Description

Brivanib is a pyrrolotriazine-based compound and an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) with potential antineoplastic activity. It specifically targets and strongly binds to human VEGFR-2, a tyrosine kinase receptor and pro-angiogenic growth factor expressed almost exclusively on vascular endothelial cells. Blockade of VEGFR-2 by this agent may lead to an inhibition of VEGF-stimulated endothelial cell migration and proliferation, thereby inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. Brivanib has a moderate potency compared to VEGFR-2 against VEGFR-1 and FGFR-1 as well. Brivanib is suggested to be efficient in treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). As first-line and as second-line therapy brivanib demonstrated promising antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in patients with advanced, unresectable HCC in phase II clinical trials. On 3 march 2011, orphan designation was granted by the European Commission to Bristol-Myers Squibb for brivanib alaninate for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.[

800 mg brivanib once daily until disease progression or toxicity treatment for liver cancer in Asian patients who have failed or could not tolerate sorafenib therapy
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
The SK-HEP1 and HepG2 cells were used to investigate the effects of brivanib on the VEGFR-2 and FGFR-1 signaling pathways in vitro.To study the effects of brivanib treatment on VEGF- and bFGF-stimulated activation of Akt and ERK1/2 pathways, SK-HEP1 and HepG2 cells were treated with 2 uM brivanib for 24 h and then stimulated with 40 ng/mL VEGF or bFGF. In addition, brivanib SK-HEP1 cells were also stimulated with IGF-1 for 15 min. The cells were lysed and the lysates were analyzed for levels of the effector proteins, including the serine/threonine kinase Akt and ERK1/2.
