| Targets |
Desmethyl Erlotinib targets the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase. As an active metabolite of erlotinib, it retains the ability to inhibit EGFR autophosphorylation in tumor cells. Its mechanism of action is similar to that of the parent drug, involving the inhibition of EGFR signaling pathways.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, desmethyl erlotinib is an active metabolite of erlotinib that inhibits EGFR tyrosine kinase activity. Erlotinib itself has an IC₅₀ of 2 nM for the inhibition of human EGFR and 20 nM for the inhibition of EGFR autophosphorylation in tumor cells. The metabolite contributes to the overall antiproliferative effect of the drug.
|
| ln Vivo |
In a pharmacokinetic investigation conducted in Wistar rats, desmethyl erlotinib showed a t1/2 of 11.96±2.01 h[1].
In vivo, desmethyl erlotinib is a bioactive metabolite of erlotinib. It is formed in the body and contributes to the therapeutic efficacy of the parent drug. Its pharmacokinetic profile is studied to understand the overall disposition and activity of erlotinib in patients. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for desmethyl erlotinib typically involve its use as a reference standard in LC-MS methods. The compound is used to quantify the metabolite in biological samples. Its kinase inhibitory activity can be measured using cell-free kinase assays with recombinant EGFR.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell assays, cancer cell lines expressing EGFR (e.g., A431, HCC827) are cultured and treated with desmethyl erlotinib. Cell proliferation is assessed by MTT or SRB assays. EGFR phosphorylation is measured by Western blot to confirm target inhibition. The compound's potency is compared to that of erlotinib.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, desmethyl erlotinib is measured in plasma and tissue samples after administration of erlotinib. The compound is quantified by LC-MS to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of the parent drug and its metabolite. Its contribution to the overall antitumor effect is evaluated in xenograft models.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.48 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.48 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
