A FLT3 inhibitor
Gilteritinib is an inhibitor of FMS-related tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3; IC50 = 5 nM for the wild-type enzyme).1 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 IC50 values 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.

Kinase experiment: | The kinase inhibitory activity of Gilteritinib is tested against a panel of 78 tested kinases using ATP concentrations that are approximately equal to the Km value for each kinase in a TK-ELISA or off-chip mobility shift assay. Initially, two concentrations of Gilteritinib (1 nM and 5 nM) are tested to assess each compound’s inhibitory effect on TK activity. Further studies are then conducted using a dose range of Gilteritinib to determine IC50 values for kinases in which activity is inhibited by >50% with 1 nM Gilteritinib as well as for c-KIT. TK-ELISA and MSA assays are used to conduct IC50 studies for FLT3, LTK, AXL, and c-KIT; the HTRF KinEASE-TK assay is performed to assess the IC50 value of echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4-ALK (EML4-ALK)[2]. |
Cell experiment: | The effect of Gilteritinib on MV4-11 and MOLM-13 cells is assessed using the CellTiter-Glo Luminescent Cell Viability Assay. Subsequent studies are conducted to examine the effect of Gilteritinib and Quizartinib on Ba/F3 cells expressing either FLT3-ITD, FLT3-D835Y, FLT3-ITD-D835Y, FLT3-ITD-F691 L, or FLT3-ITD-F691I. MV4-11 and MOLM-13 cells are treated with DMSO or increasing concentrations of Gilteritinib (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 nM) for 5 days, and cell viability is measured using CellTiter-Glo[2]. |
Animal experiment: | Mice[1]Antitumor activity is evaluated in nude mice transplanted with MV4-11 AML cells. The pharmacokinetics in xenografted mice is also investigated. MV4-11 xenografted-mice are treated with oral administration of Gilteritinib at 10 mg/kg for 4 days. Treatment of Gilteritinib for 28 days results in dose-dependent inhibition of MV4-11 tumor growth and induces complete tumor regression at more than 6 mg/kg[1]. |
