Numidargistat dihydrochloride is a potent and orally-bioavailable inhibitor of arginase, with IC50s of 86 and 296 nM for recombinant human arginase 1 and 2, respectively. Numidargistat dihydrochloride inhibits native rginase 1 (Arg1) in human granulocyte, erythrocyte, and hepatocyte lysate with IC50s of 178 nM, 116 nM and 158 nM, respectively, and blocks Arg1 in cancer patient plasma (IC50, 122 nM). Numidargistat dihydrochloride also exhibits potent inhibitory activity against arginase in human HepG2, K562 cell lines and primary human hepatocytes with IC50s of 32, 139, 210 μM, respectively. Numidargistat dihydrochloride shows no effect on NOS. In addition, Numidargistat dihydrochloride is not directly cytotoxic to murine cancer cell lines.
