Biological Activity
SB 939 is an HDAC inhibitor that inhibits HDAC1 (IC50 = 49 nM), HDAC3 (IC50 = 43 nM), HDAC4 (IC50 = 56nM), HDAC5 (IC50 = 47 nM), HDAC9 (IC50 = 70 nM), HDAC10 (IC50 = 40 nM). Only poorly inhibits HDACs 6 or 7 (Kis = 247 and 104 nM, respectively). Prevents proliferation of ovarian (A2780), colon (COLO 205 and HCT-116), and prostate cancer (PC-3) cell lines at IC50 values of 0.48, 0.56, 0.48, and 0.34 µM, respectively.

Background
Pracinostat (SB939) is an orally bioavailable, small-molecule histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor with potential antineoplastic activity. Pracinostat inhibits HDACs, which may result in the accumulation of highly acetylated histones. It is a pan-HDAC inhibitor, inhibiting all HDAC isozymes except HDAC6 and HDAC7.
