Chapter 5 prodrugs Shanghai Jiao Tong University 前药 5.1 The term prodrug Prodrug is a pharmacologically inactive compound that is converted into an active drug by a metabolic biotransformation. A prodrug also can be activated by a nonenzymatic process such as hydrolysis, but in this case the compounds generally are unstable and may cause stability problems. The prodrug to drug conversion can occur before absorption, during absorption, after absorption, or at a specific site in the body. In the ideal case a prodrug is converted to the drug as soon as the desired goal. Prodrugs and soft drugs are opposite. Whereas prodrugs are inactive compounds that require a metabolic conversion to the active form, a soft drug is active and uses metabolism as a means of promoting excretion. Shanghai Jiao Tong University 5.2 Purpose of prodrug design Prodrug design is a lead modification approach that is used to correct a flaw in a drug candidate. Aqueous Solubility Absorption and Distribution Site Specificity Instability Prolonged Release Toxicity Poor Patient Acceptability(unpleasant taste or odor, gastric irritation) Formulation Problems Shanghai Jiao Tong University 5.3 Types of Prodrugs 1)Carrier-linked prodrug(载体连接型前药) A compound that contains an active drug linked to a carrier group that can be removed enzymatically, such as an ester, amide which is hydrolyzed to an active carboxylic acid, alcohol or amine. Carrier group must be labile enough to released active drug in vivo.The carrier group must be nontoxic and biologically inactive. bipartate prodrug(二元前药) comprised of one carrier attached to the drug. modification D active drug + C DC carrier prodrug metabolism D active drug + C carrier Shanghai Jiao Tong University tripartate prodrug(三元前药): a carrier is connected to drug with a linker D + active drug Ln + linker modification C metabolism D-Ln-C prodrug carrier D + active drug L linker D- Ln + inactive metabolism C carrier D - L + L1 + L2 + L3 ...... mutual prodrug(协同前药) consists of two, usually synergistic, drugs attached to each other directly or by a linker (also be called twin drug ,孪药).

Di metabolism inactive Da active drug Shanghai Jiao Tong University 5.4 Carrier-Linked Prodrugs An ideal drug carrier ①protect the drug until it is at the site of action; ②localizethe drug at the site of action; ③allow for release of the drug chemically or enzymatically; ④minimize host toxicity; ⑤be biodegradable, biochemically inert, and nonimmunogenic; ⑥be easily prepared inexpensively; ⑦be chemically and biochemically stable in its dosage form.

GABA progabide(普罗加比) Increasing the brain concentration of the inhibitory neurotransmitter γ -aminobutyric acid (GABA) results in anticonvulsant activity. However, GABA is too polar to cross the blood–brain barrier, so it is not an effective anticonvulsant drug. OH N F O NH2 H2N COOH GABA Progabide Cl progabide is an effective lipophilic analog of GABA that crosses the blood– brain barrier, releases GABA inside the brain, and shows anticonvulsant activity.

Shanghai Jiao Tong University ④ Prodrugs for Stability propanolol (R = R’ = H)(普奈洛尔) NHCH(CH 3)2 O-glucuronide ( R=H,OR’=glucuronide), metabolite O OR' p-hydroxypropranolol( R =OH,R’=H), metabolite O-glucuronide(R=OH,OR’=glucuronide) R The hemisuccinate ester of propranolol ( R =H,R’=COCH2CH2COOH) Some prodrugs protect the drug from the first-pass effect .Propranolol is a widely used antihypertensive drug, but because of first-pass elimination, an oral dose has a much lower bioavailability than does intravenous injection. The major metabolites are propranolol O-glucuronide. The hemisuccinate ester of propranolol was prepared to block glucuronide formation; following oral administration of propranolol hemisuccinate, the plasma levels of propranolol were eight times greater than when propranolol was used. Shanghai Jiao Tong University ⑤ Prodrugs for Slow and Prolonged Release Haloperidol is a potent, orally active central nervous system depressant, sedative, and tranquilizer. However, peak plasma levels are observed between 2 and 6 h after administration. The ester prodrug haloperidol decanoate is injected intramuscularly as a solution in sesame oil, and its antipsychotic activity lasts for about 1 month. O I OR N Cl haloperidol (R=H)(氟哌啶醇) haloperidol decanoate (R = CO(CH2)8CH3) Shanghai Jiao Tong University ⑥Prodrugs to Minimize Toxicity Side effects associated with the use of aspirin are gastric irritation and ulcerogenicity associated with aspirin use may result from an accumulation of the acid in the gastric mucosal cells. Esterification of aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents greatly suppresses gastric ulcerogenic activity. Esters of N,N-disubstituted 2-hydroxyacetamides were found to be chemically highly stable, but were hydrolyzed very rapidly by pseudocholinesterase(伪胆碱 酯酶) in plasma O OR O CH3 O aspirin (R = H) N,N-disubstituted 2-hydroxyacetamides ( R=CH2CONR1R2) Shanghai Jiao Tong University ⑦Prodrugs to Encourage Patient Acceptance A fundamental tenet in medicine is that in order for a drug to be effective, the patient has to take it! Painful injections and unpleasant taste or odor are the most common reasons for the lack of patient acceptance of a drug. CH 3 H N H O HO H N Cl O OH SCH 3 OR clindamycin (R = H)(克林霉素) :causes pain on injection, a bitter taste orally clindamycin phosphate (R = PO3H2): well tolerated on injection clindamycin palmitate (R = CO(CH2)14CH3): no bitter taste orally Shanghai Jiao Tong University ⑧Prodrugs to Eliminate Formulation Problems Formaldehyde (CH2O) is a flammable, colorless gas with a pungent odor that is used as a disinfectant. Solutions of high concentrations of formaldehyde are toxic. Consequently, it cannot be used directly in medicine. However, the reaction of formaldehyde with ammonia produces a stable adamantane-like solid compound, methenamine(孟德立胺, trade name is urotropine乌洛托品 ). In acidic pH media, methenamine hydrolyzes to formaldehyde and ammonium ions. Because the pH of urine in the bladder is mildly acidic, methenamine is used as a urinary tract antiseptic.To prevent hydrolysis of this prodrug in the acidic environment of the stomach, the tablets are enteric coated. N N N Methenamine N Shanghai Jiao Tong University 2) Tripartate Prodrugs Bipartate prodrugs may be ineffective because the prodrug linkage is too labile (e.g., certain esters) or too stable (because of steric hindrance to hydrolysis). In a tripartate prodrug the carrier is not connected directly to the drug, but rather to a linker that is attached to the drug. This allows for different kinds of functional groups to be incorporated for varying stabilities, and it also displaces the drug farther from the hydrolysis site, which decreases the steric interference by the carrier. Shanghai Jiao Tong University The double ester The drug-linker connection, however, must be designed so that it cleaves spontaneously (i.e., is self immolative 自脱落) after the carrier has been detached. One approach to accomplish this has been termed the double prodrug or, in the case where X = COO, the double ester concept, generalized in Scheme . (X = COO, O, NH).

Because only 40% of the drug is absorbed, 2.5 times more drug must be administered orally than by injection. Alipid-soluble prodrug of ampicillinwould be a useful approachto increase absorption of this drug. However, although various simple alkyl and aryl esters of the thiazolidine carboxyl group are too stable in humans to be therapeutically useful. A solution to the problem was the construction of a“double ester,” an acyloxymethyl ester.

Once inside the brain, the lipophilic carrier is converted enzymatically into a highly hydrophilic species pyridinium ion prevents the drug from escaping out of the brain because it becomes charged. Any oxidation occurring outside of the brain produces a hydrophilic species that can be rapidly eliminated from the body . Shanghai Jiao Tong University A tripartate example of this approach is the brain delivery of β-lactam antibiotics for the possible treatment of bacterial meningitis(脑膜炎).

Therefore, they are not as effective in the treatment of brain infections as elsewhere. Shanghai Jiao Tong University 3) Mutual Prodrugs When it is necessary for two synergistic drugs to be at the same site at the same time, a mutual prodrug approach should be considered. A mutual prodrug is a bipartate or tripartate prodrug in which the carrier is a synergistic drug with the drug to which it is linked. ①Sultamicillin(舒他西林) O O NH HO OH O S S N NH 2 N O O COOH COOH 克拉维酸 O Ph N potassium clavulanate amoxicillin NH NH2 O S O S N O O O O O O O COOR penicillanic acid sulf one(R=H) 青霉烷砜酸 β-lactamase inhibitor Sultamicillin(舒他西林) N O Shanghai Jiao Tong University ②Aspirin + Paracetamol COO Benorilate NHCOCH3 OCOCH 3 ③Ranitidine Bismuth Citrate,RBC O O O C O O CHNO2 (H 3C)2NH 2C O S N H NHCH 3 HO Bi +3 O H2- receptor antagonists gastric mucosa protective agent Helicobacter pylori (HP) inhibitor Shanghai Jiao Tong University 5.5 Bio precursor Prodrugs Carrier-linked prodrugs rely largely on hydrolysis reactions for their effectiveness. bioprecursor prodrugs mostly utilize either oxidative or reductive activation reactions. The examples given below are arranged according to the type of metabolic activation reaction involved.

Therefore, the pyridine ring is not protonated at physiological pH, so it is lipid permeable and able to diffuse into the parietal cell. However, the pH in the parietal cell is below 1, so omeprazole becomes protonated inside the c parietal ell, where it becomes trapped, then undergoes a protoninitiated transformation to active form, which reacts covalently with a cysteine residue of H+,K+-ATPase Shanghai Jiao Tong University 2) Elimination Activation The rheumatoid arthritis drug leflunomide (来氟米特) is an immunomodulatory agent shown to inhibit pyrimidine biosynthesis in human T lymphocytes by blocking the enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase(二氢乳清酸脱氢酶). Whereas leflunomide shows no inhibitory effect on dihydroorotate dehydrogenase at 1μM concentration, its metabolite, is a potent inhibitor (Ki 179nM).Isoxazoles are known to undergo facile elimination to nitriles.

However, the clinical use of vidarabine is limited because of its rapid deamination by adenosine deaminase and its poor aqueous solubility. 9-(β -D-Arabinofuranosyl)-6-azidopurine, the 6-azido analog of vidarabine, however, is not a substrate for adenosine deaminase, and it is considerably more stable in vivo. the half-life for the prodrug is 7-14 times higher than for vidarabine administered directly.

However, there is an active transport system for L-amino acids; consequently, L-dopa (levodopa) is transported into the brain where it is decarboxylated by aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (芳香族L-氨基酸脱羧酶)(also called dopa decarboxylase ) to dopamine .
