Avapritinib is a Type 1 kinase inhibitor that has demonstrated biochemical in vitro activity on the PDGFRA D842V and KIT D816V mutants associated with resistance to imatinib, sunitinib and regorafenib with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 0.24 nM and 0.27 nM, respectively, and greater potency against clinically relevant KIT exon 11, KIT exon 11/17 and KIT exon 17 mutants than against the KIT wild-type enzyme. |
