The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway is a major determinant of cell cycling and proliferation. Its deregulation, by activation or transforming mutations of the p110 alpha subunit, is associated with the development of many cancers. 2-(1H-Indazol-4-yl)-6-(4-methanesulfonyl-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4-morpholin-4-yl-thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine (GDC-0941) is a novel small molecule inhibitor of PI3K currently being evaluated in the clinic as an anticancer agent. The objectives of these studies were to characterize the relationships between GDC-0941 plasma concentrations and tumor reduction in MCF7.1 breast cancer xenografts and to evaluate the association between the tumor pharmacodynamic biomarker [phosphorylated (p) Akt and phosphorylated pro-line-rich Akt substrate of 40 kDa (pPRAS40)] responses and antitumor efficacy. MCF7.1 tumor-bearing mice were treated for up to 3 weeks with GDC-0941 at various doses (12.5-200 mg/kg) and dosing schedules (daily to weekly). An indirect response model fitted to tumor growth data indicated that the GDC-0941 plasma concentration required for tumor stasis was approximately 0.3 mu M. The relationship between GDC-0941 plasma concentrations and inhibition of pAkt and pPRAS40 in tumor was also investigated after a single oral dose of 12.5, 50, or 150 mg/kg. An indirect response model was fitted to the inhibition of Akt and PRAS40 phosphorylation data and provided IC(50) estimates of 0.36 and 0.29 mu M for pAkt and pPRAS40, respectively. The relationship between pAkt inhibition and tumor volume was further explored using an integrated pharmacokinetic biomarker tumor growth model, which showed that a pAkt inhibition of at least 30% was required to achieve stasis after GDC-0941 treatment of the MCF7.1 xenograft.
