Imatinib is a number of tyrosine kinase enzymes specific inhibitor. It act by specifically inhibiting a certain enzyme that is characteristic of a particular cancer cell, rather than non-specifically inhibiting and killing all rapidly dividing cells, and served as a model for other targeted therapy modalities through tyrosine kinase inhibition. In chronic myelogenous leukemia, the Philadelphia chromosome leads to a fusion protein of abl with bcr (breakpoint cluster region), termed bcr-abl. As this is now a constitutively active tyrosine kinase, it is used to decrease bcr-abl activity. It is being used as an experimental agent to suppress platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) by inhibiting its receptor (PDGF-Rβ).

Preparation method | Seeding BON-1 cells and NCI-H727 cells into flat-bottomed 96-well plates in triplicate and allowing to adhere overnight in 10% fetal bovine serum-supplemented DMEM or RPMI 1640 complete medium, respectively; the medium is then exchanged for serum-free medium (negative control) or serum-free medium containing serial dilutions of Imatinib. Determing the number of metabolically active cells by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, and measuring absorbance in a Packard Spectra microplate reader at 540 nm.after 48 hours (control cultures do not reach confluence), calculating growth inhibition using the following formula: inhibition rate = (1 − a / b) × 100%, where a and b are the absorbance values of the treated and control groups, respectively. |

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
