Approved drug
tucatinib is an approved drug (FDA (2020), EMA (2021))
Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: Tucatinib is an orally bioavailable ERBB2 (HER2) receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that was developed as a novel antineoplastic agent by Seattle Genetics [2]. The chemical structure is claimed as Example 11 in Array Biopharma patent WO2007059257A2 [3], and was exemplified as ARRY-380 in the later patent WO2013056183A1 [1]. Tucatinib contains a quinazoline core that is conserved in other tyrosine kinase inhibitors including lapatinib, erlotinib, and gefitinib [2].
The INN tucatinib replaced the earlier INN irbinitinib that was associated with this chemical entity.

Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Phase 1 clinical trial data indicated that tucatinib produced marked antitumor activity in heavily pretreated HER2+ metastatic breast cancer patients, and some of the side effects were diminished in comparison to current dual HER2/EGFR inhibitors [4]. Several Phase 2 studies in breast cancer and other cancers with ERBB2 gene amplification were undertaken.

A FDA New Drug Application for tucatinib for locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer was submitted by Seattle Genetics in December 2019. Full FDA approval was granted in April 2020. Under this approval tucatinib is indicated for advanced unresectable or metastatic HER2+ breast cancer ( including brain metastases) in combination with trastuzumab and capecitabine, in patients who have received ≥1 prior anti-HER2-based regimens in the metastatic setting.
