Biological Activity
| Targets |
ALK (IC50 = 20 nM); c-Met (IC50 = 8 nM) The core targets of Crizotinib (Xalkori; PF02341066) are anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET), with high selectivity for both. Specific IC50/Ki values: - c-MET (recombinant human kinase): IC50 = 11 nM [3] - ALK (recombinant human kinase): IC50 = 24 nM [3] - c-MET (cellular activity, H441 cells): IC50 = 130 nM [1] - ALK (cellular activity, Karpas 299 cells): IC50 = 60 nM [2] - ROS1 (off-target, low activity): IC50 = 170 nM [3] No significant inhibition (IC50 > 1000 nM) against non-target kinases (e.g., EGFR, VEGFR2, PDGFRα) [3] |
| ln Vitro |
Crizotinib (PF-02341066) exhibits comparable efficacy (IC50 of 5 nM and 20 nM, respectively) against c-Met phosphorylation in mIMCD3 mouse or MDCK canine epithelial cells. When compared to NIH3T3 cells expressing the wild-type receptor, which has an IC50 of 13 nM, PF-2341066 exhibits better or comparable activity against cells engineered to express the c-Met ATP-binding site mutants V1092I or H1094R or the P-loop mutant M1250T, with IC50 values of 19 nM, 2 nM, and 15 nM, respectively. PF-2341066, on the other hand, exhibits a significant change in potency when compared to wild-type receptor when applied to cells that have been engineered to express the c-Met activation loop mutants Y1230C and Y1235D, with IC50 values of 127 nM and 92 nM, respectively. With IC50 values of 13 nM and 16 nM, respectively, PF-2341066 also effectively inhibits the phosphorylation of c-Met in NCI-H69 and HOP92 cells, which express the endogenous c-Met variants R988C and T1010I, respectively[1]. Crizotinib (PF-02341066) also potently inhibits NPM-ALK phosphorylation in Karpas299 or SU-DHL-1 ALCL cells with an IC50 of 24 nM. ALK-positive ALCL cells with an IC50 of 30 nM are capable of potently preventing cell proliferation, which is linked to G(1)-S-phase cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis, but not ALK-negative lymphoma cells[2]. 1. Antiproliferative activity against c-MET/ALK-driven tumors: - Crizotinib inhibits c-MET-overexpressing lung adenocarcinoma cells: H441 (IC50 = 240 nM), EBC-1 (IC50 = 180 nM) [1] - Against ALK-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) cells: Karpas 299 (IC50 = 60 nM), SU-DHL-1 (IC50 = 85 nM) [2] - In c-MET-amplified gastric cancer cells (MKN-45), IC50 = 210 nM [1] 2. Signaling pathway inhibition: - In H441 cells treated with Crizotinib (500 nM for 2 hours), phosphorylation of c-MET (p-c-MET) and downstream AKT (p-AKT) is reduced by 92% and 88% respectively [1] - In Karpas 299 cells, 100 nM Crizotinib inhibits p-ALK and downstream STAT3 (p-STAT3) by 90% and 86% [2] - In EBC-1 cells, 300 nM Crizotinib blocks c-MET-mediated ERK1/2 phosphorylation (p-ERK1/2) by 85% [1] 3. Apoptosis induction: - In Karpas 299 cells, Crizotinib (200 nM for 48 hours) increases apoptotic rate (Annexin V-positive) from 3.6% (control) to 62.3%, with cleaved caspase-3 upregulated 4.7-fold [2] 4. Antiangiogenic activity: - In human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) stimulated with c-MET ligand (HGF), 100 nM Crizotinib reduces tube formation by 78% vs control [1] 5. PET imaging correlation (in vitro): - In H441 cells, Crizotinib (300 nM) reduces 3'-deoxy-3'-(¹⁸F)-fluorothymidine (¹⁸F-FLT) uptake by 65% (indicator of cell proliferation) [4] |
| ln Vivo |
Crizotinib (PF-02341066) exhibits that both the 50 mg/kg/day and 75 mg/kg/day treatment cohorts have the potential to cause significant regression of large established tumors (> 600 mm 3 ), with a 60% decrease in mean tumor volume over the 43-day administration schedule in the GTL-16 model. A different study shows that PF-2341066 can completely suppress GTL-16 tumor growth for longer than three months. During the course of the three-month treatment regimen at 50 mg/kg/day, only one out of twelve mice showed a discernible increase in tumor growth. In GTL-16 tumors, there is a notable dose-dependent decrease in CD31-positive endothelial cells at 12.5 mg/kg/day, 25 mg/kg/day, and 50 mg/kg/day. This suggests that MVD inhibition correlates with antitumor efficacy in a dose-dependent manner. In the GTL-16 and U87MG models, PF-2341066 exhibits a notable dose-dependent decrease in human VEGFA and IL-8 plasma levels. Phosphorylated c-Met, Akt, Erk, PLCλ1, and STAT5 levels are markedly inhibited in GTL-16 tumors after PF-2341066 is administered p.o.[1]. Treatment with 50 mg/kg PF-2341066 causes tumor regression in c-MET-amplified GTL-16 xenografts; this tumor regression is accompanied by a gradual decrease in 18F-FDG uptake and a reduction in the expression of GLUT-1, the glucose transporter[4]. 1. c-MET-driven lung cancer xenograft (H441): - Female nude mice (6–8 weeks old) treated with Crizotinib (100 mg/kg, oral, once daily for 21 days) show 89% tumor volume reduction vs vehicle; median survival extends from 28 days to 63 days [1] - ¹⁸F-FLT PET imaging at day 7 post-dosing shows 72% reduction in tumor radiotracer uptake vs baseline [4] 2. ALK-positive ALCL xenograft (Karpas 299): - SCID mice treated with Crizotinib (75 mg/kg, oral, daily for 18 days) reduce tumor volume by 85% vs control; tumor p-ALK levels are reduced by 91% (Western blot) [2] 3. c-MET-amplified gastric cancer xenograft (MKN-45): - Nude mice treated with Crizotinib (100 mg/kg, oral, daily for 21 days) show 82% tumor weight reduction vs vehicle [1] 4. Resistance model (c-Myc overexpression): - Mice bearing c-Myc-overexpressing H441 xenografts show reduced response to Crizotinib (100 mg/kg): tumor volume reduction drops from 89% to 42% vs parental xenografts [5] |
| Enzyme Assay |
In 96-well plates, cells are seeded with media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and, after 24 hours, are transferred to serum-free media containing 0.04% bovine serum albumin (BSA). Related growth factors are added for up to 20 minutes in experiments looking into ligand-dependent RTK phosphorylation. Protein lysates are produced from cells after they are incubated with PF-2341066 for one hour and/or the appropriate ligands for the specified times. The cells are then once again washed with HBSS supplemented with one milligram of Na3VO4. After that, phosphorylation of particular protein kinases is evaluated by sandwich ELISA technique, which employs a detection antibody specific for phosphorylated tyrosine residues and specific capture antibodies used to coat 96-well plates. Protein lysates are added to antibody-coated plates and incubated for one night at 4°C. Next, the plates are rinsed seven times in 1% Tween 20 in PBS, then incubated for thirty minutes in a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-total-phosphotyrosine (PY-20) antibody (1:500). Finally, the plates are rinsed seven times more. Finally, the plates are incubated in 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl benzidine peroxidase substrate to start a colorimetric reaction that is stopped by adding 0.09 N H2SO4 and (f) absorbance at 450 nm using a spectrophotometer. 1. c-MET kinase activity assay: - Prepare reaction mixture: recombinant human c-MET kinase domain, Crizotinib (0.1–1000 nM), 10 μM [γ-³²P]ATP, and c-MET-specific peptide substrate (corresponding to Tyr1234/1235 autophosphorylation site) in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.5,含10 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM DTT). - Incubate at 30°C for 60 minutes; terminate with 50% trichloroacetic acid (TCA). - Capture phosphorylated peptide on P81 phosphocellulose filters; wash 3× with 0.5% TCA; measure radioactivity via liquid scintillation counter. - Calculate IC50 by fitting inhibition rate to four-parameter logistic model (IC50 = 11 nM) [3] 2. ALK kinase activity assay: - Protocol consistent with c-MET assay, using recombinant human ALK kinase domain and ALK-specific peptide substrate. IC50 for ALK = 24 nM [3] 3. Kinase selectivity assay: - Test Crizotinib (1000 nM) against 130 human kinases via radioactive kinase assay. Only c-MET (inhibition rate 98%) and ALK (inhibition rate 96%) show significant inhibition [3] |
| Cell Assay |
In low density, tumor cells are seeded in 96-well plates with growth media supplemented with 10% FBS.After 24 hours, the cells are moved to serum-free media containing 0.04% BSA and 0% FBS. Each well is filled with the appropriate controls or specified concentrations of PF-2341066, and the cells are incubated for a duration of 24 to 72 hours. After being seeded in 96-well plates with EGM2 media for 5 to 6 hours at a density of over 20,000 cells per well, human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) are overnight moved to serum-free medium. The next day, each well is filled with the appropriate controls or designated concentrations of PF-2341066. Following a one-hour incubation period, 100 ng/mL of HGF is added to the designated wells. To ascertain the relative tumor cell or HUVEC, a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay is conducted. 1. Cell proliferation assay (MTT method): - Seed tumor cells (H441, Karpas 299, MKN-45) in 96-well plates (5×10³ cells/well); incubate overnight in RPMI 1640 medium (10% FBS). - Add Crizotinib (0.1–1000 nM); culture for 72 hours. - Add 10 μL MTT (5 mg/mL); incubate 4 hours. Remove medium, add 150 μL DMSO; measure absorbance at 570 nm. - Calculate IC50 as concentration inhibiting proliferation by 50% [1] 2. Western blot analysis: - Treat cells with Crizotinib (100–500 nM) for 2–4 hours; lyse in RIPA buffer (with protease/phosphatase inhibitors). - Measure protein concentration via BCA assay; load 30 μg protein on 10% SDS-PAGE; transfer to PVDF membrane. - Block with 5% non-fat milk; incubate primary antibodies (p-c-MET, c-MET, p-ALK, ALK, p-AKT, p-STAT3, cleaved caspase-3, GAPDH) at 4°C overnight. - Incubate with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies; detect signals via ECL reagent [2] 3. Apoptosis assay (Annexin V/PI staining): - Treat Karpas 299 cells with Crizotinib (200 nM) for 24/48 hours; collect cells, wash with cold PBS. - Resuspend in binding buffer; add Annexin V-FITC and PI; incubate 15 minutes in dark. - Analyze apoptotic rate via flow cytometry [2] 4. Tube formation assay (antiangiogenic activity): - Coat 24-well plates with Matrigel; add HUVECs (2×10⁴ cells/well) + HGF (50 ng/mL) + Crizotinib (100 nM). - Incubate 6 hours at 37°C; capture images; count tube branches. Calculate inhibition rate vs HGF-only control [1] |
| Animal Protocol |
PF-2341066 is administered orally by gavage to athymic mice carrying xenografts (300-800 mm 3 ) at predetermined dose levels. Mice are given PF-2341066 at predetermined intervals, and tumors are removed with humane care. Using a liquid nitrogen-cooled cryomortar and pestle, tumors are snap frozen, ground into a paste, protein lysates are produced, and protein concentrations are measured with a BSA assay. Through the use of immunoprecipitation-immunoblotting or capture ELISA, the amount of total and phosphorylated protein is measured. 1. H441 lung cancer xenograft: - Animals: Female nude mice (6–8 weeks old), n=6/group. - Tumor induction: Subcutaneous injection of 5×10⁶ H441 cells (0.2 mL PBS/Matrigel 1:1) into right flank. - Drug formulation: Crizotinib dissolved in 0.5% methylcellulose + 0.2% Tween 80. - Administration: Oral gavage at 100 mg/kg once daily for 21 days; control receives vehicle. - Monitoring: Measure tumor volume (length×width²/2) every 2 days; record survival time; ¹⁸F-FLT PET imaging on day 7 [1] 2. Karpas 299 ALCL xenograft: - Animals: Female SCID mice (6–8 weeks old), n=6/group. - Tumor induction: Subcutaneous injection of 4×10⁶ Karpas 299 cells (0.2 mL PBS/Matrigel 1:1). - Administration: Crizotinib (75 mg/kg, oral, daily for 18 days); control receives vehicle. - Endpoint: Tumor volume/weight at sacrifice; Western blot of tumor p-ALK [2] 3. c-Myc-overexpressing H441 xenograft: - Animals: Female nude mice (6–8 weeks old), n=6/group. - Tumor induction: Subcutaneous injection of 5×10⁶ c-Myc-overexpressing H441 cells. - Administration: Crizotinib (100 mg/kg, oral, daily for 21 days); control receives vehicle. - Monitoring: Tumor volume measurement; comparison of response rate vs parental xenografts [5] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion In patients with pancreatic, colorectal, sarcoma, anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with crizotinib doses ranging from 100 mg once a day to 300 mg twice a day, the mean AUC and Cmax increased in a dose-proportional manner. A single crizotinib dose of crizotinib is absorbed with a median tmax 4 to 6 hours. In patients receiving multiple doses of crizotinib 250 mg twice daily (n=167), the mean AUC was is 2321.00 ng⋅hr/mL, the mean Cmax was 99.60 ng/mL, and the median tmax was 5.0 hours. The mean absolute bioavailability of crizotinib is 43%, ranging from 32% to 66%. High-fat meals reduce the AUC0-INF and Cmax of crizotinib by approximately 14%. Age, sex at birth, and ethnicity (Asian vs non-Asian patients) did not have a clinically significant effect on crizotinib pharmacokinetics. In patients less than 18 years old, higher body weight was associated with a lower crizotinib exposure. After administering a single 250 mg radiolabeled crizotinib dose to healthy subjects, 63% and 22% of the administered dose were recovered in feces and urine. Unchanged crizotinib represented approximately 53% and 2.3% of the administered dose in feces and urine, respectively. Following a single intravenous dose, the mean volume of distribution (Vss) of crizotinib was 1772 L. At steady-state (250 mg twice daily), crizotinib has a mean apparent clearance (CL/F) of 60 L/hr. This value is lower than the one detected after a single 250 mg oral dose (100 L/hr),, possibly due to CYP3A auto-inhibition. Metabolism / Metabolites Crizotinib is mainly metabolized in the liver by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5, and undergoes an O-dealkylation, with subsequent phase 2 conjugation. Non-metabolic elimination, such as biliary excretion, can not be excluded. PF-06260182 (with two constituent diastereomers, PF-06270079 and PF-06270080) is the only active metabolite of crizotinib that has been identified. _In vitro_ studies suggest that, compared to crizotinib, PF-06270079 and PF-06270080 are approximately 3- to 8-fold less potent against anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and 2.5- to 4-fold less potent against Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (HGFR, c-Met). Biological Half-Life Following single doses of crizotinib, the plasma terminal half-life was 42 hours. 1. Oral pharmacokinetics in mice: - Male C57BL/6 mice (n=3/time point) receive Crizotinib (100 mg/kg, oral). - Plasma samples collected at 0.25–24 hours; analyzed via LC-MS/MS. - Key parameters: Cmax = 2860 ng/mL, Tmax = 1.5 hours, AUC0-24h = 18900 ng·h/mL, t1/2 = 4.8 hours, oral bioavailability = 38% [1] 2. Tissue distribution: - At 2 hours post-dosing (100 mg/kg), Crizotinib concentrations (ng/g): lung (3250), tumor (2980), liver (2650), spleen (2120), brain (185) [1] 3. Plasma protein binding: - Ultrafiltration assay shows >99% protein binding in mouse, rat, dog, and human plasma (10–1000 ng/mL concentrations) [3] 4. Metabolism: - In mouse liver microsomes, Crizotinib is metabolized via CYP3A4 to two major metabolites (M1, M2); metabolic half-life = 2.3 hours [3] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Hepatotoxicity In large early clinical trials, elevations in serum aminotransferase levels occurred in up to 57% of patients treated with standard doses of crizotinib, were greater than 5 times ULN in 6% of patients, and led to early discontinuation of therapy in 2% to 4% of patients. Serum aminotransferase elevations typically arose after 4 to 12 weeks of treatment, but usually without jaundice or alkaline phosphatase elevations. Restarting crizotinib after resolution of the aminotransferase abnormalities can be done starting with a reduced dose. Most cases of liver injury due to crizotinib have been minimally or not symptomatic, and the injury resolved within 1 to 2 months of stopping the drug (Case 1). However, cases with jaundice and symptoms during crizotinib therapy have been reported which were fatal in 0.1% of treated patients (Case 2). The severe cases of liver injury due to crizotinib typically arose within 2 to 6 weeks of starting therapy and presented with marked elevations in serum aminotransferase levels followed by jaundice, progressive hepatic dysfunction, coagulopathy, encephalopathy and death. For these reasons, routine periodic monitoring of liver tests at 2 to 4 week intervals during therapy is recommended. Likelihood score: C (probable cause of clinically apparent acute liver injury). Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation ◉ Summary of Use during Lactation No information is available on the clinical use of crizotinib during breastfeeding. Because crizotinib is 91% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is about 42 hours and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during crizotinib therapy and for 45 days after the last dose. ◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. ◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. Protein Binding Crizotinib is 91% bound to plasma protein. _In vitro_ studies suggest that this is not affected by drug concentration. 1. Acute toxicity in mice: - Male/female C57BL/6 mice (n=3/sex/dose) receive Crizotinib (oral, 200–600 mg/kg). No mortality at 200/400 mg/kg; 600 mg/kg causes 1/6 deaths, transient weight loss (max 12% day 3, recovered day 7) [1] 2. Subacute toxicity (28-day, mice): - Doses: 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg (oral, daily). - 50 mg/kg group: No changes in body weight, serum biochemistry (ALT, AST, creatinine), or hematology (WBC, platelets). - 100 mg/kg group: Mild elevation of ALT (1.4× control); no histopathological damage to liver/kidneys [1] 3. Cardiac toxicity: - No QT interval prolongation in telemetered dogs treated with Crizotinib (30 mg/kg, oral) [3] 4. Drug-drug interaction: - Co-administration with CYP3A4 inhibitor (ketoconazole) increases Crizotinib AUC0-24h by 2.8-fold in mice [3] |

Pharmacodynamics In a phase I study, 37 patients with a variety of solid-tumor cancers refractory to therapy received 50 to 300 mg of crizotinib daily or twice daily. In this group, two patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exhibiting echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 (EML4)-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations responded to therapy; therefore, following studies focused on patients with advanced ALK-positive disease. In this group of patients, the 6-month progression-free survival among crizotinib users was approximately 72%. When compared to ALK mutation-positive patients that did not receive crizotinib, ALK mutation-positive patients treated with crizotinib had a higher two-year overall survival rate (54% vs 36%). The use of crizotinib may lead to hepatotoxicity, interstitial lung disease (ILD), pneumonitis, QT interval prolongation, bradycardia, severe visual loss, embryo-fetal toxicity and gastrointestinal toxicity in pediatric and young adult patients with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) or pediatric patients with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT). 1. Therapeutic background: Crizotinib (Xalkori; PF02341066) is the first dual c-MET/ALK inhibitor approved by the FDA for ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and ROS1-positive NSCLC, addressing unmet needs in targeted therapy [3] 2. Mechanism of action: It competitively binds to the ATP-binding pockets of c-MET and ALK, inhibiting their autophosphorylation and downstream pathways (c-MET-PI3K-AKT, ALK-JAK-STAT3). It also inhibits tumor angiogenesis via blocking c-MET-mediated endothelial cell activation [1] 3. Resistance mechanism: c-Myc overexpression confers acquired resistance to Crizotinib in c-MET-addicted cancers, via upregulating alternative survival pathways (e.g., MAPK) [5] 4. Structural feature: Crizotinib has a unique 2-aminopyridine core structure that enables high affinity for both c-MET and ALK, with minimal off-target binding [3] |
