Usage

Description

Different sources of media describe the Description of 1004316-88-4 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Cobicistat (GS-9350) is a potent and selective inhibitor of CYP3A with IC50 of 30-285 nM.
2. Cobicistat, a selective, mechanism-based CYP3A inhibitor, was discovered and developed by Gilead Sciences, Inc. In 2013, European Medicines Agency (EMA) approved cobicistat (Tybost) for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in combination with protease inhibitors (PIs) atazanavir or darunavir. Interestingly, cobicistat does not interact with HIV directly, but instead serves as a pharmacokinetic enhancer to boost the anti-HIV effect of atazanavir or darunavir through blockade of CYP3A. Cobicistat slows CYP-mediated metabolism of atazanavir and darunavir, resulting in prolonged systemic exposure of the drug(s). Cobicistat is also available as part of a fixed-dose combination tablet (Stribild) of four additional drugs with CYP3A liabilities (elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate), which was approved in U.S. in 2012, and subsequently approved in Europe and Japan in 2013.

In vitro

Cobicistat (GS-9350) is a potent, and selective inhibitor of human cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) enzymes as a pharmacoenhancer. GS-9350 inhibits CYP3A with IC50 spectrum from 30 nM to 285 nM. In contrast to ritonavir, GS-9350 is devoid of anti-HIV activity, with IC50 of > 30μM against HIV-1 protease and EC50 of > 30μM in MT-2 HIV infection assay, and is thus more suitable for use in boosting anti-HIV drugs without risking selection of potential drug-resistant HIV variants. GS-9350 shows reduced liability for drug interactions and may have potential improvements in tolerability over ritonavir.

Uses

Different sources of media describe the Uses of 1004316-88-4 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Cobicistat is a HIV protease inhibitor and have been coadministered with low-dose ritonavir (R535000) as a pharmacoenhancer, significantly increasing their plasma concentrations.
2. Isotope labelled analogue of Cobicistat (C633150), a HIV protease inhibitor and have been coadministered with low-dose ritonavir (R535000) as a pharmacoenhancer, significantly increasing their plasma concentrations.
3. Antiretroviral;Labeled Cobicistat, intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of Cobicistat by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry.

Clinical Use

Pharmacokinetic enhancer used to increase the effect of atazanavir and darunavir

Synthesis

Commercial L-methionine (24) was treated with bromoacetic acid at elevated temperatures to afford aminolactone salt 25 in 70% yield. This material was then reacted with methyl aminomethylthiazole (26) in the presence of CDI and diisopropylethylamine to arrive at urea 27 in 91% yield. Next, lactone 27 underwent a ring-opening sequence upon exposure to trimethylsilyl iodide (TMSI) giving intermediate 28. The iodide was then displaced by morpholine, followed by treatment with oxalic acid to deliver the L-thiazole morpholine ethyl ester as the oxalate salt 29 in 71% yield for the sequence. Base-mediated hydrolysis of ethyl ester 29, followed by treatment of carboxylate 30 with mono-carbonate hydrochloride 31 in the presence of EDCI and HOBT, provided cobicistat (V) in 76% yield for two steps.

Drug interactions

Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugsAlpha-blockers: concentration of alfuzosin possibly increased - avoid. Anti-arrhythmics: concentration of amiodarone possibly increased - avoid.

Immunosuppression: concentration of ciclosporin, sirolimus and tacrolimus possibly increased. Lipid-lowering drugs: concentration of atorvastatin possibly increased - reduce atorvastatin dose; avoid with simvastatin. Oestrogens: metabolism of oestrogens accelerated, reduced contraceptive effect - avoid or use with caution. Salmeterol: avoid concomitant use. Sildenafil: concentration of sildenafil possibly increased - avoid sildenafil for pulmonary arterial hypertension, reduce dose for erectile dysfunction. Tadalafil: concentration of tadalafil possibly increased - reduce dose of tadalafil. Vardenafil: concentration of vardenafil possibly increased - reduce dose of vardenafil.

Metabolism

Cobicistat is metabolised via CYP3A (major)- and CYP2D6 (minor)-mediated oxidation. Following oral administration of [14C]-cobicistat, 99% of circulating radioactivity in plasma was unchanged cobicistat. Low levels of metabolites are observed in urine and faeces and do not contribute to the CYP3A inhibitory activity of cobicistat.Following oral administration of [14C]-cobicistat, 86% and 8.2% of the dose were recovered in faeces and urine, respectively.
