PRLX-93936 is an analog of erastin (Item No. 17754) that has antitumor activity.1 It inhibits the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) signaling pathway under hypoxic conditions (IC50 = 0.09 μM in a cell-based reporter assay).2 PRLX-93936 (1 μM) also inhibits hypoxia-induced increases in HIF-1α expression in ME-180 cervical cancer cells. It inhibits the growth of HT-1080 fibrosarcoma, OVCAR-5 ovarian cancer, BJELR tumorigenic primary fibroblast, and PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells with IC50 values of less than 100 nM.1 PRLX-93936 inhibits tumor growth in PANC-1 and HT-1080 xenograft models when administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg and induces tumor regression when administered at a dose of 100 mg/kg.
