Product Description & Technical Overview
Afatinib (CAS 439081-18-2) manufactured and supplied by Shaanxi Sunrise Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. is a highly potent, second-generation irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Unlike first-generation reversible inhibitors, Afatinib forms covalent bonds to permanently block ErbB receptor family signaling pathways, specifically targeting EGFR (ErbB1), HER2 (ErbB2), and ErbB4.
Our high-purity Afatinib raw powder is synthesized via optimized molecular pathways in state-of-the-art facilities. We strictly control the generation of isomeric impurities and structural analogs to ensure an exceptionally clean pharmaceutical ingredient. It is designed to satisfy the rigorous technical requirements of research laboratories, generic formulation developers, and international manufacturers producing finished oncological dosage forms.

Unique Advantages of Shaanxi Sunrise Afatinib API
Ultra-Low Genotoxic Impurities
In compliance with strict ICH M7 guidelines for oncological active substances, we employ advanced multi-stage purification protocols. Our process successfully controls single mutagenic/genotoxic process impurities below 0.1%, ensuring high-level safety for formulation R&D.
Advanced Solid-State Characterization
We guarantee high batch-to-batch consistency in crystalline morphology and particle size distribution. This superior physical state optimization simplifies downstream pharmaceutical processing, enhancing solubility and dissolution performance in oral solid formulations.
Complete Technical Dossier Support
As an experienced B2B raw material manufacturer, Shaanxi Sunrise provides comprehensive structural characterization data, including HPLC, 1H-NMR, Mass Spectrometry (MS), and complete stability testing studies to streamline your regulatory filing procedures.
Mechanism of Action & Targeted Pathways
Afatinib provides therapeutic efficacy through irreversible multi-receptor blockade, addressing resistance mechanisms common in oncological mutations:
Covalent Tyrosine Kinase Blockade: Afatinib irreversibly binds to the kinase domains of EGFR (ErbB1), HER2 (ErbB2), and ErbB4 via covalent linkage. This action halts downstream autophosphorylation and suppresses key survival pathways (MAPK and AKT).
Overcoming Resistance Mutants: Due to its irreversible binding mechanism, Afatinib continues to suppress tumor cell proliferation even in the presence of specific EGFR mutations that typically cause resistance to first-generation TKIs.
Strict Quality Assurance for Oncology: High purity (≥ 99.0%) ensures that the active pharmaceutical molecule displays optimal receptor affinity without off-target toxicity triggered by synthesis byproducts.
