REVIEW
Journey of the ALK-inhibitor CH5424802 to phase II clinical trial.
Archives of Pharmacal Research 2013 September
The anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) receptor tyrosine kinase represents a potential therapeutic target. Specially, a variety of alterations in the ALK gene including mutations, overexpression, amplification, translocations and structural rearrangements, are involved in human cancer tumorigenesis. The second-generation ALK inhibitor CH5424802 (development code: AF802; Chugai Pharmaceutical, a subsidiary of Roche) achieves tumor regression with excellent tolerance and shows promising efficacy in patients with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. CH5424802 shows good kinase selectivity, has a promising pharmacokinetics profile, and has strong antiproliferative activity in several ALK-driven tumor models. CH5424802 has also shown anti-tumor activity in mouse xenograft studies. Here, we summarize recent advances and the evidence that CH5424802 acts as an ALK inhibitor. We also discuss its potential for further development as an anticancer drug in clinical trials.
