Bioactivity | Lapatinib (GW572016) is a potent inhibitor of the ErbB-2 and EGFR tyrosine kinase domains with IC50 values against purified EGFR and ErbB-2 of 10.2 and 9.8 nM, respectively[1]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Lapatinib (GW2016; 0.03-10 µM; 6 hours; BT474 and HN5 cells) treatment inhibits receptor autophosphorylation of EGFR and ErbB-2 in a dose-responsive manner. Phosphorylation of serine 473 of AKT was inhibited by GW2016 in a dose-dependent manner[1].Lapatinib (GW2016; 72 hours; HN5, A-43, BT474, N87, and CaLu-3 cells) treatment has a selective inhibition of the proliferation of human tumor cell lines[1].Lapatinib (GW2016; 1-10 µM; 72 hours; HN5 cells) treatment results in induces G1 arrest[1].

In Vivo | Lapatinib (GW2016; 30-100 mg/kg; oral administration; twice daily; for 21 days; CD-1 nude female mice) treatment inhibits tumor xenograft growth of the HN5 cells in a dose-responsive manner at 30 and 100 mg/kg, with complete inhibition of tumor growth at the higher dose[1].
