| Targets |
Lenvatinib targets multiple receptor tyrosine kinases including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors 1-3 (VEGFR1-3), fibroblast growth factor receptors 1-4 (FGFR1-4), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), KIT, and RET.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as tracers for quantification throughout the drug development process. Due to its potential to alter the pharmacokinetic and metabolic characteristics of medications, deuteration has drawn attention[1].
Lenvatinib shows potent antitumor activities by simultaneously blocking multiple pro-angiogenic pathways. In vitro studies demonstrate concentration-dependent inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation. |
| ln Vivo |
Lenvatinib demonstrates significant efficacy in various cancer models including medullary thyroid cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and renal cell carcinoma. In vivo studies have confirmed its ability to inhibit angiogenesis and tumor growth, leading to clinical approval.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cell tyrosine kinase activity assays are performed using recombinant human VEGFR2 or FGFR1 kinase domains in 96-well plates. The reaction buffer contains 50 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM MnCl2, 1 mM DTT, and 0.01% Tween-20. Lenvatinib-d4 is added at concentrations from 0.1 nM to 10 uM, followed by addition of 10 uM ATP and a biotinylated peptide substrate. After incubation at 30degC for 60 minutes, the reaction is terminated with EDTA. Streptavidin-conjugated donor beads and anti-phosphotyrosine acceptor beads are added for TR-FRET detection. The signal is measured on a plate reader with excitation/emission wavelengths of 340/615 nm, and IC50 values are calculated from the dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays are performed using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) or cancer cell lines such as HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma), K1 (thyroid cancer), or ACHN (renal carcinoma). For proliferation assays, 5,000-10,000 cells/well are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with Lenvatinib-d4 at concentrations of 0.001-10 uM for 72 hours. Cell viability is measured using CellTiter-Glo or MTS assays. For angiogenesis assays, HUVECs are seeded on Matrigel-coated plates and tube formation is assessed after 6-8 hours of treatment. Migration is evaluated using scratch wound healing assays or Boyden chamber assays (8 microm pore size, 4-hour migration). Apoptosis is assessed by caspase-3/7 activity assay or annexin V/PI staining followed by flow cytometry.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo efficacy studies utilize various xenograft models. Female athymic nude mice (6-8 weeks old) are subcutaneously implanted with 5×10⁶ tumor cells (e.g., HepG2, K1, or 786-O cells). When tumors reach 150-200 mm3, mice are randomized into treatment groups (n=8-10 per group). Lenvatinib-d4 is administered orally at doses of 10-30 mg/kg once daily for 14-28 days. Tumor volumes are measured twice weekly using calipers (V = length × width2 × 0.5). Body weight and clinical signs are monitored daily. At study endpoint, tumors are excised, weighed, and processed for immunohistochemistry staining for CD31 (endothelial marker), Ki-67 (proliferation), and TUNEL (apoptosis). Plasma levels of angiogenic factors (VEGF, FGF) may also be measured by ELISA.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
In humans, lenvatinib is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract with an observed tmax typically between 1 and 4 hours. Food intake prolongs tmax to 3-7 hours. Oral clearance ranges from 4.2 to 7.1 L/h for doses between 0.8 and 32 mg. The terminal elimination half-life is approximately 28 hours in humans, allowing once-daily dosing. Lenvatinib is highly protein bound (>98%) primarily to albumin. Metabolism occurs mainly via CYP3A4, producing pharmacologically active metabolites. The deuterated form is used as an internal standard for LC-MS/MS quantification.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In clinical use, lenvatinib is associated with several adverse effects including hypertension (occurring in >70% of patients), fatigue, diarrhea, decreased appetite, nausea, weight loss, and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia. More serious toxicities include cardiac dysfunction, hepatic toxicity (elevated ALT/AST), renal impairment, and gastrointestinal perforation. The drug carries warnings for arterial thromboembolic events and hemorrhage. Dose reduction or interruption is required for management of severe toxicity. The LD50 in animals has not been determined for clinical safety reasons, but toxicological studies show dose-dependent effects on multiple organ systems.

| Additional Infomation |
Lenvatinib has received regulatory approval from the FDA and EMA for the treatment of advanced or metastatic thyroid cancer (2015), unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (2018), advanced renal cell carcinoma in combination with everolimus or pembrolizumab (2016/2021), and advanced endometrial carcinoma in combination with pembrolizumab (2019). The recommended dose varies by indication and patient weight (e.g., 24 mg for thyroid cancer, 12 mg or 8 mg for HCC based on body weight). Lenvatinib-d4 is used exclusively as an internal standard for pharmacokinetic studies and bioanalysis. Phase II and III clinical trials have established lenvatinib as a standard-of-care for multiple cancer types.
