Heregulin-stimulated HER3 phosphorylation can be prevented by afatinib oxalate at a concentration of 100 nM [1]. Effectively suppressing the anchorage-independent proliferation of NIH-3T3 cells ectopically expressing EGFR mutations as well as the cell proliferation of H1666, H3255, and NCI 1975 cells is achieved with the use of Afatinib oxalate (0-10000 nM) [1]. SLMT-1, EC-1, HKESC-1, and HKESC-2 cells show growth suppression in response to Afatinib oxalate (48–72 hours) [2]. In ESCC cell lines, afatinib oxalate (0–1 μM, 24-48 hours) suppresses the AKT and MAPK pathways as well as EGFR and AKT phosphorylation [2]. HKESC-2 and EC-1 experience G0/G1 cell cycle arrest when exposed to afatinib oxalate (0–1 μM) for 16–48 hours [2]. In HKESC-2 and EC-1, afatinib oxalate (0–1 μM, 24-48 hours) efficiently causes apoptosis [2].

ln Vivo |
EGFR, HER2, HER3, and AKT phosphorylation were all significantly downregulated and tumor regression was observed when oral afatinib oxalate (0–20 mg/kg) was administered daily for 25 days [1]. Strongly inhibiting the growth of HKESC-2 tumors was afatinib oxalate (15 mg/kg), taken orally for 5 days, followed by 2 days off, for a duration of 2 weeks [2].

Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Athymic NMRI-nu/nu female mice (21–31 g, 5 to 6 weeks old, transgenic mouse lung cancer model and xenograft model) [1]
Doses: 15 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg given Medication: Orally administered daily for 25 days Experimental Results: In a standard xenograft model of the epidermoid cancer cell line A431, tumors Dramatically regressed with a cumulative treatment/control tumor volume ratio (T/C ratio) of 2%, and EGFR and AKT downregulates phosphorylation. Induced regression of large tumors in this HER2-driven model and effectively controlled xenograft tumor formation in the NCIH1975 cell line expressing EGFR L858R/T790M, with a T/C value of 12% at a dose of 20 mg/kg. After 4 weeks of treatment, the tumor was diminished by more than 50%. Downregulates EGFR, HER2 and HER3 phosphorylation. Animal/Disease Models: Sixweeks old female athymic nude mice (nu/nu) (16-20 g)[2] Doses: 15 mg/kg Route of Administration: po (oral gavage), according to a schedule of 5 days plus 2 days of rest , lasted for two weeks.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations

Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
