Inherently limited by poor bioavailability, antiviral agent tenofovir (TFV) is administered to people living with HIV in prodrug form. However, current prodrugs are prematurely metabolized, compromising access to HIV-infected cells and inducing toxicity. Inspired by lipid conjugate TFV exalidex (TXL), we recently disclosed TXL analogs with potent activity and robust hepatic stability in vitro, as well as attractive oral PK profiles in vivo. In parallel, we discovered the equipotent and equally stable hexadecylthiopropyl (HTP) derivative of TXL (2a). Reported herein are the synthetic and bioanalytic efforts that led to potent, safe, and hepatically stable HTP derivatives. While HTP analog 16hshowed the most attractive PK profile in mice (55% F) discrepancies in translating in vitro cell-based results to in vivo PK data, for certain prodrugs, indicated that further in vitro/in vivo optimization is required for continued advancement of this program. |
