Long-Acting Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase Inhibitor Prodrug for Humans.
Bioconjugate Chemistry 2024 April 10
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) have been approved for once or twice daily oral use in the treatment of cancers with BRCA defects. However, for some patients, oral administration of PARPi may be impractical or intolerable, and a long-acting injectable formulation is desirable. We recently developed a long-acting PEGylated PARPi prodrug, PEG∼talazoparib (TLZ), which suppressed the growth of PARPi-sensitive tumors in mice for very long periods. However, the release rate of TLZ from the conjugate was too fast to be optimal in humans. We prepared several new PEG∼TLZ prodrugs having longer half-lives of drug release and accurately measured their pharmacokinetics in the rat. Using the rates of release of TLZ from these prodrugs and the known pharmacokinetics of free TLZ in humans, we simulated the pharmacokinetics of the macromolecular prodrugs and released TLZ in humans. From several possibilities, we chose two conjugates that could be administered intravenously every 2 weeks and maintain TLZ within its known therapeutic window. We describe situations where the PEG∼TLZ conjugates would find utility in humans and suggest how the intravenously administered long-acting prodrugs could in fact be more effective than daily oral administration of free TLZ.
