General information
Class/mechanism: Tyrosine kinase inhibitor with multiple targets, including Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, the constitutively active tyrosine kinase resulting from the Philadelphia chromosome abnormality in CML, as well as VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, the SRC kinases, KIT, EPH receptors, RET, TIE2, and FLT3. Ponatinib is active against the Bcr-Abl T315I mutation.[1][2][3][4]
Route: PO
Extravasation: n/a
