    Purpose: RXDX-107 is a dodecanol alkyl ester of bendamustine encapsulated in human serum albumin (HSA) to form nanoparticles. The anti-tumor activity of bendamustine in solid tumor malignancies has been less impressive, partially due to short half-life. RXDX-107 was designed to extend the half-life and improve tissue biodistribution over bendamustine, which may result in superior efficacy and tolerability in patients with solid tumors. Experimental Design: The anti-tumor activity of RXDX-107 was measured in cellular anti-proliferation assay, cell-line derived xenograft (CDX) models and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The mechanism of action and pharmacodynamics properties were measured by comet assay. The tumor accumulation was measured by a novel LC-MS/MS method. Results: .. View More»
