Title Ponatinib (AP24534) is a novel potent inhibitor of oncogenic RET mutants associated with thyroid cancer.
URL
Abstract Text The RET tyrosine kinase encoding gene acts as a dominantly transforming oncogene in thyroid carcinoma and other malignancies. Ponatinib (AP24534) is an oral ATP-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is in advanced clinical experimentation in leukemia.We tested whether ponatinib inhibited RET kinase and oncogenic activity.Ponatinib activity was studied by an in vitro RET immunocomplex kinase assay and immunoblotting. The effects of ponatinib on proliferation of human TT, MZ-CRC-1, and TPC-1 thyroid carcinoma cells, which harbor endogenous oncogenic RET alleles, and of NIH3T3 fibroblasts transfected with oncogenic RET mutants were determined. Ponatinib activity on TT cell xenografted tumors in athymic mice was measured.Ponatinib inhibited immunopurified RET kinase at the IC₅₀ of 25.8 nM (95% confidence interval [CI] = 23.15-28.77 nM). It also inhibited (IC₅₀ = 33.9 nM; 95% CI = 26.41-43.58 nM) kinase activity of RET/V804M, a RET mutant displaying resistance to other tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Ponatinib blunted phosphorylation of point-mutant and rearranged RET-derived oncoproteins and inhibited proliferation of RET-transformed fibroblasts and RET mutant thyroid carcinoma cells. Finally, after 3 weeks of treatment with ponatinib (30 mg/kg/d), the volume of TT cell (medullary thyroid carcinoma) xenografts was reduced from 133 mm³ to an unmeasurable size (difference = 133 mm³, 95% CI = -83 to 349 mm³) (P < .001). Ponatinib-treated TT cell tumors displayed a reduction in the mitotic index, RET phosphorylation, and signaling.Ponatinib is a potent inhibitor of RET kinase and has promising preclinical activity in models of RET-driven medullary thyroid carcinoma.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

Iclusig (ponatinib) is FDA-approved for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-positive ALL) as well as ABL1 T315I CML and ABL1 T315I Ph-positive ALL, and in combination with chemotherapy for newly diagnosed Ph-positive ALL (FDA.gov).
Gene Variant Impact Protein Effect Variant Description Associated with drug Resistance
RET D898V missense unknown RET D898V lies within the protein kinase domain of the Ret protein (UniProt.org). D898V has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 23526464), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Ret protein function is unknown (PubMed, Feb 2024).
RET L790F missense unknown RET L790F lies within the protein kinase domain of the Ret protein (UniProt.org). L790F results in ligand-independent phosphorylation of Ret (PMID: 15184865, PMID: 23526464), however, also results in similar cell proliferation and transformation activity to wild-type Ret in cell culture (PMID: 21810974, PMID: 32546069), and therefore, its effect on Ret protein function is unknown.
