Product Name:
Afatinib Dimaleate
CAS Number:
850140-73-7
Indication:
Afatinib is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the first-line treatment of patient with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumours have epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletions or exon 21 (L858R) substitution mutations as detected by an FDA-approved test.
Mode of Action:

Afatinib is an irreversible kinase inhibitor and binds to the kinase domains of EGFR (ErbB1), HER2 (ErbB2), and HER4 (ErbB4) to inhibit tyrosine kinase autophosphorylation. This results in a downregulation of ErbB signalling and subsequent inhibition of proliferation of cell lines expressing wild-type EGFR, selected EGFR exon 19 deletion mutations, or exon 21 L858R mutations. It also inhibited in vitro proliferation of cell lines overexpressing HER2. Overall, tumour growth was inhibited.

Pharmacodynamics:

Afatinib did not effect the QTc interval.

Metabolism:

Enzymatic metabolism of afatinib is minimal. Covalent adducts to proteins are the major circulating metabolites.

Toxicity:

Most common adverse reactions (≥20%) are diarrhea, rash/dermatitis, acneiform, stomatitis, paronychia, dry skin, decreased appetite, pruritus.
