    Abstract:
    MBQ-167 is a dual inhibitor of the Rho GTPases Rac and Cdc42 that has shown promising results as an anti-cancer therapeutic at the preclinical stage. This drug has been tested in vitro and in vivo in metastatic breast cancer mouse models. The aim of this study is to develop a physiologically based pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PBPK-PD) model of MBQ-167 to predict tumor growth inhibition following intraperitoneal (IP) administration in mice bearing Triple Negative and HER2+ mammary tumors. PBPK and Simeoni tumor growth inhibition (TGI) models were developed using the Simcyp V19 Animal Simulator. Our developed PBPK framework adequately describes the time course of MBQ-167 in each of the mouse tissues (e.g., lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, spleen, plasma) and tumor, since the predicted results were consistent with the experimental data. The developed PBPK-PD model successfully predicts tumor shrinkage in HER2+ and triple-negative breast tumors after the intraperitoneal administration of 1 and 10 mg/kg body weight (BW) dose level of MBQ-167 three times a week. The findings from this study suggest that MBQ-167 has a higher net effect and potency inhibiting Triple Negative mammary tumor growth compared to HER2+ and that liver metabolism is the major route of elimination of this drug.
