4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

For the continued treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer after failure of either platinum-based or docetaxel chemotherapies.


FDA Label


Iressa is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer with activating mutations of epidermal-growth-factor-receptor tyrosine kinase.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Gefitinib inhibits the intracellular phosphorylation of numerous tyrosine kinases associated with transmembrane cell surface receptors, including the tyrosine kinases associated with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR-TK). EGFR is expressed on the cell surface of many normal cells and cancer cells.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Antineoplastic Agents

Substances that inhibit or prevent the proliferation of NEOPLASMS. (See all compounds classified as Antineoplastic Agents.)


Protein Kinase Inhibitors

Agents that inhibit PROTEIN KINASES. (See all compounds classified as Protein Kinase Inhibitors.)

5.5 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Absorbed slowly after oral administration with a mean bioavailability of 60%. Peak plasma levels occurs 3-7 hours post-administration. Food does not affect the bioavailability of gefitinib.


Route of Elimination

Elimination is by metabolism (primarily CYP3A4) and excretion in feces. Excretion is predominantly via the feces (86%), with renal elimination of drug and metabolites accounting for less than 4% of the administered dose.


Volume of Distribution

1400 L [IV administration]


Clearance

595 mL/min [IV administration]


5.6 Metabolism/Metabolites

Primarily hepatic via CYP3A4. Three sites of biotransformation have been identified: metabolism of the N-propoxymorpholino-group, demethylation of the methoxy-substituent on the quinazoline, and oxidative defluorination of the halogenated phenyl group.


Gefitinib has known human metabolites that include 4-Defluoro-4-hydroxy Gefitinib and O-Desmethyl Gefitinib.

5.7 Biological Half-Life

48 hours [IV administration]


5.8 Mechanism of Action

Gefitinib is an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase that binds to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding site of the enzyme. EGFR is often shown to be overexpressed in certain human carcinoma cells, such as lung and breast cancer cells. Overexpression leads to enhanced activation of the anti-apoptotic Ras signal transduction cascades, subsequently resulting in increased survival of cancer cells and uncontrolled cell proliferation. Gefitinib is the first selective inhibitor of the EGFR tyrosine kinase which is also referred to as Her1 or ErbB-1. By inhibiting EGFR tyrosine kinase, the downstream signaling cascades are also inhibited, resulting in inhibited malignant cell proliferation.
