Characterization of Stable and Reactive Metabolites of the Anticancer Drug, Ensartinib, in Human Liver Microsomes Using LC-MS/MS: An in silico and Practical Bioactivation Approach.

These findings lay the foundations for additional work on ESB toxicity. Substituents to the bioactive centers (piperazine ring), either for blocking or isosteric replacement, would likely block or interrupt hydroxylation reaction that will end the bioactivation sequence.
