Icotinib is a potent and specific EGFR inhibitor with IC50 of 5 nM, including the EGFR, EGFR(L858R), EGFR(L861Q), EGFR(T790M) and EGFR(T790M, L858R).<br>Icotinib inhibits EGFR activity in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 5 nM and complete inhibition at 62.5 nM. Icotinib selectively solely inhibits the EGFR members including the wild type and mutants with inhibition efficacies of 61-99%. Icotinib blocks EGFR-mediated intracellular tyrosine phosphorylation in human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Meanwhile, in our proliferation assay performed on A431, BGC-823, A549, H460, HCT8, KB and Bel-7402 cell lines, we found that the relative sensitivity of cell lines to Icotinib is A431 > BGC-823 > A549 > H460 > KB > HCT8 and Bel-7402. Icotinib exhibits a broad spectrum of antitumor activity and it is especially effective against tumors expressing higher levels of EGFR.<br>Icotinib shows an antitumor effect in different types of xenografts. Icotinib inhibits tumor growth at a rate of 51.5%, 31.0% and 67.4% in the A431, A549 and H460 xenografts at a dose of 120 mg/kg, respectively.
