Background:

GSK2656157 is a highly selective inhibitor of protein kinase R-like ER kinase (PERK) with IC50 value of 0.9nM [1].

GSK2656157 is highly selective for PERK enzyme against a panel of 300 kinases. In the BxPC3 pancreatic tumor cell line, treatment of GSK2656157 causes an inhibition of PERK and decreases in the downstream substrates, including phospho-eIF2α, ATF4 and CHOP. The inhibition of PERK results in effects on de novo protein synthesis as shown in BxPC3 cells [1].

In vivo assay shows that a single 50 mg/kg oral dose of GSK2656157 can completely inhibit the Thr980 phosphorylation of endogenous pancreatic PERK in mice. Furthermore, GSK2656157 causes dose-dependent inhibition of tumor growth in human tumor xenograft models of pancreatic cancer (BxPC3, HPAC and Capan2) and multiple myeloma (NCI-H929). Among these cancers, the Capan2 tumor is most sensitive [1].
