Phase 1 dose-escalation, pharmacokinetic, and cerebrospinal fluid distribution study of TAK-285, an investigational inhibitor of EGFR and HER2.
    Investigational new drugs, 2014, Volume: 32, Issue:1

    This phase 1 study assessed safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) distribution, and preliminary clinical activity of the receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor TAK-285.. Patients with advanced, histologically confirmed solid tumors and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤2 received daily oral TAK-285; daily dose was escalated within defined cohorts until MTD and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) were determined. Eleven patients were enrolled into an RP2D cohort. Blood samples were collected from all cohorts; CSF was collected at pharmacokinetic steady-state from RP2D patients. Tumor responses were assessed every 8 weeks per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors.. Fifty-four patients were enrolled (median age 60; range, 35-76 years). The most common diagnoses were cancers of the colon (28 %), breast (17 %), and pancreas (9 %). Escalation cohorts evaluated doses from 50 mg daily to 500 mg twice daily; the MTD/RP2D was 400 mg twice daily. Dose-limiting toxicities included diarrhea, hypokalemia, and fatigue. Drug absorption was fast (median time of maximum concentration was 2-3 h), and mean half-life was 9 h. Steady-state average unbound CSF concentration (geometric mean 1.54 [range, 0.51-4.27] ng/mL; n = 5) at the RP2D was below the 50 % inhibitory concentration (9.3 ng/mL) for inhibition of tyrosine kinase activity in cells expressing recombinant HER2. Best response was stable disease (12 weeks of nonprogression) in 13 patients.. TAK-285 was generally well tolerated at the RP2D. Distribution in human CSF was confirmed, but the free concentration of the drug was below that associated with biologically relevant target inhibition.

Phase I first-in-human study of TAK-285, a novel investigational dual HER2/EGFR inhibitor, in cancer patients.
    British journal of cancer, 2012, Feb-14, Volume: 106, Issue:4

    This phase I first-in-human study was conducted in Japanese patients to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PKs), and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of oral TAK-285, a novel dual erbB protein kinase inhibitor that specifically targets human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and HER2.. The TAK-285 dose was escalated until MTD was determined. A second patient cohort received TAK-285 at the MTD for at least 4 weeks.. In all, 26 patients received TAK-285 at doses ranging from 50 to 400 mg once daily (q.d.) or twice daily (b.i.d.); 20 patients made up the dose escalation cohort and the remaining 6 patients were the repeated administration cohort. TAK-285 was well tolerated. Dose-limiting toxicities noted in two patients who received 400 mg b.i.d. were grade 3 increases in aminotransferases and grade 3 decreased appetite. Consequently, the MTD was determined to be 300 mg b.i.d. Absorption of TAK-285 was rapid after oral dosing, and plasma exposure at steady-state increased in a dose-proportional fashion for doses ranging from 50 to 300 mg b.i.d. A partial response was observed for one patient with parotid cancer who received 300 mg b.i.d.. The toxicity profile and PK properties of oral TAK-285 warrant further evaluation.

Structural and energetic basis for the molecular recognition of dual synthetic vs. natural inhibitors of EGFR/HER2.
    International journal of biological macromolecules, 2018, Volume: 111

    Activation of EGFR starts by ligand binding at the extracellular domain which results in homo and heterodimerization, leading to phosphorylation, activation of downstream signaling pathways which upregulate expression of genes, proliferation and angiogenesis. Abnormalities in the expression of EGFR play a critical role in the development of different types of cancer. HER2 is the preferred heterodimerization partner for EGFR; this biological characteristic together with the high percentage of structural homology has been exploited in the design of dual synthetic inhibitors against EGFR/HER2. Herein we combined structural data and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations coupled to an MMGBSA approach to provide insight into the binding mechanism between two dual synthetics (lapatinib and TAK-285) and one dual natural inhibitor (EGCG) which target EGFR/HER2. In addition, we proposed some EGCG derivatives which were filtered through in silico screening. Structural analysis demonstrated that the coupling of synthetic, natural or newly designed compounds impacts the conformational space of EGFR and HER2 differently. Energetic analysis points out that lapatinib and TAK-285 have better affinity for inactive EGFR than the active EGFR state or HER2, whereas some EGCG derivatives seem to form binding affinities similar to those observed for lapatinib or TAK-285.

Structural analysis of the mechanism of inhibition and allosteric activation of the kinase domain of HER2 protein.
    The Journal of biological chemistry, 2011, May-27, Volume: 286, Issue:21

    Aberrant signaling of ErbB family members human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is implicated in many human cancers, and HER2 expression is predictive of human disease recurrence and prognosis. Small molecule kinase inhibitors of EGFR and of both HER2 and EGFR have received approval for the treatment of cancer. We present the first high resolution crystal structure of the kinase domain of HER2 in complex with a selective inhibitor to understand protein activation, inhibition, and function at the molecular level. HER2 kinase domain crystallizes as a dimer and suggests evidence for an allosteric mechanism of activation comparable with previously reported activation mechanisms for EGFR and HER4. A unique Gly-rich region in HER2 following the α-helix C is responsible for increased conformational flexibility within the active site and could explain the low intrinsic catalytic activity previously reported for HER2. In addition, we solved the crystal structure of the kinase domain of EGFR in complex with a HER2/EGFR dual inhibitor (TAK-285). Comparison with previously reported inactive and active EGFR kinase domain structures gave insight into the mechanism of HER2 and EGFR inhibition and may help guide the design and development of new cancer drugs with improved potency and selectivity.
