Antitumor Activity of HKI-272, an Orally Active, Irreversible Inhibitor of the HER-2 Tyrosine Kinase

TL;DR: HKI-272 is a potent inhibitor ofHER-2 and is highly active against HER-2-overexpressing human breast cancer cell lines in vitro and in vivo, and has been selected as a candidate for additional development as an antitumor agent in breast and other HER- 2-dependent cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combinatorial chemoprevention of intestinal neoplasia.

TL;DR: A combination of two drugs afforded remarkable protection from intestinal neoplasia in APCMin/+ mice, a murine model of human familial adenomatous polyposis, suggesting a powerful strategy for the chemoprevention of human colonic neopl Asia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and Structure−Activity Relationships of 6,7-Disubstituted 4-Anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitriles. The Design of an Orally Active, Irreversible Inhibitor of the Tyrosine Kinase Activity of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) and the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-2 (HER-2)

TL;DR: A series of of 6,7-disubstituted-4-anilinoquinoline-3-carbonitrile derivatives that function as irreversible inhibitors of EGFR and HER-2 kinases have been prepared and one compound, 5, which shows excellent oral in vivo activity, was selected for further studies and is currently in phase I clinical trials for the treatment of cancer.
