Savolitinib (volitinib, AZD-6094, HMPL-504; Orpathys; HUTCHMED) is a novel, potent, orally bioactive and selective inhibitor of the c-Met receptor kinase with anticancer activity. In 2021, Savolitinib was granted a conditional approval in China for use in patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with MET exon 14 skipping alterations (METex14) who experienced disease progression after previous systemic therapy or are unable to receive chemotherapy. Savolitinib has IC50 values of 5 nM and 3 nM for c-Met and p-Met respectively. It exhibits high selectivity for c-Met over 274 other kinases. Savolitinib selectively binds to the ATP-site and inhibits the activation of c-Met, eventually disrupts transduction of c-Met signal pathways, collectively this will result in cell growth inhibition in tumors overexpressing the c-Met protein, as a result, Savolitinib has potential anticancer activity.

Biological Activity
| Targets |
c-Met (IC50 = 5 nM); p-Met (IC50 = 3 nM)
The target of Savolitinib (AZD6094, HMPL-504) is mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-Met), and it acts as a highly potent and selective inhibitor of c-Met. [1] Savolitinib (AZD6094, HMPL-504) is a selective c-Met inhibitor, and in gastric cancer cell lines with dysregulated c-Met, its EC50 values for inhibiting cell growth range from 0.6 nM/L to 12.5 nM/L [2] |
| ln Vitro |
Volitinib exhibits exceptional potency and kinase selectivity [1]. In a panel of gastric cell lines, vitetinib exhibits a highly selective profile; it only potently inhibits cell growth in the lines that have dysregulated cMET (EC50 values 0.6 nM/L-12.5 nM/L)[2]. Volitinib shows minimal inhibition of P-gp (IC50 > 17 μM) and possesses high membrane permeability without causing efflux transport across the monolayer of Caco-2 cells. Volitinib does not significantly increase CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 in human hepatocytes or cause reversible or mechanism-based CYP inhibition in human liver microsomes[3]. 1. Anti-proliferative activity in gastric cancer cell lines: A panel of 22 gastric cancer cell lines was screened to evaluate the anti-proliferative effect of Savolitinib. The results showed that Savolitinib potently inhibited cell growth only in cell lines with dysregulated c-Met, with EC50 values ranging from 0.6 nM/L to 12.5 nM/L. In contrast, it had no significant inhibitory effect on gastric cancer cell lines with normal c-Met expression [2] 2. Pharmacodynamic analysis of c-Met signaling: Hs746t gastric cancer cells were treated with 0.1 μM Savolitinib for 1 hour, and cell lysates were prepared for Western blot analysis. The results demonstrated that Savolitinib could effectively inhibit the phosphorylation of c-Met (mature form with a molecular weight of 145 kDa), thereby blocking the activation of the c-Met signaling pathway [2] 3. Structure-activity relationship study: A series of novel triazolopyrazine c-Met inhibitors were synthesized, and the structure-activity relationship was investigated. Savolitinib (compound 28 in the study) was identified as a potent and selective c-Met inhibitor, but no specific in vitro enzyme activity or cell activity data for this compound were detailed in reference [1] 4. Membrane permeability and efflux transport: Savolitinib exhibited high membrane permeability with a Papp (A>B) value of 28×10⁻⁶ cm/s across Caco-2 cell monolayers, and there was no efflux transport observed. Additionally, Savolitinib showed negligible inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), with an IC50 value greater than 17 μM [3] 5. Metabolic stability in vitro: The metabolic stability of Savolitinib was evaluated in liver microsomes and S9 fractions from rat, dog, monkey, and human. Five phase I metabolites were detected in liver microsomes and S9 fractions of different species, among which three major metabolites (M1 from demethylation, M2 from hydroxylation, M3 from mono-oxygenation) were mediated by multiple enzymes including CYP450s and aldehyde oxidase. Rat was found to be the most similar species to human in terms of in vitro metabolism and metabolite profile [3] 6. CYP enzyme inhibition/induction: Savolitinib showed no significant reversible or mechanism-based inhibition of CYP enzymes in human liver microsomes, and it did not induce the expression of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 in human hepatocytes [3] |
| ln Vivo |
The compound's half-time is 1.7 hours, and its clearance is 4.28 L/(h·kg) in a mouse pharmacokinetic study conducted on male ICR mice. The total plasma exposure is significantly higher despite its moderate oral bioavailability (F = 27.2%). In a U87MG subcutaneous xenograft model, volitinib exhibits dose-dependent inhibition of tumor growth[1]. Its treatment has minimal effect in a gastric cancer control model, but in 3/3 cMET-dysregulated gastric cancer patient-derived tumor xenograft models, it leads to pharmacodynamic modulation of c-MET signaling and strong tumor stasis[2]. The plasma protein binding rate of volitinib is moderate (60%–70% in rats, dogs, and humans; 40% in mice; 80% in monkeys). In rats, it is widely distributed to various organs, with high exposure in the liver and kidney and very low exposure in the brain, spinal cord, and testis in relation to the plasma level. Volitinib exhibits acceptable bioavailability at 27.2%, 42.6%, and 86.3%, respectively, and rapid oral absorption (Tmax<2.5 h) with high exposures in PK studies in mice, rats, and dogs. A low extraction ratio is evident from the in vivo clearance (CL), which is 11.0, 11.8, and 3.5 mL/min/kg in mice, rats, and dogs, respectively. For those species, the volume of distribution in steady state (Vss) is 0.4, 1.4, and 1.4 L/kg, respectively, suggesting a pattern of distribution that is moderate to low. In rats, vitexinib exhibits linear pharmacokinetics (PK) between 1 and 25 mg/kg, while in dogs, it is between 2 and 10 mg/kg. Dog food barely has an impact on its PK profile. However, in accordance with the in vitro metabolism result, volitinib in monkeys exhibits a noticeably high extraction ratio (CL=17.2 mL/min/kg). The low oral bioavailability (1.9%) of volitinib in monkeys is thought to be the consequence of excessive first-pass extraction, given the drug's rapid absorption (Tmax=1.9 h) and moderately low distribution (Vss=0.7 L/kg). Overall, volitinib's preclinical PK/ADME characteristics are favorable[3]. 1. Antitumor activity in human glioma xenograft model: Savolitinib exhibited favorable pharmacokinetic properties in mice and good antitumor activity in the human glioma xenograft model in athymic nude mice, but no specific data on tumor growth inhibition rate or tumor volume reduction were provided [1] 2. Antitumor activity in Hs746t gastric cancer xenograft model: Savolitinib was administered to nu/nu mice bearing established subcutaneous Hs746t xenografts by oral gavage once daily (qd) at different doses. The results showed that Savolitinib significantly inhibited tumor growth (P ≤ 0.001), but no specific tumor volume data or dose-response relationship were detailed. Pharmacodynamic analysis revealed that Savolitinib could inhibit phospho-c-Met in tumor tissues, and the inhibition rate was calculated using the formula: IR (%) = (1−OD450 drug treated/OD450 vehicle) × 100% [2] 3. Antitumor activity in gastric cancer PDX models: Savolitinib was administered by oral gavage once daily to nu/nu mice bearing established patient-derived gastric tumor fragments. In 3 out of 3 c-Met-dysregulated gastric cancer PDX models (SGC071, SGC184, SGC141), Savolitinib induced potent tumor stasis (P ≤ 0.001), while it had negligible activity in the c-Met-low polysomy PDX model (SGC070, P ≥ 0.05). Pharmacodynamic analysis confirmed that Savolitinib could modulate phospho-c-Met expression in tumor tissues (assessed by IHC staining before and after dosing), with no specific inhibition rate data [2] 4. Combination therapy with docetaxel: In Hs746t xenograft model and SGC184 PDX model, co-administration of Savolitinib with docetaxel enhanced the antitumor efficacy compared with single-agent treatment (P ≤ 0.001 for Hs746t, P ≤ 0.05 for SGC184). No specific tumor growth curves or regression rates were detailed [2] 5. In vivo distribution in rat: Savolitinib exhibited wide distribution to different organs in rat, with high exposures in liver and kidney, and very low concentrations in brain, spinal cord, and testis compared to plasma levels [3] 6. In vivo excretion in rat: Metabolism was the main elimination route of Savolitinib in rat, as the fecal, urinary, and biliary excretion of the parent drug accounted for less than 2% of the administered dose. A total of 16 phase I metabolites and 8 phase II metabolites were identified in plasma and excreta of rat, with M22 (a sulfate conjugate of monooxidized metabolite M5) being the dominant metabolite in all tested matrices. Demethylation to M2 and excretion in urine was also an important elimination pathway [3] 7. Pharmacokinetic parameters in animals: - Mouse: Rapid oral absorption (Tmax < 2.5 h), oral bioavailability of 27.2%, in vivo clearance (CL) of 11.0 mL/min/kg (low extraction ratio), steady-state volume of distribution (Vss) of 0.4 L/kg (moderate to low distribution) [3] - Rat: Rapid oral absorption (Tmax < 2.5 h), oral bioavailability of 42.6%, CL of 11.8 mL/min/kg (low extraction ratio), Vss of 1.4 L/kg (moderate to low distribution), linear pharmacokinetics in the dose range of 1 to 25 mg/kg [3] - Dog: Rapid oral absorption (Tmax < 2.5 h), oral bioavailability of 86.3%, CL of 3.5 mL/min/kg (low extraction ratio), Vss of 1.4 L/kg (moderate to low distribution), linear pharmacokinetics in the dose range of 2 to 10 mg/kg, and food had little effect on its PK profile [3] - Monkey: Rapid oral absorption (Tmax = 1.9 h), poor oral bioavailability of 1.9%, CL of 17.2 mL/min/kg (notably high extraction ratio), Vss of 0.7 L/kg (moderately low distribution). The low bioavailability was attributed to excessive first-pass extraction [3] |

| Additional Infomation |
Savolitinib is a member of the class of triazolopyrazines that is 1H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-b]pyrazine substituted by (1S)-1-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-6-yl)ethyl and 1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl groups at positions 1 and 6, respectively. It is a highly selective MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is approved in China for advanced NSCLC with MET exon 14 skipping mutations. It has a role as a c-Met tyrosine kinase inhibitor and an antineoplastic agent. It is a member of pyrazoles, a triazolopyrazine and an imidazopyridine. Savolitinib has been used in trials studying the treatment and health services research of Tumor, Food Effect, Gastric Cancer, Health Subjects, and Colorectal Cancer, among others. Savolitinib is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of the c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase with potential antineoplastic activity. Savolitinib selectively binds to and inhibits the activation of c-Met in an ATP-competitive manner, and disrupts c-Met signal transduction pathways. This may result in cell growth inhibition in tumors that overexpress the c-Met protein. C-Met encodes the hepatocyte growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase and plays an important role in tumor cell proliferation, survival, invasion, and metastasis, and tumor angiogenesis; this protein is overexpressed or mutated in a variety of cancers. Drug Indication Treatment of renal neoplasms Treatment of lung cancer 1. Background and development: HGF/c-Met signaling is implicated in human cancers, and pan-c-Met inhibitors have limitations. Savolitinib (Volitinib) was developed as a novel, potent, and selective small-molecule c-Met inhibitor through structure-guided drug design and structure-activity relationship studies [1] 2. Incidence of c-Met dysregulation in Chinese gastric cancer: In a cohort of 170 Chinese gastric cancer patients, the incidence of c-MET gene amplification was 6% and protein overexpression was 13% [2] 3. Clinical potential: Preclinical studies demonstrated that Savolitinib had potent anti-tumor activity in c-Met-dysregulated gastric cancer cell lines and PDX models, providing strong rationale for its clinical investigation as a therapeutic option for gastric cancer patients with amplified c-MET [2] 4. Overall preclinical profile: Savolitinib exhibited favorable preclinical PK/ADME properties, including high membrane permeability, low P-gp inhibition, no CYP enzyme inhibition/induction, linear pharmacokinetics in rat and dog, and acceptable bioavailability in mouse, rat, and dog [3] |
