Zotizalkib (TPX-0131), a fourth-generation macrocyclic anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor, is designed to overcome resistance due to secondary ALK mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We here evaluated the pharmacokinetic roles of the ABCB1 (P-gp/MDR1) and ABCG2 (BCRP) efflux transporters, OATP1 influx transporters and the metabolizing enzymes CES1 and CYP3A in plasma and tissue disposition of zotizalkib after oral administration in relevant mouse models. Zotizalkib was efficiently transported by hABCB1 in vitro.

Monitoring estrogen levels, especially estradiol (E2), is amongst others important for determining menopausal status and guidance of breast cancer treatment. We validated a serum E2 and estrone (E1) liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry assay (LC-MS/MS) suitable for quantitation in human subjects. In addition, we compared our method with an E2 immunoassay (IA) and established preliminary reference values.
