Preclinical pharmacokinetics, CYP phenotyping, and tissue distribution study of novel anti-breast cancer candidate S-011-1559.

ABSTRACT

S-011-1559 is a tyrosine-derived novel benzoxazine CDRI molecule targeted to the oestrogen-related receptor (ER-α/ß) modulator in breast cancer. To explore the pharmacokinetics of S-011-1559, a selective and sensitive bioanalytical method using LC-MS/MS was established and validated in different biological matrices of female rats.Blood-to-plasma ratio and plasma protein binding (PPB) of S-011-1559 were found to be <1 and >97% in both rats and humans, respectively. The human serum albumin (HSA) and alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) binding was found in the range of > 68 to 45% and >14% respectively. Half-life and intrinsic clearance by microsomal stability study were found to be 28.83 min and 0.05 mL/min/mg in rats, 78.35 min and 0.036 mL/min/mg in humans, respectively. The IC50 value of S-011-1559 against CYP isoforms was revealed to moderately inhibit CYP2D6 by a reversible non-competitive mechanism.Tissue distribution of S-011-1559 on single intravenous injection at 2 mg/kg was found in the order of C lungs > C mammary gland > C spleen > C heart > C kidney > C liver > C brain.The data from the present study provides crucial information about S-011-1559 for further development as a novel potential drug candidate in modulating ER-α/ß receptors of lung and breast neoplasia.
