μM peptide substrate/3.3 μCi/ml [γ-33P]ATP at 2 μM by using Image FlashPlates (Perkin–Elmer).
