Product Description:

Lenvatinib is a thyroid cancer drug developed by Eisai Corporation of Japan (Code: E7080), belonging to the inhibitor of oral multi-receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) and can inhibit the kinase activity of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) Receptors VEGFR1 (FLT1), VEGFR2 (KDR), and VEGFR3 (FLT4). Lenvatinib can also inhibit the involvement of other RTKs in pathological angiogenesis, tumor growth, and cancer progression except for their normal cellular functions including fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors FGFR1, 2, 3, and 4; platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR [alpha]), KIT, and RET.
[Indications]: Lenvatinib is suitable for the treatment of patients of thyroid cancer of local recurrence or metastasis type, progressivity type and radioactive iodine-refractory differentiated type.
On February 13, 2015, the US FDA approved anticancer drug Lenvatinib for the treatment of thyroid cancer. Lenvatinib is a multi-target enzyme inhibitor, being capable of inhibiting the VEGFR2 and VEGFR3 (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor). The trade name of Lenvatinib is Lenvima.
On May 20, 2015, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) approved Lenvatinib for the treatment of invasive, locally advanced or metastatic differentiated (papillary, follicular, Hurthle type) thyroid cancer (DTC). In the trial, the median survival time for patients of radioactive iodine-refractory DTC treated with Lenvatinib was 18 months while the value for patients who take placebo is only 3 months.
In Europe, Lenvatinib will compete with Bayer's kinase inhibitor sorafenib (trade name: Nexavar), which had been respectively approved by EMA and the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of radioactive iodine refractory DTC in 2014 and 2013, respectively. At the time, Sorafenib had been reported to be the first targeted therapeutics to be marketed for the past 40 years in the treatment of refractory DTCs. The marketing applications of Lenvatinib in Switzerland, South Korea, Canada, Singapore, Russia, Australia and Brazil are also under review.
Information regarding the pharmacological effects, clinical evaluation, and indication of the thyroid cancer drug Lenvatinib were compiled and edited by Tongtong from Chemicalbook (2015-09-22)

Function

E7080 (Lenvatinib) is a multi-target inhibitor of VEGFR2 and VEGFR3 with IC50 of 4 nM and 5.2 nM, respectively.
