Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Birinapant is a small molecule peptidomimetic of SMAC (second mitochondrial-derived activator of caspases) that selectively targets IAPs (inhibitors of apoptosis) and inhibits their activity. The compound effectively turns off NF-κB pro-survival signalling and synergises with pro-apoptotic ligands (eg TNFα and TRAIL) to direct cells towards the caspase-dependent pro-apoptotic pathway [1-4]. Birinapant exhibits somewhat selective binding activity for cellular inhibitor of apoptosis 1 (cIAP1) compared to cIAP2. Birinapant also antagonizes the function of XIAP (X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis) which permits activation of the caspases which terminate the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis pathways.
