/BOXED WARNING/ WARNING: VASCULAR OCCLUSION, HEART FAILURE, and HEPATOTOXICITY. Vascular Occlusion: Arterial and venous thrombosis and occlusions have occurred in at least 27% of Iclusig treated patients, including fatal myocardial infarction, stroke, stenosis of large arterial vessels of the brain, severe peripheral vascular disease, and the need for urgent revascularization procedures. Patients with and without cardiovascular risk factors, including patients age 50 years or younger, experienced these events. Monitor for evidence of thromboembolism and vascular occlusion. Interrupt or stop Iclusig immediately for vascular occlusion. A benefit-risk consideration should guide a decision to restart Iclusig therapy. Heart Failure: Heart failure, including fatalities, occurred in 8% of Iclusig-treated patients. Monitor cardiac function. Interrupt or stop Iclusig for new or worsening heart failure. Hepatotoxicity: Hepatotoxicity, liver failure and death have occurred in Iclusig-treated patients. Monitor hepatic function. Interrupt Iclusig if hepatotoxicity is suspected.

Hepatotoxicity and acute hepatic failure with fatal outcome have been reported in patients receiving ponatinib; liver biopsies predominantly showed hepatocellular necrosis.6 Fulminant hepatic failure resulting in death following 1 week of therapy was reported in one ponatinib-treated patient in the premarketing clinical trial. Elevations in serum aminotransferase (ALT or AST) concentrations were reported in 56% of patients receiving ponatinib in the premarketing clinical trial; median time to onset of these elevations was 46 days.6 Severe hepatotoxicity has been reported in all the disease cohorts; however, fatal cases have only been reported in patients with blast phase chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) or Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphocytic (lymphoblastic) leukemia (ALL).
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2013; Drug Information 2013. Bethesda, MD. 2013
Arterial thromboembolic events, sometimes serious or fatal, have been reported in patients receiving ponatinib. Specifically, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and peripheral vascular thrombosis, including fatal myocardial infarction and stroke, have occurred during ponatinib therapy. In the premarketing clinical trial, arterial thromboembolic events of any grade were reported in 11% of patients receiving ponatinib. Serious arterial thrombosis occurred in 8% of ponatinib-treated patients, and approximately 4.7% of patients required a revascularization procedure. The most common arterial thromboembolic event was myocardial infarction (MI) or worsening coronary artery disease; approximately half of these patients developed congestive heart failure concurrent with or subsequent to the myocardial ischemic event. Serious cerebrovascular events, including hemorrhagic conversion of the initial ischemic event and stenosis of large arterial vessels of the brain (e.g., carotid, vertebral, middle cerebral artery), have been reported. In the premarketing clinical trial, 3 of 449 ponatinib-treated patients developed digital or distal extremity necrosis; amputation was required in 2 patients with concomitant diabetes mellitus and peripheral arterial disease. Most (88%) patients who experienced a serious arterial thromboembolic event had one or more cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., MI, coronary artery disease, angina, stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, cigarette smoking). If an arterial thromboembolic event occurs in a patient receiving ponatinib, interruption or discontinuance of therapy may be necessary. Venous thromboembolic events, including deep-vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, portal vein thrombosis, and retinal vein thrombosis, also have been reported in patients receiving ponatinib. Dosage modification or discontinuance of ponatinib therapy should be considered in patients who develop serious venous thromboembolism.

Ponatinib may cause fetal harm; the drug has been shown to be embryotoxic and fetotoxic in animals. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Pregnancy should be avoided during therapy. If used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while receiving ponatinib, the patient should be apprised of the potential fetal hazard.

Absorption
The absolute bioavailability of ponatinib is unknown. Peak concentrations of ponatinib are observed within 6 hours after Iclusig oral administration. Food does not affect absorption of food. The aqueous solubility of ponatinib is pH dependent, with higher pH resulting in lower solubility. When 45 mg of ponatinib is given to cancer patients, the pharmacokinetic parameters are as follows: Cmax = 73 ng/mL; AUC = 1253 nghr/mL;
Route of Elimination
Ponatinib is mainly eliminated via feces. Following a single oral dose of [14C]-labeled ponatinib, approximately 87% of the radioactive dose is recovered in the feces and approximately 5% in the urine.
Volume of Distribution
After oral administration of 45 mg ponatinib once daily for 28 days in cancer patients, the steady state volume of distribution is 1223 L. Ponatinib is a weak substrate for P-gp and ABCG2.
Ponatinib is greater than 99% bound to plasma proteins in vitro. The geometric mean (CV%) apparent steady state volume of distribution is 1223 liters (102%) following oral administration of Iclusig 45 mg once daily for 28 days in patients with cancer. Ponatinib is a weak substrate for both P-gp and ABCG2 [also known as BCRP] in vitro.

At least 64% of a ponatinib dose undergoes phase I and phase II metabolism. CYP3A4 and to a lesser extent CYP2C8, CYP2D6 and CYP3A5 are involved in the phase I metabolism of ponatinib in vitro. Ponatinib is also metabolized by esterases and/or amidases.
In vivo, ponatinib was hydrolysed by non-specific esterases or amidases at the amide bond to an acid and aniline. AP24600 was the major metabolite in rat and human plasma but was a trace level metabolite in monkey plasma. In rat, monkey and human plasma, the amide hydrolysis metabolite AP24600 was 263%, < 1% and 58.4% of the ponatinib levels. In rats, the metabolism of ponatinib was mainly to the N-desmethyl metabolite AP24567, which was excreted in feces, and AP24600 (and its downstream metabolites) which was excreted in urine. In monkey feces drug-related radioactivity was present mostly as the parent compound or as N-desmethyl ponatinib (M42), hydroxy ponatinib (M31), a double lactam at piperazine moiety (M35) and N-oxide ponatinib (M36). In human feces, ponatinib accounted for 23.7% of the radioactivity and there was extensive metabolism of ponatinib. Other metabolites identified in human feces were hydroxy ponatinib, N-desmethyl ponatinib, and several minor metabolites resulting from two or more modifications.

Ponatinib is a multi-target kinase inhibitor. Its primary cellular target is the Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase protein which is constitutively active and promotes the progression of CML. This protein arises from the fused Bcr and Abl gene- what is commonly known as the Philadelphia chromosome. Ponatinib is unique in that it is especially useful in the treatment of resistant CML because it inhibits the tyrosine kinase activity of Abl and T315I mutant kinases. The T315I mutation confers resistance in cells as it prevents other Bcr-Abl inhibitors from binding to the Abl kinase. Other targets that ponatinib inhibits are members of the VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, EPH receptors and SRC families of kinases, and KIT, RET, TIE2, and FLT3. A decrease in tumour size expressing native or T315I mutant BCR-ABL have been observed in rats.
Ponatinib is a kinase inhibitor. Ponatinib inhibited the in vitro tyrosine kinase activity of ABL and T315I mutant ABL with IC50 concentrations of 0.4 and 2.0 nM, respectively. Ponatinib inhibited the in vitro activity of additional kinases with IC50 concentrations between 0.1 and 20 nM, including members of the VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, EPH receptors and SRC families of kinases, and KIT, RET, TIE2, and FLT3. Ponatinib inhibited the in vitro viability of cells expressing native or mutant BCR-ABL, including T315I. In mice, treatment with ponatinib reduced the size of tumors expressing native or T315I mutant BCR-ABL when compared to controls.

Gain-of-function mutations of membrane receptor tyrosine kinase KIT especially gate-keeper D816V point mutation in KIT render kinase auto-activation, disease progression, and poor prognosis. D816V KIT is found in -80% of the patients of systemic mastocytosis (SM), and is resistant to the first and the second generations of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The purpose of this investigation was aimed at exploring whether ponatinib (AP24534), a novel effective TKI against T315I Bcr-Abl was active against D816V KIT. /The researchers/ discovered that ponatinib abrogated the phosphorylation of KIT harboring either V560G (sensitive to imatinib) or D816V mutation (resistant to imatinib) and the downstream signaling transduction. Ponatinib inhibited the growth of D816V KIT expressing cells in culture and nude mouse xenografted tumor. Ponatinib triggered apoptosis by inducing the release of cytochrome c and AIF, downregulation of Mcl-1. Furthermore, ponatinib abrogated the phosphorylation of beta-catenin at site Y654, suppressed the translocation of beta-catenin, inhibited the transcription and DNA binding of TCF and the expression of its targets (e.g. Axin2, c-Myc, and cyclin D1). Moreover, ponatinib was highly active against xenografted D816V KIT tumors in nude mice and significantly prolonged the survival of mice with aggressive SM or mast cell leukemia by impeding the expansion and infiltration of mast cells with imatinib-resistant D814Y KIT. ...

The BCR-ABL inhibitor imatinib has revolutionized the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. However, drug resistance caused by kinase domain mutations has necessitated the development of new mutation-resistant inhibitors, most recently against the T315I gatekeeper residue mutation. Ponatinib (AP24534) inhibits both native and mutant BCR-ABL, including T315I, acting as a pan-BCR-ABL inhibitor. Here, we undertook a combined crystallographic and structure-activity relationship analysis on ponatinib to understand this unique profile. While the ethynyl linker is a key inhibitor functionality that interacts with the gatekeeper, virtually all other components of ponatinib play an essential role in its T315I inhibitory activity. The extensive network of optimized molecular contacts found in the DFG-out binding mode leads to high potency and renders binding less susceptible to disruption by single point mutations. The inhibitory mechanism exemplified by ponatinib may have broad relevance to designing inhibitors against other kinases with mutated gatekeeper residues.

Ponatinib is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potent activity against BCR-ABL with mutations, including T315I, and also against fms-like tyrosine kinase 3. We tested interactions between ponatinib at pharmacologically relevant concentrations of 50 to 200 nmol/L and the MDR-associated ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins ABCB1, ABCC1, and ABCG2. Ponatinib enhanced uptake of substrates of ABCG2 and ABCB1, but not ABCC1, in cells overexpressing these proteins, with a greater effect on ABCG2 than on ABCB1. Ponatinib potently inhibited [(125)I]-IAAP binding to ABCG2 and ABCB1, indicating binding to their drug substrate sites, with IC(50) values of 0.04 and 0.63 umol/L, respectively. Ponatinib stimulated ABCG2 ATPase activity in a concentration-dependent manner and stimulated ABCB1 ATPase activity at low concentrations, consistent with it being a substrate of both proteins at pharmacologically relevant concentrations. The ponatinib IC(50) values of BCR-ABL-expressing K562 cells transfected with ABCB1 and ABCG2 were approximately the same as and 2-fold higher than that of K562, respectively, consistent with ponatinib being a substrate of both proteins, but inhibiting its own transport, and resistance was also attenuated to a small degree by ponatinib-induced downregulation of ABCB1 and ABCG2 cell-surface expression on resistant K562 cells. Ponatinib at pharmacologically relevant concentrations produced synergistic cytotoxicity with ABCB1 and ABCG2 substrate chemotherapy drugs and enhanced apoptosis induced by these drugs, including daunorubicin, mitoxantrone, topotecan, and flavopiridol, in cells overexpressing these transport proteins. Combinations of ponatinib and chemotherapy drugs warrant further testing.
