Product Description
Neptinib (NEP010) is an orally active Afatinib derivative that has stronger anti-tumor activity than Afatinib through improved pharmacokinetics. Neptinib has a significant inhibitory effect on tumor growth in mouse non-small cell lung cancer transplant models with different EGFR mutations. Neptinib has a certain inhibitory effect on the EGFR kinase family, with IC50 values of 0.24 nM, 7.25 nM, 0.46 nM and 1.79 nM for EGFRwt, EGFRL858R/T790M, EGFRL858R and EGFRT790M respectively.
Neptinib (NEP010, CAS 2085843-51-0, MW 443.90, MF C22H23ClFN₅O2) is an orally active derivative of the EGFR inhibitor Afatinib. With improved pharmacokinetics, it demonstrates stronger anti-tumor activity than the parent drug. Neptinib is primarily studied for its efficacy against various EGFR mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
EGFR (WT) 0.24 nM (IC50) EGFRL858R/T790M 7.25 nM (IC50) EGFRL858R 0.46 nM (IC50) EGFRT790M 1.79 nM (IC50)
Neptinib targets the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase family, including wild-type and mutant forms (L858R, L858R/T790M, T790M, and likely exon 19 deletions). It binds irreversibly to the ATP-binding pocket via a covalent bond (Michael addition) to Cys797, blocking downstream signaling pathways (PI3K/AKT, RAS/MAPK).
ln Vitro
In vitro, Neptinib is a potent inhibitor of the EGFR kinase family, with IC₅0 values of 0.24 nM (EGFRwt), 7.25 nM (EGFRL858R/T790M), 0.46 nM (EGFRL858R), and 1.79 nM (EGFRT790M). It is therefore a potential fourth-generation EGFR-TKI with activity against the T790M and L858R/T790M resistance mutations, which cause resistance to first- and second-generation TKIs.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Neptinib has a significant inhibitory effect on tumor growth in mouse non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) transplant models with different EGFR mutations. Its improved pharmacokinetics (PK) compared to Afatinib leads to stronger antitumor activity. It is currently in preclinical research and has not yet entered human clinical trials.
Enzyme Assay
For EGFR kinase assays, recombinant EGFR enzymes (WT, L858R, T790M, L858R/T790M) are incubated with Neptinib (0.01-1000 nM) in kinase buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Triton X-100) with 10 uM ATP and a biotinylated peptide substrate for 30-60 min at 30degC. The reaction is stopped, and phosphorylated peptide is detected by TR-FRET. For off-target selectivity, the compound is tested against a panel of kinases (e.g., HER2, HER4, BLK, BMX, MKNK2, MAP4K5, SGK) at 100 nM.
Cell Assay
For cellular assays, NSCLC cell lines (PC9, H1975, HCC827, H3255) are seeded in 96-well plates (5,000-10,000 cells/well) and treated with Neptinib (0.1-1000 nM) for 72 h. Viability is assessed by CellTiter-Glo. IC₅0 is calculated. For apoptosis, cells are treated with Neptinib (10-500 nM) for 48 h and stained with Annexin V/PI. For Western blot, cells are lysed after 2-8 h of treatment and probed with anti-p-EGFR (Tyr1068), total EGFR, p-ERK, and total ERK.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo efficacy, female BALB/c nude mice (6-8 weeks) are implanted subcutaneously with EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells (e.g., H1975, L858R/T790M; PC9, exon 19 deletion). When tumors reach 150-200 mm3, mice are randomized (n=8-10). Neptinib is formulated in 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween-80, 45% saline, and administered orally at 10-50 mg/kg once daily for 14-28 days. Tumor volume is measured with calipers. A control group receives vehicle; a positive control receives Afatinib (10-20 mg/kg, oral). For PK/PD, blood and tumors are collected at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h post dose for compound concentration (LC-MS/MS) and p-EGFR analysis.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Neptinib is soluble in DMSO (100 mg/mL). It is orally bioavailable and has improved PK over Afatinib (higher Cmax, longer t½). The elimination half-life (t½) is 4-8 hours in mice. Its improved PK properties are attributed to its structural modifications, which reduce first-pass metabolism and increase systemic exposure.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Preclinical toxicology: Neptinib is well tolerated in mice at doses up to 50 mg/kg. No significant body weight loss or hepatotoxicity is reported. Skin rash and diarrhea (class effects of EGFR inhibitors) are observed at high doses (>100 mg/kg) but are less severe than with Afatinib. No genotoxicity.

Additional Infomation
Neptinib (NEP010) is a research compound in preclinical development for EGFR-mutant NSCLC, including T790M-resistant mutations. It is not an FDA-approved drug. Its improved PK and strong antitumor activity make it a promising candidate for further development. For research use only.
