Description：Palupiprant (E7046) is an orally bioavailable and specific EP4 antagonist, with IC50 of 13.5 nM and Ki of 23.14 nM. Palupiprant exhibits anti-tumor activities.

In Vitro：Palupiprant (E7046) reverses the immunosuppressive effects of PGE2 on activation and differentiation of human myeloid cells through selective EP4 antagonism[2].

In Vivo：In the CT-26 tumor model, the Palupiprant/RT combination causes the anti-tumor memory response of 9 animals. In the 4T1 model, the combination of Palupiprant and RT also produces significant better tumor growth inhibition activity compared with each treatment alone. The combination significantly improves survival by inhibiting the subsequent spontaneous lung metastasis of 4T1 tumors[1]. Palupiprant (150 mg/kg) inhibits the growth of multiple syngeneic tumor models. Blockade of EP4 signaling promotes anti-tumor DC differentiation and slows tumor growth in mice. Palupiprant treatment reduces the growth or even rejected established tumors in vivo in a manner dependent on both myeloid and CD8C T cells. Furthermore, co-administration of Palupiprant and E7777, an IL-2-diphtheria toxin fusion protein that preferentially kills Tregs, synergistically disrupts the myeloid and Treg immunosuppressive networks, resulting in effective and durable anti-tumor immune responses in mouse tumor models[2].

Animal Administration：For the tumor isograft efficacy studies, 6-week old female BALB/c mice are implanted with cancer cells: 1×105 CT26 or 4T1 cells or 8×105 H22 cells per mouse s.c., or 1×105 EMT6 cells in the mammary fat pad. C57BL/6 mice are implanted s.c. with 1×106 Pan02 cells per mouse, and A/J mice are implanted s.c. with 2-3 mm3 SAI/N tumor fragments. To investigate the role of T cells in the anti-tumor response, 6 week old female nude mice (which lack T cells) are injected s.c. with 1×105 CT26 cells. When tumors reach approximately 50-100 mm3, tumor-bearing mice are randomly assigned to vehicle or treatment groups, and treatment regimens begin. E7046 is administered per oral (p.o.) as a 100 or 150 mg/kg suspension in 0.5% MC, daily for 21 d (QDx21). For the combination studies, E7777 is administered intravenously (i.v.) at 2.5 mg/mouse in saline, as 2 to 3 doses injected one week apart (Q7Dx2-3). Tumor volumes and body weights are recorded 2-3 times a week. For comparison with current immunotherapies, in addition to vehicle control and E7046 C E7777 groups, mice are assigned to anti-PD1 antibodies or anti-mouse PD-1 C antimouse CTLA4 antibodies treatment groups. Anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies (1 mg/mL), are administered i.p. in 100 mL, 3 times 4 d apart (Q4Dx3) for a total of 300 mg each. Isotype controls are administered i.p. at 1 mg/mL to the control group. For the CD4CT and CD8CT lymphocyte depletion, antimouse CD4 or anti-mouse CD8 antibodies or their isotype controls are administered in 100 mL, i.p. at 2.5 mg/mL every 4 days, for a total of 4 injections per mouse (1 mg).

Cell Assay：Bone marrow (BM) cells are flushed from femurs of BALB/c mice using sterile CM. Freshly harvested (BM) cells (0.5×106) are differentiated in the presence of 20 ng/mL recombinant mouse GM-CSF, ±PGE2 (10 nM), at 37°C, for 8 d. CM C fresh GM-CSF ± PGE2 is changed on days 3 and 6. After in vitro differentiation, cells are analyzed by flow cytometry. For certain experiments, CT26, 4T1 cell supernatants, and/or EP1 (SC-57089), EP2 (ER-880696), EP3 (L-798106), or EP4 (E7046) antagonists at 1 mM, are added to the BM cells. To assess the effect of differentiated BM cells on T cell proliferation, mouse BM cells differentiated are co-cultured for 72 hours with anti-CD3/CD28 Dynabeadsstimulated and CFSE (1 mM)-stained T cells. T cell proliferation is assessed by CFSE dilution using flow cytometry.
