IC50:对L1210\CCRF-CEM和GC3/M TK细胞系的IC50分别为1.0\0.81和1.0 μM.

胸苷酸合成酶(TS)是合成2'-脱氧胸苷-5'-单磷酸的关键酶,2'-脱氧胸苷-5'-单磷酸是用于DNA生物合成的必需前体.因此,该酶是癌症化疗的关键靶标.Nolatrexed (AG-337)是一种非经典胸苷酸合成酶YZ剂.

体外实验:Nolatrexed是依据TS分子模型和叶酸结合位点的X射线晶体学数据设计的.它是一种非经典的TSYZ剂,缺乏末端谷氨酸侧链,在生理pH下不带电荷.Nolatrexed进入细胞不需要特定的运输机制,进入细胞后,不是叶酰聚谷氨酸合成酶的底物[1].

在体实验:使用nolatrexedZLBu25TK肿瘤异种移植裸鼠,观察到其抗肿瘤活性时间依赖性增加[1].

临床试验:I期临床研究表明,给予肿瘤患者连续静脉内输注800 mg/m2/d 的Nolatrexed超过5天具有安全性,给药时间与抗肿瘤效应相关[2].
