Abstract Text Aurora A kinase (AURKA), a member of the serine/threonine kinase family, plays a critical role in cell division, and it is widely overexpressed in a variety of tumors including glioblastoma (GBM). Alisertib (MLN8237) is an orally administered selective AURKA inhibitor with potent antiproliferative activity, currently undergoing clinical testing in different tumor types. In vitro evaluation of alisertib against the primary GBM lines, GBM6, GBM10, GBM12 and GBM39 showed significant antitumor activity with IC50s ranging between 30 and 95 nM. Orthotopic xenografts of GBM10 and the bevacizumab resistant lines GBM6 and GBM39 were established by implantating 3 × 105 cells in the caudate nucleus of nude mice; animals were randomized to treatment with either alisertib 30 mg/kg/day or vehicle. In all three models, treatment with alisertib resulted in a statistically significant prolongation of survival (p < 0.0001). In addition, alisertib administration in these mice decreased phosphorylated aurora-A, induced mitotic arrest and significantly decreased histone H3 phosphorylation in tumors. In conclusion, alisertib displays significant antitumor activity against primary GBM lines and xenografts, including patient derived GBM lines resistant to bevacizumab; these data support clinical translation in GBM.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
