Preparation and Preliminary Evaluation of Novel β-Cyclodextrin/IUDR Prodrug Formulations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: Iododeoxyuridine (IUdR) has a very short in vivo half-life and consequently achieves low target-tissue concentrations with concomitant lower efficacy than would be predicted from in vitro studies. This work reports the preparation of IUdR:beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CyD) inclusion complexes designed to reduce in vivo inactivation of IUdR. METHODS: IUdR was derivatized with either 1-adamantanecarbonyl chloride or 4-(1-adamantyl-carbamoyl)butanoic acid, to prepare 5'-O-(1-adamantoyl)-5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine 1 and 5'-O-(4-(1-adamantylcarbamoyl)butoyl)-5-iodo-2'-deoxy-uridine 4, respectively. beta-CyD complexes 5 and 6 were formed by vigorous stirring of 1:1 solutions of beta-CyD and 1 or 4, respectively, in D2O under argon. Complexation was inferred from DSC, powder x-ray diffractometry and NMR spectrometry. The dissociation of 5 in water and under cholesterol challenge, and the effect of complexation on the stability of 1 was determined by incubation in plasma. RESULTS: IUdR coupling with adamantanecarbonyl chloride proceeded smoothly to afford 1 (69 %) and the di-substituted derivative, 3',5'-di-O-(1-adamantoyl)-5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine 2 (8 %); 4 was obtained in 42 % yield. The formation of 1:1 complexes 5 and 6 was inferred from NMR chemical shift data. In serum, 1 was 90 % hydrolyzed to IUdR in 30 min, compared to 10 % hydrolysis of 1 to IUdR when from complex 5. CONCLUSIONS: Inclusion complexes were formed between beta-CyD and adamantamine-IUdR conjugates at 1:1 molar ratios. The complex 5 was resistant to dissociation by cholesterol challenge, and 5 was more slowly converted to IUdR than non-complexed 1. In vivo studies are required to further exploit the beta-CyD inclusion complex approach for improved delivery of nucleoside derivatives.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
