Vinorelbine Tartrate 

125317-39-7 

Vinorelbine (trade name Navelbine) is an anti-mitotic chemotherapy drug that is given as a treatment for some types of cancer, including breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer.

Vinorelbine i.v. is a semi-synthetic derivative of a vinca alkaloid launched in 1989 by Pierre Fabre for the treatment of non-metastatic breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In 2011, a complete response letter was assigned by the FDA for an NDA filed by Adventrx Pharmaceuticals seeking approval for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pierre Fabre and licensee GlaxoSmithKline had been evaluating the potential of the drug for the treatment of breast cancer, prostate cancer and NSCLC with an oral formulation, but no recent developments have been reported. The evaluation of an injectable emulsion formulation developed by Adventrx Pharmaceuticals is in phase I clinical development for the potential treatment of these indications. Several trials are ongoing to evaluate vinorelbine in combination with other chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. The University of California, Davis is evaluating vinorelbine in combination with lapatinib for the treatment of solid tumors.

Clinicians sometimes use the abbreviation “NVB” for vinorelbine, although (like many medical abbreviations) it is not a unique identifier.

The antitumor activity is due to inhibition of mitosis through interaction with tubulin.[2] Vinorelbine is the first 5´NOR semi-synthetic vinca alkaloid. It is obtained by semi-synthesis from alkaloids extracted from the rosy periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus. It is marketed in India by Abbott Healthcare under the brand name Navelbine.

History

Vinorelbine was invented by the pharmacist Pierre Potier and his team from the CNRS in France in the 1980s and was licensed to the oncology department of the Pierre Fabre Group. The drug was approved in France in 1989 under the brand name Navelbine for the treatment of non-small celllung cancer. It gained approval to treat metastatic breast cancer in 1991. Vinorelbine received approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December 1994 sponsored by Burroughs Wellcome Company. Pierre Fabre Group now markets Navelbine in the U.S., where the drug went generic in February 2003.

Vinorelbine interferes with microtubule assembly, particularly that of mitotic microtubules. Like other vinca alkaloids, vinorelbine may also interfere with the metabolism of amino acid, cyclic AMP, and glutathione, the activity of calmodulin-dependent Ca+2 transport ATPase, cellular respiration, and the biosynthesis of lipids and nucleic acid.

Originally developed at Pierre Fabre, vinorelbine i.v. was first licensed to GlaxoSmithKline in the U.S., Canada and Europe and to Kyowa Hakko in Japan. In July 2005, Pierre Fabre licensed the U.S. and Canadian rights to an oral formulation of vinorelbine to Novacea (acquired by Transcept Pharmaceuticals in 2009), while Pierre Fabre will continue to develop and commercialize this formulation in Europe and other countries. In October 2005, SD Pharmaceuticals granted Adventrx an exclusive license to certain rights to the emulsion formulation of the drug. In 2009, the company filed a regulatory application seeking approval for an injectable emulsion for the treatment of patients with stage III or IV NSCLC. Vinorelbine i.v. is currently registered in over 80 countries worldwide. In 2010, this application was withdrawn upon receipt of a refuse to file (FTF) decision from the FDA. The product is available for outlicensing.

In most European countries, vinorelbine is approved to treat non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. In the United States it is approved only for non-small cell lung cancer.

NAVELBINE (vinorelbine tartrate) Injection is for intravenous administration. Each vial contains vinorelbine tartrate equivalent to 10 mg (1-mL vial) or 50 mg (5-mL vial) vinorelbine in Water for Injection. No preservatives or other additives are present. The aqueous solution is sterile and nonpyrogenic. Vinorelbine tartrate is a semi-synthetic vinca alkaloid with antitumor activity. The chemical name is 3′,4′-didehydro-4′-deoxy-C’-norvincaleukoblastine [R-(R*,R*)-2, 3-dihydroxybutanedioate (1:2)(salt)]. Vinorelbine tartrate has the following structure:

NAVELBINE®<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
  (vinorelbine tartrate) Structural Formula Illustration

vinorelbine tartrate is a white to yellow or light brown amorphous powder with the molecular formula C45H54N4O8•2C4H6O6 and molecular weight of 1079.12. The aqueous solubility is > 1,000 mg/mL in distilled water. The pH of NAVELBINE (vinorelbine tartrate) Injection is approximately 3.5.

Clinical studies have demonstrated that oral vinorelbine has similar clinical results and tolerance when compared to intravenous delivery of vinorelbine. SD Pharmaceuticals developed a novel emulsion formulation of vinorelbine for injection providing a delivery vehicle that prevents direct contact with cells lining the vein as a means of reducing tissue damage at the injection site. This formulation was subject to a licensing agreement in October 2005, in which Adventrx obtained exclusive U.S. rights to the emulsion formulation. Both companies are now collaborating on the preclinical development of this formulation for the treatment of cancer. Recently, an IND for the clinical development this formulation been accepted by the FDA for the treatment of cancer. Vinorelbine has also been studied for the treatment of multiple myeloma. The Children’s National Medical Center is conducting phase II clinical trials for the treatment of children with progressive or recurrent low-grade gliomas.

Uses

As stated above, Vinorelbine is approved for the treatment of non small cell lung cancer and metastatic breast cancer. It is also active inrhabdomyosarcoma.[3]

Oral formulation

An oral formulation has been marketed and registered in most European countries for the same settings. It has similar efficacy as the intravenous formulation, avoids venous toxicities of an infusion and is easier to take.

Side effects

Vinorelbine has a number of side-effects that can limit its use:

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (a progressive, enduring and often irreversible tingling numbness, intense pain, and hypersensitivity to cold, beginning in the hands and feet and sometimes involving the arms and legs[4]), lowered resistance to infection, bruising or bleeding, anaemia,constipationdiarrheanausea, tiredness and a general feeling of weakness (asthenia), inflammation of the vein into which it was injected (phlebitis). Seldom severe hyponatremia is seen.

Less common effects are hair loss and allergic reaction.

vinorelbine (trade name: Navelbine (Navelbing)) is a novel semi-synthetic vinca alkaloids anticancer drugs, chemical name 3 ‘, 4’ – didehydro-4 ‘- deoxy _8 ‘- vinorelbine, developed by the French PieerFabre company and was listed first in France in 1989, it is mainly through inhibition of centromere tubulin polymerization, to stop cell division in mitotic metaphase, is a cell cycle-specific antineoplastic agents. A change in the structure, it has a strong and specific anti-mitotic properties, and exhibit antineoplastic vinca alkaloids than other low neurotoxicity, characteristics of strong anti-tumor activity.

vinorelbine complex chemical structure, synthesis is difficult, and the difficulty of separating large, making the synthesis of low yield and high cost.Published patent, if the application Patent CN101037446A, CN101284842A, CN1552715A, which are made of boron tetrafluoride shrink ring silver as reagents, but boron tetrafluoride is the price of silver more expensive chemical reagents, increased production costs.

During the development of the bis-indole alkaloid anticancer drug Navelbine® (vinorelbine), several chemical degradants of the drug were isolated and identified. These included 7′-nor-6′,9′-secovinorelbine (7′,8′-bisnor-6′,9′-secoanhydrovinblastine) and 4-deacetyl-8′-vinorelbine (4-deacetyl-8′-noranhydrovinblastine). The elucidation of the structure of 7′-nor-6′,9′-secovinorelbine is described; the assignment of the proton and carbon spectra of both compounds is contrasted to the shift assignments of Navelbine.
