MK-4101 is a novel SMO antagonist of the Hedgehog Pathway. MK-4101 targets the Hh pathway in tumor cells, showing the maximum inhibitory effect on Gli1 MK-4101 also induced deregulation of cell cycle and block of DNA replication in tumors. MK-4101 inhibits Hh signaling both in a reporter gene assay in an engineered mouse cell line (Gli_Luc) with IC50 = 1.5 µM and in human KYSE180 oesophageal cancer cells with an IC50 = 1 µM.
MK-4101 was highly efficacious against primary medulloblastoma and BCC developing in the cerebellum and skin of Ptch1(+/-) mice. MK-4101 could be administered orally, showing a good bioavailability (F ≥ 87 %) with low-to-moderate plasma clearance in mice and rats. Moreover, it was well absorbed, and mainly excreted into the bile.
