Summary

Indoximod (1-Methyl-D-tryptophan) is an orally active indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase ( IDO ) pathway inhibitor. Indoximod acts as a Trp mimetic in regulating mTOR . Indoximod is an immunometabolic adjuvant used for the research of cancer [1] [2] .


IC50 & Target

IDO

19 μM (Ki)


In Vitro

The IDO inhibitor 1-methyl-tryptophan exists in two stereoisomers with potentially different biological properties. The L isomer is the more potent inhibitor of IDO activity using the purified enzyme and in HeLa cell–based assays. However, the D isomer is significantly more effective in reversing the suppression of T cells created by IDO-expressing dendritic cells. The L isomer of 1-methyl-tryptophan functioned as a competitive inhibitor (K i =19 μM), whereas the d isomer is much less effective. The DL mixture is intermediate, with a K i of 35 μM [1] .

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.


In Vivo

The D isomer is more efficacious as an anticancer agent in chemo-immunotherapy regimens using NSC-26271, NSC 125973, or LY 188011, when tested in mouse models of transplantable melanoma and transplantable and autochthonous breast cancer. The D isomer of 1-methyl-tryptophan specifically targets the IDO gene because the antitumor effect of d-1-methyl-tryptophan is completely lost in mice with a disruption of the IDO gene (IDO-knockout mice). Oral administration of dl-1-methyl-tryptophan in combination with NSC 125973 can elicit regression of autochthonous breast tumors [1] .
