Acalabrutinib Structural

What is Acalabrutinib?

Absorption

The geometric mean absolute bioavailability of acalabrutinib is 25% with a median time to peak plasma concentrations (Tmax) of 0.75 hours.

Toxicity

Data regarding the toxicity of acalabrutinib is not readily available.

Description

Acalabrutinib (ACP-196) is a selective second-generation Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor with an IC50 of 3 nM, which prevents the activation of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling pathway. ACP-196 has improved target specificity over ibrutinib with 323-, 94-, 19- and 9-fold selectivity over the other TEC kinase family members (ITK, TXK, BMX, and TEC, respectively) and no activity against EGFR.

The Uses of Acalabrutinib

Acalabrutinib, is an experimental anti-cancer drug and a selective Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. This kinase transmits signals from B-cell Receptor (BCR), and thus any genetic BTK mutation causes B-Cell immunodeficiency. Therefore, BTK inhibitors targeting B-cell signaling has shown great promise for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Background

To date, acalabrutinib has been used in trials studying the treatment of B-All, myelofibrosis, ovarian cancer, multiple myeloma, and Hodgkin lymphoma, among others.
As of October 31, 2017 the FDA approved Astra Zeneca's orally administered Calquence (acalabrutinib, capsules). This Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor indicated for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, and in adult patients with Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have already received at least one prior therapy. In August 2022, the FDA approved a new tablet formulation of Calquence, enabling the co-administration of this drug with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Unlike Calquence capsules, the co-administration of Calquence tablets and PPIs does not have an effect in the pharmacokinetics of acalabrutinib.
Also known as ACP-196, acalabrutinib is also considered a second generation BTK inhibitor because it was rationally designed to be more potent and selective than ibrutinib, theoretically expected to demonstrate fewer adverse effects owing to minimized bystander effects on targets other than BTK.
Nevertheless, acalabrutinib was approved under the FDA's accelerated approval pathway, which is based upon overall response rate and faciliates earlier approval of medicines that treat serious conditions or/and that fill an unmet medical need based on a surrogate endpoint. Continued approval for acalabrutinib's currently accepted indication may subsequently be contingent upon ongoing verification and description of clinical benefit in confimatory trials.
Furthermore, the FDA granted this medication Priority Review and Breakthrough Therapy designations. It also received Orphan Drug designation, which provides incentives to assist and encourage the development of drugs for rare diseases. At this time, more than 35 clinical trials across 40 countries with more than 2500 patients are underway or have been completed with regards to further research into better understanding and expanding the therapeutic uses of acalabrutinib .

Indications

Acalabrutinib is currently indicated for the treatment of adult patients with Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) who have received at least one prior therapy. It has also been recently approved for chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma.

Definition

ChEBI: Acalabrutinib is a member of the class of imidazopyrazines that is imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine substituted by 4-(pyridin-2-ylcarbamoyl)phenyl, (2S)-1-(but-2-ynoyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl, and amino groups at positions 1, 3 and 8, respectively. It is an irreversible second-generation Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor that is approved by the FDA for the treatment of adult patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who have received at least one prior therapy. It has a role as an EC 2.7.10.2 (non-specific protein-tyrosine kinase) inhibitor, an antineoplastic agent and an apoptosis inducer. It is a secondary carboxamide, a member of benzamides, a member of pyridines, an aromatic amine, a pyrrolidinecarboxamide, an imidazopyrazine, a ynone and a tertiary carboxamide.

General Description

Class: non-receptor tyrosine kinase
Treatment: CLL, SLL, MCL
Oral bioavailability = 25%
Elimination half-life = 0.9 h
Protein binding = 97.5%

Pharmacokinetics

Acalabrutinib is a Bruton Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor that prevents the proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion of B cells. It is taken every 12 hours and can cause other effects such as atrial fibrillation, other malignancies, cytopenia, hemorrhage, and infection.

in vitro

In the in vitro signaling assay on primary human CLL cells, acalabrutinib inhibits tyrosine phosphorylation of downstream targets of ERK, IKB, and AKT. Acalabrutinib demonstrates higher selectivity for BTK with IC50 determinations on nine kinases with a cysteine residue in the same position as BTK. Importantly, unlike ibrutinib, acalabrutinib does not inhibit EGFR, ITK, or TEC. acalabrutinib has no effect on EGFR phosphorylation on tyrosine residues Y1068 and Y1173. Compared with ibrutinib, acalabrutinib has much higher IC50(>1000 nM) or virtually no inhibition on kinase activities of ITK, EGFR, ERBB2, ERBB4, JAK3, BLK, FGR, FYN, HCK, LCK, LYN, SRC, and YES1.

in vivo

Oral administration of ACP-196 in mice results in dose-dependent inhibition of anti-IgM-induced CD86 expression in CD19+ splenocytes with an ED50 of 0.34 mg/kg compared to 0.91 mg/kg for ibrutinib. A similar model is used to compare the duration of Btk inhibition after a single oral dose of 25 mg/kg. ACP-196 inhibits CD86 expression >90% at 3h postdose.

Metabolism

Acalabrutinib is mainly metabolized by CYP3A enzymes. ACP-5862 is identified to be the major active metabolite in plasma with a geometric mean exposure (AUC) that is about 2-3 times greater than the exposure of acalabrutinib. ACP-5862 is about 50% less potent than acalabrutinib in regards to the inhibition of BTK.

Metabolism

Acalabrutinib has an absolute bioavailability of 25% and an elimination half-life of 0.9 h. Because of its better oral bioavailability but much shorter half-life than ibrutinib, acalabrutinib is taken at a lower dosage (100 mg) than ibrutinib (420 mg) but twice a day (vs. QD for ibrutinib). The major circulating metabolite in the plasma is the pyrrolidine ring-opened product 1. This metabolite also exhibited covalent BTK inhibition with potency 2-fold lower than acalabrutinib, and its kinase selectivity profile is similar to acalabrutinib. This active metabolite has a half-life of 6.9 h, much longer than the parent drug. However, the extent of its contribution to on-target covalent inhibition of BTK in humans remains to be established.
