Pozio 8

Poziotinib is a quinazoline-based, orally available, irreversible pan-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or HER) inhibitor that has anticancer potential. EGFR (HER1 or ErbB1), HER2, and HER4 are all inhibited by poziotinib when taken orally, which stops tumor cells from proliferating if these receptors are overexpressed or altered. EGFRs, which are cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases that are increased or changed in several cancer cell types, are essential for cell proliferation and survival. Poziotinib has been tested in trials for Breast Cancer, Metastatic Breast Cancer, Increased Drug Resistance, Adenocarcinoma of the Lung Stage IV, and Adenocarcinoma of the Lung Stage IIIB, among other conditions.

The standard dosage regimen is 16 mg once a day, with meals or on an empty stomach, continuously.
