| Belzutifan Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Belzutifan is an orally active, small molecule inhibitor of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-2alpha (HIF-2a), with potential antineoplastic activity. The HIF-2α protein was a key player in the growth of certain cancers. Initially considered to be undruggable, a binding pocket was eventually discovered in the HIF-2α molecule which allowed for compounds to bind and inhibit these proteins.
| Uses | Belzutifan is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease who need treatment for a type of kidney cancer called renal cell carcinoma (RCC), tumors in the brain and spinal cord called central nervous system hemangioblastomas, or a type of pancreatic cancer called pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, that do not need surgery right away. | Indications | Belzutifan is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease who require therapy for associated renal cell carcinoma (RCC), central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastomas, or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET), who do not require immediate surgery. | Mechanism of action | Belzutifan inhibits the complexation of HIF-2α with another transcription factor, HIF-1β, a necessary step in its activation - by preventing the formation of this complex, belzutifan can slow or stop the growth of VHL-associated tumors. Belzutifan received FDA approval for the treatment of select VHL-associated cancers on August 13, 2021. | Pharmacokinetics | Upon oral administration, belzutifan binds to and blocks the function of HIF-2alpha, thereby preventing HIF-2alpha heterodimerization and its subsequent binding to DNA. This results in decreased transcription and expression of HIF-2alpha downstream target genes, many of which regulate hypoxic signaling. This inhibits cell growth and survival of HIF-2alpha-expressing tumor cells. HIF-2alpha, the alpha subunit for the heterodimeric transcription factor HIF-2, is overexpressed in many cancers and promotes tumorigenesis. | Side effects | Side effects ofBelzutifan that was reported: allergic reactions(skin rash,itchingorhives; swelling of the face, lips, or tongue) blurred vision OR changes in vision high blood sugar (increased hunger, thirst or urination; unusually weak or tired, blurry vision) infection (fever, chills,cough,sore throat,pain;or trouble passing urine) low calcium levels(fast heartbeat; muscle cramps or;pain;;pain, tingling, or numbness in the hands or feet; seizures) low red blood cell counts (feeling faint; lightheaded, falls; unusually weak or tired) trouble breathing trouble passing urine or change in the amount of urine |
