Expanding the Repertoire for "Large Small Molecules": Prodrug ABBV-167 Efficiently Converts to Venetoclax with Reduced Food Effect in Healthy Volunteers.

PubMed Abstract: Since gaining approval for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax has transformed the treatment of this and other blood-related cancers. Reflecting the large and hydrophobic BH3-binding groove within BCL-2, venetoclax has significantly higher molecular weight and lipophilicity than most orally administered drugs, along with negligible water solubility. Although a technology-enabled formulation successfully achieves oral absorption in humans, venetoclax tablets have limited drug loading and therefore can present a substantial pill burden for patients in high-dose indications. We therefore generated a phosphate prodrug (, ABBV-167) that confers significantly increased water solubility to venetoclax and, upon oral administration to healthy volunteers either as a solution or high drug-load immediate release tablet, extensively converts to the parent drug. Additionally, ABBV-167 demonstrated a lower food effect with respect to venetoclax tablets. These data indicate that beyond-rule-of-5 molecules can be successfully delivered to humans via a solubility-enhancing prodrug moiety to afford robust exposures of the parent drug following oral dosing.
