Use of Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Data to Develop the CDK4/6 Inhibitor Ribociclib for Patients with Advanced Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Ribociclib is an orally bioavailable, selective cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor. CDK4/6 inhibition by ribociclib leads to retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (Rb) reactivation, thereby restoring Rb-mediated cell cycle arrest. Ribociclib is approved for the treatment of patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-negative (HR+/HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC), at the dose of 600 mg once daily (QD) during cycles of 21 days on/7 days off, with optional dose reduction to 400 mg and 200 mg. Ribociclib is rapidly absorbed with a median time to reach maximum plasma concentration of 2.4 h, mean half-life of 32.0 h and oral bioavailability of 65.8% at 600 mg. It is eliminated mainly by hepatic metabolism (~ 84% of total elimination), mo
