Active Ingredient Description
Neratinib

Neratinib is an irreversible pan–erythroblastic leukaemia viral oncogene homolog (ERBB) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that blocks mitogenic growth factor signal transduction through covalent, high affinity binding to the ATP binding site of 3 epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs): EGFR (encoded by ERBB1), HER2 (encoded by ERBB2), and HER4 (encoded by ERBB4) or their active heterodimers with HER3 (encoded by ERBB3). This results in sustained inhibition of these growth promoting pathways with HER2-amplified or over-expressed, or HER2-mutant breast cancers.
