Brefeldin A (BFA), a well-known natural Arf-GEFs inhibitor, is effective against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), while the poor solubility, serious toxicity, and short half-life limit its potential. Herein, distinct corresponding prodrugs of BFA, including esters 1–15, carbonates 16–24 and 30–32, and carbamates 25–29, were synthesized and evaluated.

Brefeldin A (BFA) 是一种众所周知的天然 Arf-GEFs 抑制剂,对肝细胞癌 (HCC) 有效,但溶解度差、毒性严重和半衰期短限制了其潜力。在此,合成和评估了不同的相应BFA前药,包括酯1-15、碳酸酯16-24和30-32,以及氨基甲酸酯25-29 。具有改善的水溶性 (15–20 mg/mL)的 CHNQD-01255 ( 16 ) 表现出良好的药代动力学特征。它通过在体内快速转化为 BFA 表现出预期的效果, 并实现了足够高的血浆暴露量、延长的半衰期以及 BFA 的生物利用度提高 ( F = 18.96%)。同时,CHNQD-01255在异种移植模型中以 45 mg/kg (po) 的剂量显着抑制肿瘤生长 (TGI = 61.0%)。值得注意的是,CHNQD-01255 (MTD > 750 mg/kg, po) 的改进安全性被证实优于 BFA (MTD < 506
