Quizartinib (AC220) is an orally bioavailable, small molecule receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is being developed by Daiichi Sankyo Company (previously Ambit Biosciences) and Astellas Pharma as a treatment for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and advanced solid tumours. The highest affinity target identified for Quizartinib was FLT3. The only other kinases with binding constants within 10-fold that for FLT3 were the closely related receptor tyrosine kinases KIT, PDGFRA, PDGFRB, RET, and CSF1R. Kinase inhibition of (mutant) KIT, PDGFR and FLT3 isoforms by quizartinib leads to potent inhibition of cellular proliferation and induction of apoptosis in in vitro leukemia models as well as in native leukemia blasts treated ex vivo.

Sample Use Guides
60 mg daily was selected as the highest dose for continuous daily administration based on Phase 2 study data in relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukaemia patients. Quizartinib was well tolerated at daily doses ≤ 200 mg/day in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukaemia patients (Phase I study).
Route of Administration:
Oral
Both of the FLT3-ITD cell lines, MV4-11 and MOLM-14, were exquisitely sensitive to quizartinib treatment with cell viability IC50 values of 0.1 to 0.3 nmol/L measured at 72 hours. Interestingly, while an IC50 of 0.4 nmol/L could be measured after 72 hours in SEM-K2 cells, complete loss of viability required 5 to 7 days. In contrast, minimal or no loss of viability was observed in the FLT3-WT–expressing RS4;11 and THP-1 cells, even following 7 days of quizartinib treatment, consistent with reports that these lines are not dependent on FLT3 signaling for sustained cell growth
