Novel triclabendazole prodrug: A highly water soluble alternative for the treatment of fasciolosis.
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 2017 Februrary 2
In this work we present the synthesis, aqueous solubility and stability, hydrolysis by alkaline phosphatase, and in vivo fasciolicidal activity in sheep of a highly water soluble phosphate salt prodrug of triclabendazole (MFR-5). The aqueous solubility of MFR-5 at pH 7 was 88,000-fold that of triclabendazole. MFR-5 showed excellent aqueous stability (>95% after 26h) at pH 7, making it ideal for developing pharmaceutical compositions in the form of solutions that can easily be hydrolyzed by the enzyme alkaline phosphatase (t=13.6s) to liberate the precursor compound. An aqueous solution of MFR-5 administered intramuscularly to sheep at concentrations of 4, 6 and 8mg/kg presented a fasciolicidal efficiency of 96.5%, 98.4% and 99.2%, respectively. In the in vivo experiments, MFR-5 reduced 100% the excretion of eggs in all of the above concentrations.
