An internal standard for the quantification of erlotinib
Erlotinib-d6 (hydrochloride) contains six deuterium atoms located on the methoxy group. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of erlotinib by GC- or LC-MS. Erlotinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that acts on the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), inhibiting EGFR-associated kinase activity (IC50 = 2.5 µM).1,2 This inhibits tumor growth in human head and neck carcinoma (HN5) tumor xenografts in mice with an ED50 value of 9 mg/kg.1 Erlotinib also suppresses cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2) activity in breast cancer cells (IC50 = 4.6 µM) and JAK2 mutant JAK2V617F (IC50 = 5 µM), which is associated with polycythemia vera, idiopathic myelofibrosis, and essential thrombocythemia.3,4 Formulations containing erlotinib are used to treat certain forms of cancer, including non-small cell lung cancer.5,6
