What is the mechanism of action of brigatinib/brigatinib? How does it work?

Brigatinib/BrigatinibBelongs to the kinase inhibitor class of drugs, It works by blocking the activity of an abnormal protein that sends a reproduction signal to cancer cells, This helps slow or prevent the spread of cancer cells. Brigatinib is used to treat a type of non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

Brigatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor with activity against multiple kinases, including ALK, ROS1, and insulin-like growth factor1Receptors and activity against EGFRdeletions and point mutations, it acts by inhibitingALKphosphorylation and activation of downstream signaling proteins. Brigatinibinhibits the proliferation and in vitro viability of cells expressing fusion proteinEML4-ALK and 17 species of crizotinib-resistant ALK mutant. Its effect extends to cells expressing EGFR deletion, ROS1-L2026M, FLT3-F691L and FLT3-D835Y. In a mouse EML4-ALK xenograft model, brigatinib had a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on tumor growth, tumor burden, and prolonged survival. The time course and exposure-response studies of brigatinib remain unknown.

Brigatinib is metabolized in human liver microsomes and hepatocytes by cyp2c 8 (72.4%) and cyp3a 4 (27.6%). The two main metabolites produced are the N-demethylated form and the cysteine-conjugated form. Orally administered radiolabeled brigatinib showed 91.5%of the unchanged form and 3.5%of the systemic presence of the major metabolite AP26123. AP26123’s AUC is less than brigatinibAUC's 10%, the inhibitory effect is 3 times lower.
