HL156A is a derivative of metformin and a potent oxidative phosphorylation inhibitor and AMP-activated protein kinase activating biguanide.[1] Certain types of cancer cells requires oxidative phosphorylation to survive. By targeting it, HL156A might help in improving anticancer therapy.[2] It is more potent than acadesine or metformin at activating AMP-activated protein kinase. It is synthesized by Hanall Biopharma.[3]
Medical uses
It is in phase 1 trial in patients with advanced solid tumor and lymphoma.[4] [5]
Pharmacology
Apart from AMP-activated protein kinase activation, it also inhibits expression and activation of insulin-like growth factor-1, protein kinase B, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), and extracellular signal-regulated kinases.
Research
It is researched in multiple conditions like liver and renal fibrosis,[6] cancer[7] [8] and drug resistance in cancer.[9] HL176OUT04, a drug with similar pharmacology, has been also developed.[10]
