General Information
Nilotinib Impurities and Nilotinib
Daicel Pharma provides high-quality Nilotinib impurities, including Nilotinib Regio isomer (Nilotinib impurity-9), NTB Amine Regio Isomer, 2- Methyl Isomer Impurity of Nilotinib, Nilotinib Impurity E CRS, Nilotinib Impurity F CRS, and so on. These impurities are essential for evaluating Nilotinib quality, stability, and safety. Furthermore, Daicel Pharma provides custom synthesis of Nilotinib impurities and ships them worldwide.
Nilotinib [CAS: 641571-10-0] is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that treats Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML).
Nilotinib: Use and Commercial Availability
Nilotinib treats Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) in patients who have failed or are resistant to other therapies. It is available commercially under the brand name Tasigna. Tasigna is approved to treat adults and children with newly diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Chronic Myelogenous Leukaemia (CML) in the chronic phase.
Nilotinib Structure and Mechanism of Action 
The chemical name of Nilotinib is 4-Methyl-N-[3-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3-[[4-(3-pyridinyl)-2-pyrimidinyl]amino]benzamide. Its chemical formula is C28H22F3N7O, and its molecular weight is approximately 529.5 g/mol.
Nilotinib inhibits Bcr-Abl kinase. It stabilizes and binds to the kinase domain of the Abl protein.
Nilotinib Impurities and Synthesis
Unwanted components or by-products that might be present in the Nilotinib drug are known as impurities. These impurities may develop due to the drug’s synthesis1, storage, or deterioration. Nilotinib’s purity, safety, and effectiveness must be controlled and monitored.
Daicel provides a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) of Nilotinib impurity standards like Nilotinib Regio isomer (Nilotinib impurity-9), NTB Amine Regio Isomer, 2- Methyl Isomer Impurity of Nilotinib, Nilotinib Impurity E CRS, Nilotinib Impurity F CRS, and so on. The CoA is offered from a cGMP-compliant analytical facility and includes comprehensive characterization data, such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, MASS, and HPLC purity2. If requested, we give additional characterization data, such as 13C-DEPT. Daicel Pharma can provide unknown Nilotinib impurities or degradation products. Each delivery comes with a complete characterization report.
