GtoPdb Ligand ID: 11830

Synonyms: CM-4307 | CM4307 | Sorafenib-d3 | Zepsun®
Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: Donafenib (CM-4307) is a deuterated derivative of the approved multikinase inhibitor sorafenib. Like sorafenib, it is orally active. Deuteration improves the stability of drug molecules thus extending half-life and increasing systemic exposure. This means that the effective drug dose may be shifted downward, with an associated improvement in tolerability. The medical formulation is donafenib tosylate.

2D Structure

An image of the ligand's 2D structure. For small molecules with SMILES these are drawn using the NCI/CADD Chemical Identifier Resolver. Click on the image to access the chemical structure search tool with the ligand pre-loaded in the structure editor. For other types of ligands, e.g. longer nucleotides and peptides, a manually drawn representation of the molecule may be provided.

Physico-chemical Properties

Calculated molecular properties are available for small molecules and natural products (not peptides). Properties were generated using the Chemistry Development Kit (CDK) (Willighagen EL et al. Journal of Cheminformatics vol. 9:33. 2017, doi:10.1186/s13321-017-0220-4; https://cdk.github.io/). All properties were selected to enable the prediction of the Lipinski Rule-of-Five profile or ‘druglikeness’ for each ligand. For more info on each category see the help pages.

SMILES / InChI / InChIKey

SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) A specification for unambiguously describing the structure of chemical molecules using short ASCII strings. Canonical SMILES specify a unique representation of the 2D structure without chiral or isotopic specifications. Isomeric SMILES include chiral specification and isotopes.

Standard InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey InChI is a non-proprietary, standard, textual identifier for chemical substances designed to facilitate linking of information and database searching. An InChIKey is a simplified version of a full InChI, designed for easier web searching.

Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Donafenib (CM-4307) was progressed to clinical evaluations to determine its efficacy against advanced solid tumours. It exhibited superior overall survival results compared to sorafenib in a direct comparison study in patients with unresectable/metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma [3]. Donafenib was granted its first international approval in China (June 2021) [1]. This approval indicated donafenib as a first-line systemic therapy for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
