Description:
Purpose To study the pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution and metabolism of IPI-504 and 17-AAG in rats, cynomolgus monkeys and tumor-bearing mice. Methods IPI-504 or 17-AAG were administered intravenously to mice, rats, and monkeys. Plasma and tissue were collected and quenched with antioxidant-containing acidic quench buffers to preserve the hydroquinone, IPI-504. Samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS to quantitate IPI-504, 17-AAG and the major metabolite 17-AG. In vitro metabolism studies were performed by incubation of IPI-504 or 17-AAG in human, rat and cynomolgus monkey liver microsomes and determination of the metabolic profile by HPLC-UV and LC-MS. Results IPI-504 is the hydrochloride salt of the hydroquinone of 17-AAG. We observed that IPI-504 and 17-AAG interconvert in vitro in liver microsomes and tumor cells with identical metabolic profiles. The interconversion is due to IPI-504 oxidation and 17-AAG enzymatic reduction. The same interconversion was observed in vivo after IPI-504 or 17-AAG administration in mice (tumor-bearing), rats, and monkeys leading to similar pharmacokinetic and tissue distribution profiles for IPI-504, 17-AAG and 17-AG in all species. Quantitatively, the combined concentrations of IPI-504 and 17-AAG indicate a higher exposure in the rat versus cynomolgus monkey with a Cmax/Dose and an AUC0-8/Dose of 105 nM/mg/m2 and 97 nM.h/mg/m2, respectively, in the rat versus 44 nM/mg/m2 and 41 nM.h/mg/m2, respectively, in the monkey. Higher exposure in the rat is further supported by tissue distribution data showing a combined concentration of IPI-504, 17-AAG and 17-AG in rat liver of 32.5 µg/g versus 0.6 µg/g in the monkey 6 h after administration of 300 mg/m2 IPI-504. In tumor-bearing mice, IPI-504, 17-AAG and 17-AG were rapidly cleared from plasma within 1-2 hours, but are selectively retained for up to 48 hours in tumor tissue at pharmacologically active concentrations. Conclusion IPI-504 and 17-AAG have similar pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles due to the hydroquinone-quinone interconversion of both compounds.

Appears the solubility advantage is the only one they've got. Of course, it might be a pretty significant advantage . . .

Cheers, Tuck
