Vandetanib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets multiple receptors, including VEGFR, EGFR, and RET. It is used primarily in the treatment of symptomatic or progressive medullary thyroid cancer in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease. Vandetanib is currently approved by regulatory agencies such as the FDA and EMA for this indication.

Pharmacokinetics

Population pharmacokinetics in adult cancer patients, median age ~50-60 years, both sexes, mostly white ethnicity, with advanced solid tumors or medullary thyroid cancer.
