DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Drug analysis: Iclusig" drug pipelines has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Iclusig (ponatinib; Takeda/Incyte/Otsuka) is a BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Preclinical studies have also shown selective inhibition of other tyrosine kinases, including FLT3, RET, KIT, and the members of the fibroblast growth factor receptor, platelet-derived growth factor receptor, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor families of kinases. Iclusig demonstrated inhibition of wild-type and mutated forms of BCR-ABL, including T315I, the highly drug-resistant missense mutation of BCR-ABL. In mice, treatment with Iclusig reduced the size of tumors expressing native or T315I-mutant BCR-ABL when compared to controls.
After a brief suspension due to an increased risk of arterial thrombosis, Ariad reinstated Iclusig's commercialization for patients with refractory chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia in January 2014. This event was contingent upon US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements that safety measures, additional product labeling, a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy, and post-marketing investigations be put in place prior to marketing and commercialization.
