Нератиниба малеат

Описание

Neratinib (HKI-272) is a pan-HER inhibitor, this irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor binds and inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of epidermal growth factor receptors, EGFR (or HER1), HER2 and HER4, which leads to reduced phosphorylation and activation of downstream signaling pathways.

Химические свойства

Neratinib maleate (NM) is an off-white to yellow powder with pKas of 7.65 and 4.66. The molecular formula for neratinib maleate is C30H29ClN6O3·C4H4O4, and the molecular weight is 673.11 Daltons. The chemical name is (E)-N-{4-[3-chloro-4-(pyridin-2-yl methoxy)anilino]-3-cyano-7-ethoxyquinolin-6-yl}-4-(dimethylamino)but-2-enamide maleate. The solubility of neratinib maleate increases dramatically as neratinib becomes protonated at acidic pH. NM is a highly lipophilic drug with a Log P of 4.7. It exhibits pH-dependent solubility in the pH range of 1.2 to 7.4. It has good solubility under low pH conditions, with a saturation solubility (Cs) of 100 ± 1 and 22 ± 0.5 mg/mL at pH 1.2 and 3.5, respectively. The solubility of NM decreases significantly as the pH increases. The drug is insoluble at pH 6 (Cs = 90 μg/mL) and above.

Использование

A drug used alone or with capecitabine to treat adults with certain types of HER2-positive breast cancer that have already been treated. It is also being studied in the treatment of other types of cancer. Neratinib maleate blocks certain proteins, which may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. It is a type of tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

Биологическая активность

Neratinib is a modified form of the discontinued compound pelitinib, and was originally being develoAdditionally, phase II development of oral neratinib as a neoadjuvant therapy for breast cancer, as a second-line therapy for non-small cell lung cancer, and for other solid tumours is also in progress in numerous countries worldwide. ped by Wyeth (later Pfizer). Oral neratinib is awaiting approval as an extended adjuvant therapy for breast cancer in the EU and in the US. Blocking HER2 function by a small molecule kinase inhibitor, such as neratinib, represents an attractive alternate strategy for the growth inhibition of HER2-positive tumours.

Механизм действия

Neratinib Maleate is the maleate salt form of neratinib, an orally available, quinazoline-based, irreversible inhibitor of both the receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2; ERBB2) and human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, neratinib targets and covalently binds to the cysteine residue in the ATP-binding pockets of both HER2 and EGFR. This inhibits their activity and results in the inhibition of downstream signal transduction events, induces cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and ultimately decreases cellular proliferation in HER2- and EGFR-expressing tumor cells. EGFR and HER2, RTKs that are mutated or overactivated in many tumor cell types, play key roles in tumor cell proliferation and tumor vascularization.
