Combining Nonclinical Experiments with Translational PKPD Modeling to Differentiate Erlotinib and Gefitinib
We quantitatively compare the efficacy of two approved EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, erlotinib and gefitinib, based on in vivo and in vitro data and show how a modeling approach can be used to scale from animal to humans. Gefitinib shows a higher tumor uptake in cancer patients, and we explored the potential impact on pharmacologic and antitumor activity in in vitro and in xenograft mice. Tumor growth inhibition was monitored, and the pharmacokinetics (PK) in plasma and tumor, as well as temporal changes of phospho-Erk (pErk) signals were examined in patient-derived tumor xenograft mice. These data were integrated in a ...
