Gilteritinib

Gilteritinib is an inhibitor of FMS-related tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3; IC50= 5 nM for the wild-type enzyme). It inhibits mutant forms of FLT3, including FLT3 with the internal tandem duplication mutation (FLT3-ITD), FLT3-ITD expressing the F691L mutation, and FLT3 with various tyrosine kinase domain mutations (FLT3-TKD; IC50s =1.4-1.8, 12.2, and 0.7-2 nM, respectively). Gilteritinib also inhibits Axl and c-Kit with IC50values of 41 and 102 nM, respectively. It decreases the viability of blast cells isolated from patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in a concentration-dependent manner. Formulations containing gilteritinib have been used in the treatment of AML.
ChEBI: Gilteritinib is a member of the class of pyrazines that is pyrazine-2-carboxamide which is substituted by {3-methoxy-4-[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)piperidin-1-yl]phenyl}nitrilo, (oxan-4-yl)nitrilo and ethyl groups at positions 3,5 and 6, respectively. It is a potent inhibitor of FLT3 and AXL tyrosine kinase receptors (IC50 = 0.29 nM and 0.73 nM, respectively). Approved by the FDA for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia in patients who have a FLT3 gene mutation. It has a role as an apoptosis inducer, an EC 2.7.10.1 (receptor protein-tyrosine kinase) inhibitor and an antineoplastic agent. It is a N-methylpiperazine, a member of piperidines, a secondary amino compound, a monomethoxybenzene, a member of pyrazines, a primary carboxamide, an aromatic amine and a member of oxanes.
Class: receptor tyrosine kinase; Treatment: AML, SM; Other name: ASP-2215; Oral bioavailability > 61%; Elimination half-life = 113 h; Protein binding = 94%
