Simotaxel (MST-997) is a semi-synthetic, orally bioavailable, third-generation taxane derivative and microtubule-stabilizing agent, with potential antineoplastic activity. Simotaxel was being developed through a collaboration between Wyeth (later Pfizer) and Taxolog as a potential treatment for cancer. Upon administration, simotaxel binds to tubulin, promotes microtubule assembly and stabilization, and prevents microtubule depolymerization. This results in G2/M arrest, apoptosis and the inhibition of cell proliferation in susceptible tumor cells. This agent is a poor substrate for P-glycoprotein-related drug resistance mechanisms; therefore, it may be useful for treating multi-drug resistant tumors. MST-997 is more potent than paclitaxel and docetaxel and overcomes paclitaxel and docetaxel resistance in certain tumor cell types. Simotaxel is under investigation in clinical trial NCT00088647 (study evaluating MST-997 in advanced malignant solid tumors).

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

Nude mice bearing small-established Lox melanoma xenografts were treated with 10 to 120 mg/kg Simotaxel (MST-997) given as a single i.v. dose in Intralipid on day 1 (defined henceforth as the day after tumor weight off 100 mg was achieved). A clear dose response was observed with a maximum efficacious dose of 100 mg/kg and the minimum efficacious dose of 10 mg/kg. No tumors were detected in 9 of 10animals receiving the 100 and 70 mg/kg doses up to 56 days after drug administration and as such were defined as cured. The MTD was 120 mg/kg.

Route of Administration: Intravenous

In Vitro Use Guide

Simotaxel (MST-997) induced microtubule polymerization (EC50 = 0.9 umol/L) and bundling, resulting in G2-M arrest and apoptosis. In addition, MST-997 was a potent inhibitor of paclitaxel- and docetaxel-sensitive tumor cell lines that did not have detectable P-glycoprotein (IC50 = 1.8 +/- 1.5 nmol/L). 0.3 to 30 nmol/L MST-997 caused an accumulation of phosphorylated nucleolin, a selective marker for cells arrested in G2-M in intact KB-3-1 cells in vitro.
