Popis: Purpose: The involvement of the EGF receptor (EGFr) family of receptors in cancers suggests that a selective inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase activity of the EGFr family could have a therapeutic effect. PD 0169414, an anilinoquinazoline, is a potent irreversible inhibitor of the EGFr family tyrosine kinase activity with IC50 values of 0.42 nM against the isolated EGF receptor, and 4.7 nM and 22 nM against EGF- and heregulin-mediated receptor phosphorylation in A431 and MDA-MB-453 cells, respectively. Methods and Results: Oral administration of 260 mg/kg per day PD 0169414 for 15 days to animals bearing advanced-stage A431 epidermoid carcinoma produced a 28.2-day delay in tumor growth and resulted in three complete and three partial tumor regressions in six animals. Toxicity at this dose level was limited to
