- Background
Momelotinib is a Janus Kinase 1 (JAK1) and 2 (JAK2) inhibitor. It is a competitive inhibitor of JAK ATP binding.4 First approved by the FDA on September 15, 2023,7 momelotinib is used to treat myelofibrosis.6 Myelofibrosis (MF) is a group of myeloproliferative neoplasms characterized by abnormal proliferative hematopoietic stem cells, leading to the release of cytokines and growth factors. MF includes primary MF (PMF), post-polycythemia vera (PV) MF, and post-essential thrombocythemia (ET) MF. Clinical manifestations of MF include anemia and thrombocytosis. Momelotinib works to block the JAK-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signalling pathway, which is aberrant in MF.3,4,5

Momelotinib inhibits Janus Kinase 1 and 2 (JAK1/JAK2) with an IC50 of 11 and 18 nM, respectively. It also inhibits JAK3 (IC50 = 155 nM) and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) (IC50 = 17 nM) with less selectivity.3 Momelotinib inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation in whole blood from patients with myelofibrosis (MF). Maximal inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation occurred two hours after momelotinib dosing, which persisted for at least six hours. Iron availability and erythropoiesis were assessed by analysis of circulating hepcidin concentrations: an acute and sustained reduction of circulating hepcidin was observed for the duration of the 24-week administration of momelotinib to patients with MF.6
- Mechanism of action
One of the molecular pathways that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of MF is constitutively activated and dysregulated Janus protein tyrosine kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signalling, which is believed to drive the abnormal production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in bone marrow stroma. An aberrant JAK-STAT signalling pathway in MF may or may not be caused by JAK mutations such as JAK2V617F.3,4,5
Momelotinib is an adenosine triphosphate-competitive inhibitor of wild-type JAK1 and JAK2 as well as mutant JAK2V617F, which contribute to the signalling of several cytokines and growth factors that are important for hematopoiesis and immune function. Momelotinib and its major human circulating metabolite, M21, have higher inhibitory activity for JAK2 compared to other members of the JAK family - JAK3 and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2). Momelotinib and M21 additionally inhibit activin A receptor type 1 (ACVR1), also known as activin receptor-like kinase 2 (ALK2), which produces subsequent inhibition of liver hepcidin expression and increased iron availability, resulting in increased red blood cell production. Dysregulated JAK signalling may also contribute to inflammation and hyperactivation of ACVR1.6 Suppression of hepcidin by momelotinib increases circulating iron and hemoglobin, and stimulates erythropoiesis in the bone marrow.5

Momelotinib is rapidly absorbed following oral administration with a bioavailability of 97%.3 The mean (%CV) steady-state Cmax is 479 ng/mL (61%), and the mean (%CV) AUC is 3,288 ng x h/mL (60%) at the maximum recommended dosage. Momelotinib exposure (i.e., Cmax and AUC) increases dose proportionally from 100 mg to 300 mg (0.5 to 1.5 times the maximum recommended dosage), but less than dose-proportional at doses from 400 mg to 800 mg (two to four times the maximum recommended dosage). There is no clinically significant accumulation. The Tmax at steady state is two hours (Q1: 1 hour; Q3: 3 hours) post-dose.6
No clinically significant differences in momelotinib pharmacokinetics were observed following administration of either a high-fat meal (800 kcal; 50% fat) or low-fat meal (400 kcal; 20% fat) in healthy subjects.6
- Volume of distribution
The mean (%CV) apparent volume of distribution at steady-state is 984 L (118%).6
- Protein binding
Momelotinib is 91% bound to plasma proteins in healthy volunteers.6
- Metabolism
Momelotinib is metabolized by multiple cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, including CYP3A4 (36%), CYP2C8 (19%), CYP2C9 (17%), CYP2C19 (19%), and CYP1A2 (9%). M21 is initially formed via oxidation of the morpholine ring by the same CYP enzymes, followed by metabolism via aldehyde oxidase.2,6 M21 is a major metabolite in humans that retains approximately 40% of the pharmacological activity of the parent. The mean ratio of M21 to momelotinib for AUC ranged from 1.4 to 2.1.6 Momelotinib can undergo amide hydrolysis, N-dealkylation, nitrile hydrolysis, nitrile oxidation, and glucuronidation.1

- Tyrosine kinase of the non-receptor type, involved in the IFN-alpha/beta/gamma signal pathway (PubMed:16239216, PubMed:28111307, PubMed:32750333, PubMed:7615558, PubMed:8232552). Kinase partner for the interleukin (IL)-2 receptor (PubMed:11909529) as well as interleukin (IL)-10 receptor (PubMed:12133952). Kinase partner for the type I interferon receptor IFNAR2 (PubMed:16239216, PubMed:28111307, PubMed:32750333, PubMed:7615558, PubMed:8232552). In response to interferon-binding to IFNAR1-IFNAR2 heterodimer, phosphorylates and activates its binding partner IFNAR2, creating docking sites for STAT proteins (PubMed:7759950). Directly phosphorylates STAT proteins but also activates STAT signaling through the transactivation of other JAK kinases associated with signaling receptors (PubMed:16239216, PubMed:32750333, PubMed:8232552)

- General Function
- Non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in various processes such as cell growth, development, differentiation or histone modifications. Mediates essential signaling events in both innate and adaptive immunity. In the cytoplasm, plays a pivotal role in signal transduction via its association with type I receptors such as growth hormone (GHR), prolactin (PRLR), leptin (LEPR), erythropoietin (EPOR), thrombopoietin (THPO); or type II receptors including IFN-alpha, IFN-beta, IFN-gamma and multiple interleukins (PubMed:7615558, PubMed:9657743, PubMed:15690087). Following ligand-binding to cell surface receptors, phosphorylates specific tyrosine residues on the cytoplasmic tails of the receptor, creating docking sites for STATs proteins (PubMed:9618263, PubMed:15690087). Subsequently, phosphorylates the STATs proteins once they are recruited to the receptor. Phosphorylated STATs then form homodimer or heterodimers and translocate to the nucleus to activate gene transcription. For example, cell stimulation with erythropoietin (EPO) during erythropoiesis leads to JAK2 autophosphorylation, activation, and its association with erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) that becomes phosphorylated in its cytoplasmic domain (PubMed:9657743). Then, STAT5 (STAT5A or STAT5B) is recruited, phosphorylated and activated by JAK2. Once activated, dimerized STAT5 translocates into the nucleus and promotes the transcription of several essential genes involved in the modulation of erythropoiesis. Part of a signaling cascade that is activated by increased cellular retinol and that leads to the activation of STAT5 (STAT5A or STAT5B) (PubMed:21368206). In addition, JAK2 mediates angiotensin-2-induced ARHGEF1 phosphorylation (PubMed:20098430). Plays a role in cell cycle by phosphorylating CDKN1B (PubMed:21423214). Cooperates with TEC through reciprocal phosphorylation to mediate cytokine-driven activation of FOS transcription. In the nucleus, plays a key role in chromatin by specifically mediating phosphorylation of 'Tyr-41' of histone H3 (H3Y41ph), a specific tag that promotes exclusion of CBX5 (HP1 alpha) from chromatin (PubMed:19783980)

- Non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in various processes such as cell growth, development, or differentiation. Mediates essential signaling events in both innate and adaptive immunity and plays a crucial role in hematopoiesis during T-cells development. In the cytoplasm, plays a pivotal role in signal transduction via its association with type I receptors sharing the common subunit gamma such as IL2R, IL4R, IL7R, IL9R, IL15R and IL21R. Following ligand binding to cell surface receptors, phosphorylates specific tyrosine residues on the cytoplasmic tails of the receptor, creating docking sites for STATs proteins. Subsequently, phosphorylates the STATs proteins once they are recruited to the receptor. Phosphorylated STATs then form homodimer or heterodimers and translocate to the nucleus to activate gene transcription. For example, upon IL2R activation by IL2, JAK1 and JAK3 molecules bind to IL2R beta (IL2RB) and gamma chain (IL2RG) subunits inducing the tyrosine phosphorylation of both receptor subunits on their cytoplasmic domain. Then, STAT5A and STAT5B are recruited, phosphorylated and activated by JAK1 and JAK3. Once activated, dimerized STAT5 translocates to the nucleus and promotes the transcription of specific target genes in a cytokine-specific fashion

- Tyrosine kinase of the non-receptor type involved in numerous cytokines and interferons signaling, which regulates cell growth, development, cell migration, innate and adaptive immunity (PubMed:10542297, PubMed:10995743, PubMed:7657660, PubMed:7813427, PubMed:8232552). Plays both structural and catalytic roles in numerous interleukins and interferons (IFN-alpha/beta) signaling (PubMed:10542297). Associates with heterodimeric cytokine receptor complexes and activates STAT family members including STAT1, STAT3, STAT4 or STAT6 (PubMed:10542297, PubMed:7638186). The heterodimeric cytokine receptor complexes are composed of (1) a TYK2-associated receptor chain (IFNAR1, IL12RB1, IL10RB or IL13RA1), and (2) a second receptor chain associated either with JAK1 or JAK2 (PubMed:10542297, PubMed:25762719, PubMed:7526154, PubMed:7813427). In response to cytokine-binding to receptors, phosphorylates and activates receptors (IFNAR1, IL12RB1, IL10RB or IL13RA1), creating docking sites for STAT members (PubMed:7526154, PubMed:7657660). In turn, recruited STATs are phosphorylated by TYK2 (or JAK1/JAK2 on the second receptor chain), form homo- and heterodimers, translocate to the nucleus, and regulate cytokine/growth factor responsive genes (PubMed:10542297, PubMed:25762719, PubMed:7657660). Negatively regulates STAT3 activity by promototing phosphorylation at a specific tyrosine that differs from the site used for signaling (PubMed:29162862)

- Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) type I receptor that is involved in a wide variety of biological processes, including bone, heart, cartilage, nervous, and reproductive system development and regulation (PubMed:20628059, PubMed:22977237). As a type I receptor, forms heterotetrameric receptor complexes with the type II receptors AMHR2, ACVR2A or ACVR2B (PubMed:17911401). Upon binding of ligands such as BMP7 or GDF2/BMP9 to the heteromeric complexes, type II receptors transphosphorylate ACVR1 intracellular domain (PubMed:25354296). In turn, ACVR1 kinase domain is activated and subsequently phosphorylates SMAD1/5/8 proteins that transduce the signal (PubMed:9748228). In addition to its role in mediating BMP pathway-specific signaling, suppresses TGFbeta/activin pathway signaling by interfering with the binding of activin to its type II receptor (PubMed:17911401). Besides canonical SMAD signaling, can activate non-canonical pathways such as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases/MAPKs (By similarity). May promote the expression of HAMP, potentially via its interaction with BMP6 (By similarity)

Involved in the clearance of bile acids and organic anions from the liver (PubMed:22232210). Can take up bilirubin glucuronides from plasma into the liver, contributing to the detoxification-enhancing liver-blood shuttling loop (PubMed:22232210). Transports coproporphyrin I and III, by-products of heme synthesis, and may be involved in their hepatic disposition (PubMed:26383540). May contribute to regulate the transport of organic compounds in testes across the blood-testis-barrier (Probable). Can transport HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (also known as statins) such as pitavastatin, a clinically important class of hypolipidemic drugs (PubMed:15159445). May play an important role in plasma and tissue distribution of the structurally diverse chemotherapeutic drugs methotrexate and paclitaxel (PubMed:23243220). May also transport antihypertension agents, such as the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor prodrug enalapril, and the highly selective angiotensin II AT1-receptor antagonist valsartan, in the liver (PubMed:16624871, PubMed:16627748)
