About CK2 and CX-4945

Protein kinase CK2 has emerged as a validated drug target for cancer therapy due to its dysregulation andoverexpression in tumors and its regulatory roles in cell cycle control, DNA damage repair, and in the PI3K/Akt, JAK/STAT, IL-6 and NF-κB signaling cascades.  These pathways have specific relevance in multiple myeloma progression and high levels of CK2 overexpression characterize the disease.  CX-4945 is a potent and highly selective, small molecule inhibitor of CK2 and is currently under evaluation as an orally administered single agent in a Phase I clinical trial in patients with solid tumors (including breast, prostate, pancreatic cancers and inflammatory breast cancer) and a separate Phase I trial in patients with multiple myeloma has recently been initiated.  During the solid tumor trial, CX-4945 has established favorable pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and safety profiles.  Measurement of mechanism and tumor-related biomarkers in patients reveal that CX-4945 hits the CK2 target and down-modulates the PI3K/Akt pathway.  The pharmacokinetic and biomarker data demonstrate that CX-4945 is achieving pharmacologically active levels in plasma and in tumor cells and elicits a clear pharmacodynamic response in humans.  Together, the findings establish CX-4945 as a promising therapeutic agent for targeting multiple cancers.
