[PMID: 38409112 PMCID: PMC10949161 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.123.002051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Panobinostat is a potent pan-HDAC inhibitor that has been tested in multiple studies for the treatment of brain tumors. There have been contrasting views surrounding its efficacy for the treatment of tumors in the CNS following systemic administration when examined in different models or species. We conducted experiments using three different mouse strains or genotypes to have a more comprehensive understanding of the systemic as well as the CNS distributional kinetics of panobinostat. Our study found that panobinostat experienced rapid degradation in vitro in FVB mouse matrices and a faster degradation rate was observed at 37{degree sign}C compared with room temperature and 4{degree sign}C, suggesting that the in vitro instability of panobinostat was due to enzymatic metabolism. Panobinostat also showed inter-strain and inter-species differences in the in vitro plasma stability; and was stable in human plasma. The objective of this study was to examine the in vitro metabolic stability of panobinostat in different matrices and assess the influence of that metabolic stability on the in vivo pharmacokinetics and CNS delivery of panobinostat. Importantly, the plasma stability in various mouse strains was not reflected in the in vivo systemic pharmacokinetic behavior of panobinostat. Several hypotheses arise from this finding, including: the binding of panobinostat to red blood cells, the existence of competing endogenous compounds to enzyme(s), the distribution into tissues with a lower level of enzymatic activity or the metabolism occurring in the plasma is a small fraction of the total metabolism in vivo Significance Statement Panobinostat showed different in vitro degradation in plasma from different mouse strains and genotypes. However, despite the differences surrounding in vitro plasma stability, panobinostat showed similar in vivo pharmacokinetic behavior in different mouse models. This suggests that the inter-strain difference in enzymatic activity did not affect the in vivo pharmacokinetic behavior of panobinostat and its CNS distribution in mice. This lack of translation between in vitro metabolism assays and in vivo disposition can confound drug development.

Transformation of a Metal Chelate into a "Catch and Anchor" Inhibitor of Botulinum A Protease. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24054303. [PMID: 36901734 PMCID: PMC10001950 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24054303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Targeting the botulinum neurotoxin light chain (LC) metalloprotease using small-molecule metal chelate inhibitors is a promising approach to counter the effects of the lethal toxin. However, to overcome the pitfalls associated with simple reversible metal chelate inhibitors, it is crucial to investigate alternative scaffolds/strategies. In conjunction with Atomwise Inc., in silico and in vitro screenings were conducted, yielding a number of leads, including a novel 9-hydroxy-4H-pyrido [1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one (PPO) scaffold. From this structure, an additional series of 43 derivatives were synthesized and tested, resulting in a lead candidate with a Ki of 150 nM in a BoNT/A LC enzyme assay and 17 µM in a motor neuron cell-based assay. These data combined with structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis and docking led to a bifunctional design strategy, which we termed "catch and anchor" for the covalent inhibition of BoNT/A LC. Kinetic evaluation was conducted on structures prepared from this catch and anchor campaign, providing kinact/Ki values, and rationale for inhibition seen. Covalent modification was validated through additional assays, including an FRET endpoint assay, mass spectrometry, and exhaustive enzyme dialysis. The data presented support the PPO scaffold as a novel candidate for targeted covalent inhibition of BoNT/A LC.

Abstract
While histone deacetylase inhibitors, such as vorinostat, demonstrate a significant effect against hematological cancers, their application for solid tumor treatment is limited. However, there is strong evidence that combinatorial administration of vorinostat and genotoxic agents (e.g., doxorubicin) enhances the antitumoral action of both drugs against tumors. We developed a high-performance liquid chromatography method for the simultaneous determination of doxorubicin and vorinostat in polymeric nanoparticles designed to provide the parenteral administration of both drugs and increase their safety profile. We performed separation on Nucleodur C-18 Gravity column with a mixture of 10 mM potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer pH 3.9:ACN (90:10 v/v) as mobile phase at 240 nm. The method was linear within the concentration range of 4.2-52.0 μg/ml for both drugs with limits of detection and quantification of 3.5 and 10.7 μg/ml for doxorubicin and 2.5 and 7.7 μg/ml for vorinostat, respectively. The method was precise and accurate over the concentration range of analysis. Drug loading was 5.4% for doxorubicin and 0.8% for vorinostat. Degradation of doxorubicin after irradiation was less than 5%, while the amount of vorinostat decreased at 88% under the same conditions. Thus, the validated method could be adopted for routine simultaneous analysis of doxorubicin and vorinostat in polymeric nanoparticles.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are epigenetic regulators and additionally control the activity of non-histone substrates. We recently demonstrated that inhibition of HDAC8 overexpressed in various of cancers reduces hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenicity in a T cell-dependent manner. Here, we present alkylated hydrazide-based class I HDAC inhibitors in which the n-hexyl side chain attached to the hydrazide moiety shows HDAC8 selectivity in vitro. Analysis of the mode of inhibition of the most promising compound 7d against HDAC8 revealed a substrate-competitive binding mode. 7d marked induced acetylation of the HDAC8 substrates H3K27 and SMC3 but not tubulin in CD4+ T lymphocytes, and significantly upregulated gene expressions for memory and effector functions. Furthermore, intraperitoneal injection of 7d (10 mg/kg) in C57BL/6 mice increased interleukin-2 expression in CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cell proportion with no apparent toxicity. This study expands a novel chemotype of HDAC8 inhibitors with T cell modulatory properties for future therapeutic applications.

Abstract
The development of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is highly associated with G-quadruplex (G4); thus, targeting G4 is a potential strategy for TNBC therapy. Because concomitant histone deacetylases (HDAC) inhibition could amplify the impact of G4-targeting compounds, we designed and synthesized two novel series of G4/HDAC dual-targeting compounds by connecting the zinc-binding pharmacophore of HDAC inhibitors to the G4-targeting isaindigotone scaffold (1). Among the new compounds, a6 with the potent HDAC inhibitory and G4 stabilizing activity could induce more DNA G4 formation than SAHA and 1 in TNBC cells. Remarkably, a6 caused more G4-related DNA damage and G4-related differentially expressed genes, consistent with its effect on disrupting the cell cycle, invasion, and glycolysis. Furthermore, a6 significantly suppresses the proliferation of various TNBC cells and the MDA-MB-231 xenograft model without evident toxicity. Our study suggests a novel strategy for TNBC therapeutics through dual-targeting HDAC and G4.

Abstract
Analyzing unstable small molecule drugs and metabolites in blood continues to be challenging for bioanalysis. Although scientific countermeasures such as immediate cooling, immediate freezing, addition of enzyme inhibitors, pH adjustment, dried blood spot or derivatization have been developed, selecting the best practices has become an issue in the pharmaceutical industry as the number of drugs with such problems is increasing, even for generic drugs. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive literature review and a questionnaire survey to determine a suitable practice for evaluating instability and implementing countermeasures. Three areas of focus, matrix selection, effect of hemolysis and selection of esterase inhibitors, are discussed.

Abstract
Chemical biology and drug discovery are two scientific activities that pursue different goals but complement each other. The former is an interventional science that aims at understanding living systems through the modulation of its molecular components with compounds designed for this purpose. The latter is the art of designing drug candidates, i.e., molecules that act on selected molecular components of human beings and display, as a candidate treatment, the best reachable risk benefit ratio. In chemical biology, the compound is the means to understand biology, whereas in drug discovery, the compound is the goal. The toolbox they share includes biological and chemical analytic technologies, cell and whole-body imaging, and exploring the chemical space through state-of-the-art design and synthesis tools. In this article, we examine several tools shared by drug discovery and chemical biology through selected examples taken from research projects conducted in our institute in the last decade. These examples illustrate the design of chemical probes and tools to identify and validate new targets, to quantify target engagement in vitro and in vivo, to discover hits and to optimize pharmacokinetic properties with the control of compound concentration both spatially and temporally in the various biophases of a biological system.

Abstract
Botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT/A) is an important therapeutic target owing to its extremely potent nature, but also has potential use as a biowarfare agent. Currently, no therapeutic exists to reverse the long-lasting paralysis caused by BoNT/A. Herein, we describe the identification of 3-hydroxy-1,2-dimethylpyridine-4(1H)-thione (3,4-HOPTO) as a metal binding warhead for the inhibition of BoNT/A1. An initial screen of 96 metal binding fragments identified three derivatives containing the 3,4-HOPTO scaffold to inhibit the BoNT/A1 light chain (LC) at >95% at 1 mM. Additional screening of a 3,4-HOPTO sub-library identified structure-activity relationships (SARs) between N-substituted 3,4-HOPTO derivatives and the BoNT/A1 LC. Subsequent synthesis was conducted to improve on inhibitory potency - achieving low μM biochemical IC50 values. Representative compounds were evaluated in a cellular-based assay and showed promising μM activity.

Abstract
The discovery of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors is a hot topic in the medicinal chemistry community regarding cancer research. This is related primarily to two factors: success in the clinic, e. g., the four FDA-approved HDAC inhibitors, and strong versatility to combine their pharmacophoric features to design new hybrid compounds with multitarget profiles. Thus, the selection of adequate pharmacophores to combine, i. e., combining targets that can result in a synergistic effect, is desirable, as it increases the probability of discovering a new useful therapeutic strategy. In this work, we highlight the design of multitarget HDAC/PI3K inhibitors. Although this approach is still in its early stages, many significant works have described the design and pharmacological evaluation of this new promising class of multitarget inhibitors, where compound CUDC-907, which is already in clinical trials, stands out. Therefore, the question emerges of whether there still space for the design and evaluation of new multitarget HDAC/PI3K inhibitors. When considering the selectivity profile of the described multitarget compounds, the answer appears to be in the affirmative, especially since the first examples of compounds with a certain selectivity profile only recently appeared in 2020.

Abstract
The ability to maintain analyte stability is crucial in order to obtain accurate and meaningful data. Stability should be evaluated in a manner that the entire lifecycle of the sample is taken into account, that is, from the moment the sample is collected from the patient until the last analysis is complete. Evaluation of the sample collection and handling procedure is thus necessary in order to prevent analyte instability potentially encountered downstream in the analytical process. This manuscript details cases of analyte instability attributed to factors such as enzymatic degradation, matrix composition, analytical technique and oxidation to name a few. As well each case describes a unique collection and handling procedure that was necessary to achieve stability prior to analysis.

The Rebirth of Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibitors: Moving Beyond the Dogma. Cells 2019; 8:cells8090984. [PMID: 31461880 PMCID: PMC6769477 DOI: 10.3390/cells8090984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 173] [Impact Index Per Article: 34.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2019] [Revised: 08/22/2019] [Accepted: 08/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
The pursuit of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors began in earnest over three decades ago. Initial clinical trials were disappointing, resulting in a negative view of MMPs as therapeutic targets. As a better understanding of MMP biology and inhibitor pharmacokinetic properties emerged, it became clear that initial MMP inhibitor clinical trials were held prematurely. Further complicating matters were problematic conclusions drawn from animal model studies. The most recent generation of MMP inhibitors have desirable selectivities and improved pharmacokinetics, resulting in improved toxicity profiles. Application of selective MMP inhibitors led to the conclusion that MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-13, and MT1-MMP are not involved in musculoskeletal syndrome, a common side effect observed with broad spectrum MMP inhibitors. Specific activities within a single MMP can now be inhibited. Better definition of the roles of MMPs in immunological responses and inflammation will help inform clinic trials, and multiple studies indicate that modulating MMP activity can improve immunotherapy. There is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved MMP inhibitor for periodontal disease, and several MMP inhibitors are in clinic trials, targeting a variety of maladies including gastric cancer, diabetic foot ulcers, and multiple sclerosis. It is clearly time to move on from the dogma of viewing MMP inhibition as intractable.

Abstract
PURPOSE Time is a critical factor in drug action. The duration of inhibition of the target or residence time of the drug molecule on the target often guides drug scheduling. METHODS The effects of time on the concentration-dependent cytotoxicity of approved and investigational agents [300 compounds] were examined in the NCI60 cell line panel in 2D at 2, 3, 7 and in 3D 11 days. RESULTS There was a moderate positive linear relationship between data from the 2-day NCI60 screen and the 3-, 7- and 11-day and a strong positive linear relationship between 3-, 7- and 11-day luminescence screen IC50s by Pearson correlation analysis. Cell growth inhibition by agents selective for a specific cell cycle phase plateaued when susceptible cells were growth inhibited or killed. As time increased the depth of cell growth inhibition increased without change in the IC50. DNA interactive agents had decreasing IC50s with increasing exposure time. Epigenetic agents required longer exposure times; several were only cytotoxic after 11 days' exposure. For HDAC inhibitors, time had little or no effect on concentration response. There were potency differences amongst the three BET bromodomain inhibitors tested, and an exposure duration effect. The PARP inhibitors, rucaparib, niraparib, and veliparib reached IC50s < 10 μM in some cell lines after 11 days. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that variations in compound exposure time may reflect either mechanism of action or compound chemical half-life. The activity of slow-acting compounds may optimally be assessed in spheroid models that can be monitored over prolonged incubation times.

Abstract
Despite promising therapeutic utilities for treatment of hematological malignancies, histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) drugs have not proven as effective in the treatment of solid tumors. To expand the clinical indications of HDACi drugs, we developed novel boron-containing prodrugs of belinostat (2), one of which efficiently releases active 2 through a cascade of reactions in cell culture and demonstrates activities comparable to 2 against a panel of cancer cell lines. Importantly, prodrug 7 is more efficacious than belinostat in vivo, not only inhibiting the growth of tumor but also reducing tumor volumes in an MCF-7 xenograft tumor model owing to its superior biocompatibility, which suggests its clinical potential in the treatment of solid tumors.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDAC inhibitors) are used to treat malignancies such as cutaneous T cell lymphoma and peripheral T cell lymphoma. Only four drugs are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, namely vorinostat, romidepsin, panobinostat and belinostat, while chidamide has been approved in China. There are a number of bioanalytical methods reported for the measurement of HDAC inhibitors in clinical (human plasma and serum) and preclinical (mouse plasma, rat plasma, urine and tissue homogenates, etc.) studies. This review covers various HDAC inhibitors such as vorinostat, romidepsin, panobinostat, belinostat and chidamide. In addition to providing a comprehensive review of the available methods for the above mentioned HDAC inhibitors, it also provides case studies with perspectives for chosen drugs. Based on the review, it is concluded that the published methodologies using either HPLC or LC-MS/MS are well suited for the quantification of HDAC inhibitors in various biological fluids to delineate pharmacokinetic data.

Abstract
In bioanalysis of small molecules, the analyte concentration in the measured samples should reflect the concentration during sample collection. Precautions may be needed to prevent over- or under-estimation of the obtained result. This might require the addition of stabilizers to prevent degradation or nonspecific binding. For unstable drugs, it is essential to know how analytes can be stabilized before the start of the clinical study. Although the stabilization methods are well documented, the impact of the stabilization on the clinical workflow is not properly addressed. Already during method development, the clinical implications in terms of personnel safety, ease of use, training possibilities and staff capacity should be taken into account, and validation of the bioanalytical method should reflect collection procedures.

Abstract
In vivo histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition by vorinostat under clinically acceptable dosing is limited by its poor pharmacokinetics properties. A new type of nontoxic pH-responsive delivery system has been synthesized by ring-opening metathesis polymerization, allowing for the selective distribution of vorinostat in mesothelioma tumors in vivo and subsequent histone reacetylation. The delivery system is synthesized by generic click chemistry, possesses native stealth properties for passive tumor targeting, and does not need additional chemistry for cellular internalization. Although vorinostat alone at 50 mg/kg in mice showed no effect, our new delivery system with 2 mg/kg vorinostat promoted histone reacetylation in tumors without side effects, demonstrating that our strategy improves the activity of this HDAC inihibitor in vivo.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important enzymes in epigenetic regulation and are therapeutic targets for cancer. Most zinc-dependent HDACs induce proliferation, dedifferentiation, and anti-apoptotic effects in cancer cells. We designed and synthesized a new series of pyridone-based HDAC inhibitors that have a pyridone ring in the core structure and a conjugated system with an olefin connecting the hydroxamic acid moiety. Consequently, most of the selected pyridone-based HDAC inhibitors showed similar or higher inhibition profiles in addition to remarkable metabolic stability against hydrolysis relative to the corresponding lactam-based HDAC inhibitors. Furthermore, the selectivity of the novel pyridine-based compounds was evaluated across all of the HDAC isoforms. One of these compounds, (E)-N-hydroxy-3-{1-[3-(naphthalen-2-yl)propyl]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-3-yl}acrylamide, exhibited the highest level of HDAC inhibition (IC(50) =0.07 μM), highly selective inhibition of class I HDAC1 and class II HDAC6 enzymes, metabolic stability in mouse liver microsomal studies, and effective growth inhibition of various cancer cell lines. Docking studies indicated that a long alkyl linker and bulky hydrophobic cap groups affect in vitro activities. Overall, the findings reported herein regarding pyridone-based HDAC inhibitors can be used to guide future research efforts to develop new and effective anticancer therapeutics.

Abstract
As opposed to genetics, dealing with gene expressions by direct DNA sequence modifications, the term epigenetics applies to all the external influences that target the chromatin structure of cells with impact on gene expression unrelated to the sequence coding of DNA itself. In normal cells, epigenetics modulates gene expression through all development steps. When "imprinted" early by the environment, epigenetic changes influence the organism at an early stage and can be transmitted to the progeny. Together with DNA sequence alterations, DNA aberrant cytosine methylation and microRNA deregulation, epigenetic modifications participate in the malignant transformation of cells. Their reversible nature has led to the emergence of the promising field of epigenetic therapy. The efforts made to inhibit in particular the epigenetic enzyme family called histone deacetylases (HDACs) are described. HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) have been proposed as a viable clinical therapeutic approach for the treatment of leukemia and solid tumors, but also to a lesser degree for noncancerous diseases. Three epigenetic drugs are already arriving at the patient's bedside, and more than 100 clinical assays for HDACi are registered on the National Cancer Institute website. They explore the eventual additive benefits of combined therapies. In the context of the pleiotropic effects of HDAC isoforms, more specific HDACi and more informative screening tests are being developed for the benefit of the patients.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics aims to elucidate how genetic variation affects the efficacy and side effects of drugs, with the ultimate goal of personalizing medicine. Clinical studies of the genetic variation in the uridine 5'-diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase gene have demonstrated how reduced-function allele variants can predict the risk of severe toxicity and help identify cancer patients who could benefit from reduced-dose schedules or alternative chemotherapy. Candidate polymorphisms have also been identified in vitro, although the functional consequences of these variants still need to be tested in the clinical setting. Future approaches in uridine 5'-diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase pharmacogenetics include genetic testing prior to drug treatment, genotype-directed dose-escalation studies, study of genetic variation at the haplotype level and genome-wide studies.

Abstract
The use of LC–MS for bioanalysis of pharmaceuticals is entering its third decade and may be considered to be a mature technology. In many respects this is true, considering the advances made in such areas as instrument performance, electronics, software and automation of use. However, there remain instrumental and noninstrumental areas that require significant attention to ensure data quality. Increasing regulatory focus on analytical method performance and unaddressed method issues require the bioanalyst to understand those areas that most greatly impact data quality. This review will focus on instrumental and noninstrumental areas that can influence data quality, including reference standard and internal standard quality and physicochemical properties, matrix effects, stability in matrix, sample preparation, LC and MS.

Abstract
Hydroxamates are valuable tools for chemical biology as well as interesting leads for medicinal chemistry. Although many hydroxamates display nanomolar activities against metalloproteases, only three hydroxamates have reached the market, among which is the HDAC inhibitor vorinostat. Failures in development are generally attributed to lack of selectivity, toxicity, or poor stability. To help medicinal chemists with respect to plasma stability, we have performed the first and preliminary study on structure-plasma stability for hydroxamates. We define some structural rules to predict or improve the plasma stability in the preclinical stage.

Abstract
Vorinostat (suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid), a potent, oral histone deacetylase inhibitor, has demonstrated clinical activity in non-Japanese patients with various hematological and solid tumors. We sought to determine the maximum tolerated dose and a recommended phase II dose for 18 Japanese patients with solid tumors (median age, 58 years; range, 25-72 years) who failed standard therapy. Patients received vorinostat for 14 days followed by a 7-day rest. The initial dose was 100 mg twice daily escalating by 100 mg twice daily. Once-daily dosing was tested at 400 and 500 mg. A maximum tolerated dose could not be identified. Dose-limiting toxicities (thrombocytopenia, anorexia, and fatigue) were observed in two of six patients receiving 200 mg twice daily and in one of six patients receiving 500 mg once daily. In the 100-500 mg dose range, vorinostat area under the concentration-time curve increased in proportion to dose with a pharmacokinetic profile similar to that established in non-Japanese patients. Vorinostat doses of 200 mg twice daily or 500 mg once daily for 14 days followed by a 7-day rest were well tolerated and are candidate doses for phase II trials, although a maximum tolerated dose for vorinostat was not reached.
