Abstract
Ponatinib is a prescription medication used to treat a rare form of blood cancer called Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that is resistant to other treatments. It belongs to a class of drugs called tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which work by blocking abnormal proteins that promote the growth of cancer cells. In this chapter, the synthesis methods and physicochemical properties of ponatinib were reviewed, besides the characterization of the ponatinib structure using different techniques such as elemental analysis, IR, UV, (1H and 13C) NMR, MS, and XRD. Furthermore, the compendial method for analysis of ponatinib was not found, while the literature review of a non-compendial method for analysis of ponatinib, such as spectroscopic, chromatographic, and immunoassay methods, was covered. Moreover, pharmacology and biochemistry were surveyed in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies.
