LCK is a novel therapeutic target in ~40% of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), and dasatinib and ponatinib can act as LCK inhibitors with therapeutic effects. We herein report a comprehensive preclinical pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluation of dasatinib and ponatinib in LCK-activated T-ALL. In 51 human T-ALL cases, these two drugs showed similar patterns of cytotoxic activity, with ponatinib being slightly more potent. Given orally in mice, ponatinib was associated with slower clearance with a longer Tmax and higher AUC0-24 h, although maximum pLCK inhibition was comparable between the two drugs. After establishing the exposure-to-response models, we simulated the steady-state pLCK inhibitory effects of each drug at currently approved dosages in humans: dasatinib at 140 mg and ponatinib at 45 mg once daily are both sufficient to achieve >50% pLCK inhibition for 13.0 and 13.9 h/day, respectively, comparable to pharmacodynamic profiles of these agents in BCR::ABL1 leukemias. Moreover, we developed a dasatinib-resistant T-ALL cell line model with LCK T316I mutation, in which ponatinib retained partial activity against LCK. In conclusion, we described the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of dasatinib and ponatinib as LCK inhibitors in T-ALL, providing critical data for the development of human trials of these agents.
