Tucatinib

Tucatinib

Overview + Rationale

  • Tucatinib is an orally bioavailable, reversible, highly selective small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor being investigated in multiple human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpressed/amplified and HER2 mutated cancers.1,2
    • In cell signaling assays, tucatinib exhibits thousandfold greater selectivity for the HER2 receptor relative to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).1
    • HER2 selectivity may decrease the potential for EGFR-related toxicities (eg, diarrhea, skin rash).1
    • Preclinical data suggest that tucatinib increases surface HER2 expression.2
  • HER2 is overexpressed in multiple cancers, including breast, colorectal, ovarian, lung, gastroesophageal, and bladder
