BOSUTINIB vs LAPATINIB DITOSYLATE
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Bosutinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits the BCR-ABL kinase, including many imatinib-resistant mutations, and Src family kinases.
Reversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits ErbB-1 (EGFR) and ErbB-2 (HER2) by binding to the ATP-binding pocket, preventing receptor autophosphorylation and downstream signaling.
400 mg orally once daily with food.
Lapatinib ditosylate 1250 mg orally once daily on days 1-21 continuously, plus capecitabine 2000 mg/m2 orally once daily in 2 divided doses on days 1-14 of a 21-day cycle. Alternatively, 1500 mg orally once daily with letrozole 2.5 mg orally once daily continuously.

Terminal elimination half-life approximately 33 hours (range 22-60 hr) after oral administration, supporting once-daily dosing.
Terminal elimination half-life is 14–24 hours; after repeated dosing, effective half-life is ~24 hours clinically.
Primarily fecal (approx. 68% as unchanged drug and metabolites) and renal (approx. 25%, with <0.2% as unchanged drug in urine).
Fecal (approximately 87% as metabolites, with 3% as parent drug); renal (approximately 3% as metabolites).
