説明

Afatinib dimaleate was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2013 for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Specifically, it was approved for patients presenting with metastatic NSCLC tumors which contain epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon deletions or exon 21 mutations. Afatinib dimaleate is a covalent inhibitor of ErbB tyrosine kinases (tyk), which downregulates ErbB signaling by irreversible binding of EGFR tyk binding sites. While no manufacturing route has been disclosed to date, the most scalable published route likely derives from two Boehringer Ingelheim patents.

使用

Afatinib Dimaleate is a salt of Afatinib {BIBW 2992), an aminocrotonylamino-substituted quinazoline derivative used for treating cancer and diseases of the respiratory tract, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, bile duct, and gallbladder. An anilino-quinazoline that irreversibly inhibits EGFR and HER2 kinase activity.

定義

ChEBI: Afatinib dimaleate is a maleate salt obtained by combining afatinib with two molar equivalents of maleic acid. Used for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. It has a role as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and an antineoplastic agent. It contains an afatinib.

生物活性

Afatinib dimaleate is an orally bioavailable and irreversible dual-specific inhibitor of the ErbB family (EGFR and HER2). IC50 are 0.4, 0.5, 10, 14, 1 nM for EGFR^L858R, EGFR^wt, EGFR ^L858R/T790M, ErbB2 (HER2) and ErbB4 (HER4), respectively. Afatinib dimaleate is available for cancer (esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and gastric cancer) studies.
