Disclosed are prodrugs of inactivators of 06-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT). The prodrugs are cleavable by the (3-glucuronidase enzyme, which is either administered to the patient or produced by necrotic tumor cells. The prodrugs are represented by the formula A-B-C, wherein A is a glucuronosyl residue linked through its 1-oxygen to the phenyl ring of B; B is a benzyloxycarbonyl group, optionally ring substituted with one or more electron withdrawing groups; and C is an inactivator of AGT, e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted 06-benzylguanine or 06-benzyl-2'-deoxyguanosine. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a prodrug and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and a method of use of the prodrugs in enhancing the chemotherapeutic treatment of tumor cells in a mammal, e.g., a human, with an antineoplastic alkylating agent that causes cytotoxic lesions at the 06-position of guanine.
本发明公开了06-烷基鸟嘌呤-DNA烷基转移酶(AGT)失活剂的前药。这些前药可以被(3-葡萄糖醛酸酶酶)水解,该酶可以被注射到患者体内或由坏死肿瘤细胞产生。前药由公式A-B-C表示,其中A是通过其1-氧原子与B的苯环连接的葡萄糖醛酸残基;B是苄氧羰基基团,可以选择性地被一个或多个电子提取基团取代;而C是AGT的失活剂,例如取代或未取代的06-苄基鸟嘌呤或06-苄基-2'-脱氧鸟苷。本发明还公开了包含前药和药学上可接受的载体的制药组合物,以及在增强哺乳动物(例如人类)中肿瘤细胞的化疗治疗中使用前药的方法,该方法使用一种抗肿瘤烷基化剂,在鸟嘌呤的06位引起细胞毒性损伤。
