mTOR inhibitor-3 (Compound 8h) has high free plasma clearance in both mice (1818 mL/min/kg) and rats (1538 mL/min/kg in rat) ^[1]. mTOR inhibitor-3 (Compounds 12i) is selected for this study due to its potency, selectivity, and favorable mouse PK profile. Plasma levels of mTOR inhibitor-3 6 h following oral administration in PC3 tumor-bearing mice along with the fold decreases of phosphorylated mTORC1 and -2 substrates relative to time-matched vehicle controls. mTOR inhibitor-3 has moderate terminal elimination half-life (t_1/2=1.7 h for mouse(1 mg/kg, iv)). mTOR inhibitor-3 achieves tumor stasis at the highest 200 mg/kg/day dose examined, which appears to also be approaching the limit of tolerability for this molecule^[2].
