Sorafenib Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

Sorafenib, an orally active potent multi-kinases inhibitor,was approved in the U.S. for the treatment of advanced renalcell carcinoma. The drug targets both tumor cell proliferationand tumor angiogenesis kinases that include RAF,VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, PDGFR-􀀁, KIT and FLT-3. Sorafenibis being jointly developed by Bayer and Onyx in phase IIItrials as a single agent for the treatment of advanced hepato-cellular carcinoma and in combination with carboplatin andpaclitaxel in patients with advanced metastatic melanoma.Phase II trials in combination with doxorubicin for thetreatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma are alsounder investigation. Additional phase II trials are ongoingfor non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and in postmenopausalwomen with estrogen receptor and/or progesteronereceptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. In addition, theNational Cancer Institute (NCI) is evaluating the compoundboth as a single therapy agent and in combination with otheroncology agents in phase II trials for several cancer indications.

Overview

Sorafenib tosylate is the tosylate form of sorafenib, which is a drug approved for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (primary kidney cancer). Hepatocellular carcinoma accounts for the vast majority of primary liver cancers (85–90%). [1] Approximately 70–90% of all hepatocellular cancer cases occur in patients with chronic liver disease and cirrhosis, with the main causes of cirrhosis including hepatitis B, hepatitis C and alcoholic liver disease.[1] Sorafenib is an oral receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits Raf serine/threonine kinases and receptor tyrosine kinases (vascular endothelial growth factor receptors 1, 2, 3 and platelet-derived growth factor-b, Flt-3 and c-kit) that are implicated in tumorigenesis and tumor progression.

Indications

It is indicated for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (primary kidney cancer).

Mechanism of action

The bi-aryl urea sorafenib is an oral multikinase inhibitor that inhibits both cell surface tyrosine kinase receptors and downstream intracellular serine/threonine kinases in the Ras/MAPK cascade.[2-4] Receptor tyrosine kinases inhibited by sorafenib include vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR)-b, c-KIT, FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT-3) and RET. Intracellular Raf serine/threonine kinase isoforms inhibited by sorafenib include Raf-1 (or C-Raf), wild-type B-Raf and mutant B-Raf.[3, 4] These kinases are involved in tumour cell proliferation and tumour angiogenesis.[3, 4]
The antiproliferative activity of sorafenib is variable in different tumor types and largely depends on the oncogenic signaling pathways that mediate tumor proliferation. Sorafenib has also been shown to induce apoptosis in several tumor cell lines. Although the mechanism through which sorafenib induces apoptosis is not fully elucidated and may vary between cell lines, a commonly observed theme is the inhibition of phosphorylation of the initiation factor eIF4E and loss of the antiapoptotic protein myeloid cell leukemia-1 (MCL-1)[5]. Recently, sorafenib was shown to inhibit hepatitis C viral replication in vitro[6], and in vitro studies have also shown some direct effects on immune cells [7]. Whether these effects

Description

Sorafenib is a small molecular inhibitor of several kinases involved in tumor angiogenesis and proliferation, including, but not limited to, Raf (IC50=12nM for Raf-1), VEGFR (IC50=90nM for VEGFR-2 and IC50=12nM for VEGFR-3), and platelet derived growth factor receptor (IC50=57nM for PDGFR-b). Specifically, sorafenib blocks tumor progression by inhibiting cellular proliferation that is dependent on activation of the MAPK pathway (Raf) and/or inhibiting tumor angiogenesis through VEGFR and/or PDGFR. While it may be effective in the treatment of a variety of tumors, the first approvable indication is for renal cell carcinoma. Overall, the drug appears to be well tolerated by the majority of patients at the 400 mg b.i.d. continuous dosing. As an inhibitor of multiple kinases vital for tumor progression, sorafenib may possess wide-spectrum antitumor properties and may emerge as an effective weapon against a variety of solid tumors.

Characteristics

The complex of sorafenib with a nonphosphorylated VEGFR2 construct comprising the catalytic and juxtamembrane (JM) domain shows the activation loop adopts a DFG-out position. The net effect of sorafenib’s interactions with the kinase is to stabilize the DFG motif in an inactive conformation. The lipophilic trifluoromethyl phenyl ring at the opposite end of the molecule inserts into a hydrophobic pocket formed between the -C and -E helices and amino-terminal regions of the DFG motif and catalytic loop. The urea functionality forms two crucial hydrogen bonds, one with the backbone aspartate of the DFG loop and the other with the glutamate side chain of the -C helix. In the auto-inhibited state, the DFG-out segment, particularly Phe1047, blocks ATP-binding. When the JM rearranges out of the regulatory domain pocket (RDP), then the DFG is unlocked and able to switch to the open activated state. Autophosphorylation, which activates the kinase presumably through stabilization of an active conformation, was shown to occur on the JM and then the DFG-containing activation loop sequentially. Sorafenib fills the binding channel, making an important H-bond to Asp1046, two H-bonds to the side chain carboxylate oxygen of Glu885, and two H-bonds to Cys919. The selectivity of sorafenib derives from the formation of these four hydrogen bonds and attractive van der Waals (dispersion) interactions.

Uses

Uses

Sorafenib Tosylate (Bay 43-9006) is a multikinase inhibitor of Raf-1, B-Raf and VEGFR-2 with IC50 of 6 nM, 22 nM and 90 nM, respectively - See more at: http://www.selleckchem.com/products/Sorafenib-Tosylate.html#sthash.BjHEmCf3.dpuf

Indications

Sorafenib (Nexavar(R), Bayer) was the first approved inhibitor targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family kinases, which include VEGFR1, VEGR2, and VEGFR3. Sorafenib was originally approved for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in 2005, hepatocellular carcinoma in 2007, and locally recurrent or metastatic thyroid carcinoma refractory to radioactive iodine treatment in 2013. Six other approved inhibitors with VEGFRs as the main targets are sunitinib (Sutent(R), Pfizer) for RCC, soft tissue sarcoma, thyroid cancer,metastatic pancreatic tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and several other types of carcinomas; pazopanib (Votrient(R), GlaxoSmithKline) for RCC, soft tissue sarcoma, and thyroid cancer; axitinib (Inlyta(R), Pfizer) for RCC,thyroid cancer, and aplastic anemia, as well as T315I-mutant Bcr–Abl1-driven leukemia; regorafenib (Stivarga(R), Bayer) for gastrointestinal stromal tumors and colorectal cancer; nintedanib (Ofev(R), Boehringer Ingelheim) for the non-oncological indication of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; and lenvatinib (Lenvima(R), Eisai Inc.) for RCC and different types of thyroid cancers. Sunitinib, pazopanib, and lenvatinib bind to the “DFG-in”conformation of VEGFRs, while axitinib, regorafenib, and nintedanib bind to inactive VEGFRs adopting the “DFG-out”conformation.

brand name

Nexavar (Bayer HealthCare); Xarelto (Bayer HealthCare).

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable

Clinical Use

Protein kinase inhibitor:
Treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma
Treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma
Treatment of thyroid cancer

Synthesis

An improved, four-step synthesis in 63% overall yield was published recently and is illustrated in the scheme. Picolinic acid (127) was heated with Vilsmeier reagent for 16 hr to give 128 in 89% yield as an off-white solid. The acid chloride 128 was treated with methylamine in methanol at low temperature to give amide 129 in 88% yield as paleyellow crystals after its crystallization from ethyl acetate.
4-Aminophenol anion was generated under a basic condition and compound 129 was added to the anion solution to give corresponding addition compound 131 in 87% yield. For an unknown reason, potassium carbonate used in the reaction increased the reaction rate significantly. Finally, compound 131 was condensed with isocyanate 132 in methylene chloride to give sorafenib (XVIII) in 92% yield as a white solid.

Drug interactions

Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
Anticoagulants: may enhance effect of coumarins.
Antipsychotics: avoid with clozapine (increased risk of agranulocytosis).
Antivirals: avoid with boceprevir.

Metabolism

Sorafenib is metabolised primarily in the liver and undergoes oxidative metabolism mediated by CYP3A4, as well as glucuronidation mediated by UGT1A9. 8 metabolites have been identified, during in vitro studies one has been shown to have equal activity to sorafenib. About 96% of a dose is excreted within 14 days, with 77%, mostly as unchanged drug, recovered in the faeces, and 19% in the urine as glucuronidated metabolites.
