• LC Labs XP/XR™ — X-ray Proven/X-ray Referenced Structure™. The chemical structure of this new Bosutinib has been unambiguously proven by single-crystal X-ray crytallography.
• Bosutinib (SKI-606) is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor, more potent than imatinib. Bosutinib can overcome not only Bcr-Abl-dependent mechanisms of resistance, but also those that are Bcr-Abl-independent. It is used to treat patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) who demonstrate resistance to imatinib or develop resistance during treatment. Jabbour, E., et al. \"New targeted therapies for chronic myelogenous leukemia: opportunities to overcome imatinib resistance.\" Semin. Hematol. 44: 25-31 (2007).
• Bosutinib is an active inhibitor of Bcr-Abl in several chronic myelogenous leukemia cell lines and transfectants. The IC50 values are in the low nanomolar range, which is 10- to 100-fold lower than those obtained with imatinib. Bosutinib has activity in cells where resistance to imatinib resulted from BCR-ABL gene amplification and in three of four Bcr-Abl point mutants examined. In in vivo experiments bosutinib retains activity in models where resistance is not caused by mutations, as well as in cells carrying the Y253F, E255K, and D276G mutations. Bosutinib binds to a different conformation of Bcr-Abl than does imatinib.

• Bosutinib inhibits tumor cell proliferation, angiogenesis, growth factor expression and Src-mediated signaling pathways in vivo. Jallal, H., et al. \"A Src/Abl kinase inhibitor, SKI-606, blocks breast cancer invasion, growth, and metastasis in vitro and in vivo.\" Cancer Res. 67: 1580-1588 (2007).
• Bosutinib inhibited src-dependent activation of beta-catenin and blocked beta-catenin nuclear function by reducing its binding to the TCF4 transcription factor and its trans-activating ability in colorectal cancer cells. Coluccia, A.M., et al. \"SKI-606 decreases growth and motility of colorectal cancer cells by preventing pp60(c-Src)-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of beta-catenin and its nuclear signaling.\" Cancer Res. 66: 2279-2286 (2006).
• Bosutinib inhibited Src autophosphorylation in HT29 cells (IC50 = 0.25 µM). Although submicromolar concentrations of bosutinib inhibited HT29 cell colony formation in soft agar, antiproliferative activity on plastic did not correlate with Src inhibition in either HT29 or Colo205 cells (IC50s, 1.5 and 2.5 µM, respectively).

• Bosutinib is the active ingredient in the drug sold under the trade name Bosulif®. Bosulif® is currently approved in at least one country for use in patients with accelerated or blast phase Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia with intolerance or resistance to prior therapy. NOTE: THE BOSUTINIB, FREE BASE RESEARCH COMPOUND SOLD BY LC LABORATORIES IS NOT BOSULIF® AND IS NOT FOR HUMAN USE.
• We note that bosutinib is offered for sale by another vendor under the name \"Bosutinib Methanoate\", by which they probably mean \"methanolate\" (\"methanoate\" means \"formate ester\", which is definitely not correct here). This \"methanolate\" nomenclature is somewhat ambiguous because \"methanolate\" is often taken to mean \"methoxide anion\" (not correct here) rather than \"a molecule of neutral methanol included as solvent of crystallization with the primary compound\" as presumably intended by this other vendor. The level of solvent or water, if any, in our bosutinib product is found on the Certificate of Analysis for each lot. The presence of solvent or water of crystallization affect the nominal molecular weight but not the biological properties of the bosutinib product.
• Sold for laboratory or manufacturing purposes only; not for human, medical, veterinary, food, or household use.
