Nintedanib esylate (BIBF 1120 esylate) is a potent triple angiokinase inhibitor for VEGFR1/2/3, FGFR1/2/3 and PDGFRα/β with IC50s of 34 nM/13 nM/13 nM, 69 nM/37 nM/108 nM and 59 nM/65 nM, respectively.
Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) binds to the ATP-binding site in the cleft between the amino and carboxy terminal lobes of the kinase domain. Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) inhibits proliferation of PDGF-BB stimulated BRPs with EC50 of 79 nM in cell assays. Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) (100 nM) blocks activation of MAPK after stimulation with 5% serum plus PDGF-BB. Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) prevents PDGF-BB stimulated proliferation with an EC50 of 69 nM in cultures of human vascular smooth muscle cells (HUASMC)[1].
Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) (25-100 mg/kg daily p.o.) is highly active in all tumor models, including human tumor xenografts growing in nude mice and a syngeneic rat tumor model. This is evident in the magnetic resonance imaging of tumor perfusion after 3 days, reducing vessel density and vessel integrity after 5 days, and profound growth inhibition[1]. Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) is orally available and displays encouraging efficacy in in vivo tumor models while being well tolerated[2].
