ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
GS-9219, a novel prodrug of the nucleotide analogue 9-(2-phosphonylmethoxyethyl)guanine (PMEG), was designed as a cytotoxic agent that preferentially targets lymphoid cells. Our objective was to characterize the antiproliferative activity, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of GS-9219. EXPERIMENTALDESIGN:
GS-9219 was selected through screening in proliferation assays and through pharmacokinetic screening. The activation pathway of GS-9219 was characterized in lymphocytes, and its cytotoxic activity was evaluated against a panel of hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cell types. To test whether the prodrug moieties present in GS-9219 confer an advantage over PMEG in vivo, the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics (lymph node germinal center depletion), and toxicity of equimolar doses of GS-9219 and PMEG were evaluated after i.v. administration to normal beagle dogs. Finally, proof of concept of the antitumor efficacy of GS-9219 was evaluated in five pet dogs with spontaneous, advanced-stage non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) following a single i.v. administration of GS-9219 as monotherapy.RESULTS:
In lymphocytes, GS-9219 is converted to its active metabolite, PMEG diphosphate, via enzymatic hydrolysis, deamination, and phosphorylation. GS-9219 has substantial antiproliferative activity against activated lymphocytes and hematopoietic tumor cell lines. In contrast, resting lymphocytes and solid tumor lines were less sensitive to GS-9219. GS-9219, but not PMEG, depleted the germinal centers in lymphoid tissues of normal beagle dogs at doses that were tolerated. In addition, GS-9219 displayed significant in vivo efficacy in five dogs with spontaneous NHL after a single administration, with either no or low-grade adverse events.CONCLUSION:
GS-9219 may have utility for the treatment of NHL.
