Description

[0001] Cross-reference to related applications

[0002] This application claims the benefit and priority of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 63 / 141,445, filed January 25, 2021, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Technical Field

[0003] This disclosure relates to an adenosine derivative prodrug that can inhibit reverse transcriptase. This disclosure also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising an adenosine derivative prodrug and a capsid inhibitor, which may be used to treat or prevent acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), HIV-1, HIV-2, multidrug-resistant HIV, or combinations thereof. Background Technology

[0004] Retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are associated with an immunosuppressive disease called acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Several retroviral strains, such as HIV type 1 (HIV-1) and type 2 (HIV-2), are known to be associated with this disease. Individuals infected with HIV retroviruses may initially be asymptomatic but subsequently develop AIDS-related syndrome (ARC), which then progresses to AIDS. HIV replication in host cells requires the integration of the viral genome into the host cell's DNA. A key step in this process involves the viral RNA genome being transcribed into DNA via an enzyme called reverse transcriptase (RT).

[0005] Reverse transcriptases typically possess multiple enzymatic functions, acting as (1) RNA-dependent DNA polymerases that synthesize single-stranded DNA copies (first DNA) of viral RNA, (2) ribonucleases that break down the original viral RNA and release the DNA just generated from it, and (3) DNA-dependent DNA polymerases that use the first DNA strand as a template to generate a second complementary DNA strand. The two DNA strands then form a double-stranded DNA, which is integrated into the host cell's genome by integrase.

[0006] Many compounds can inhibit reverse transcriptase (RT) activity. These compounds can be used to treat HIV infection in humans by inhibiting HIV replication in infected cells or individuals. Examples of compounds approved for the treatment of HIV infection and AIDS include nucleoside RT inhibitors (NRTIs) such as 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT, also known as zidovudine (ZDV), azidothymidine (AZT)), 2',3'-dideoxyinosine (ddl), 2',3'-dideoxycytidine (ddC), d4T, 3TC, abacavir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, and non-nucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTIs) such as nevirapine, delavirdine, efavirenz, rilpivirine, and doravirine (DHHS Guidelines: https: / / aidsinfo.nih.gov / understanding-hiv-aids, Iyidogan & Anderson, Viruses, 6, 4095-4139, 2014, doi:10.3390 / v6104095; Hayakawa et al., Antiviral Chem & Chemotherapy, 15: 169-187, 2004; Ohrul et al., J. Med. Chem. 43, 4516-4525, 2000; Pauwels, Antiviral Research, 71, 77-89, 2006.).

[0007] The adenosine derivative EFdA (4'-ethynyl-2-fluoro-2'-deoxyadenosine, also known as MK-8591, islatrivir) is a long-acting (LA) NRTI that has been shown to have anti-HIV activity via inhibition of reverse transcriptase by blocking translocation (U.S. Patent Nos.: 7,339,053, 7,625,877, 8,039,614. Singh et al., Pharmaceuticals, 12, 62, 2019, DOI: 10.3390 / ph12020062, each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). This compound has broad inhibitory activity and potency against different subtypes and mutations, including HIV-1, HIV-2, and multi-drug resistant (MDR) and wild-type (WT) strains, as well as reverse transcriptase inhibitor (RTI)-resistant viruses. Some modified EFdA analogs and prodrugs are described in U.S. Patent Publication No.: 2018 / 0002366, incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

[0008] A common problem with the treatment of HIV infection with antiretroviral inhibitory compounds is the development of viral resistance to the inhibitors. This resistance is often the result of mutations occurring in the pol gene reverse transcriptase segment. Continued use of antiviral compounds, such as inhibitory compounds, to prevent HIV infection will inevitably lead to the emergence of new HIV resistant strains. Thus, there is a continuing need for new RT inhibitors effective against HIV strains, including mutant HIV and multi-drug resistant HIV strains.

[0009] Another common problem is medication adherence. Medication adherence is critical for individuals with HIV to have a successful therapy over their lifetime. Adherence to a daily regimen can be challenging and also negatively impacts the patient’s quality of life as they are reminded of their HIV status every day. By reducing the frequency of dosing, patient adherence to a drug regimen can potentially be increased. Thus, there is a need to identify long-acting compounds or regimens (e.g., once-a-week, once-a-month, or once- every-two-months therapy) for patients to overcome these challenges associated with taking oral medications every day.

Any of the foregoing adenosine derivatives can be suitable. Any of the foregoing pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be suitable.

[0431] The present disclosure further relates to a method for preventing an infection in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject an effective dose of any of the pharmaceutical compositions or therapeutic compositions disclosed herein, wherein the subject does not have detectable symptoms of the infection. In some embodiments, the infection comprises a disease selected from the group consisting of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), wild-type HIV-1, NRTI-resistant HIV-1, HIV-2, HIV with the M184V mutation, HIV with K65R, multi-drug resistant HIV, an RNA viral infection, or a combination thereof.

[0432] Detectable symptoms can include, but are not limited to, symptoms of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), infection with the HIV virus (including wild-type HIV-1, NRTI-resistant HIV-1, HIV-2, HIV with the M184V mutation, HIV with K65R, multi-drug resistant HIV), or a combination thereof. Detection of the HIV virus can be accomplished by PCR, reverse PCR, immuno-detection of antigens or antibodies associated with AIDS or HIV.

[0433] Without being bound by any particular theory, it is an advantage of the compositions and methods of the present application that the adenosine derivatives disclosed herein can be rapidly converted to the target drug. As demonstrated below in the Examples, greater than about 60% of the adenosine derivatives of the present disclosure are surprisingly and unexpectedly converted to the target drug within about 30 minutes of contact with human plasma.

[0434] One advantage of the combination of an adenosine derivative and a capsid (CA) inhibitor such as GS-6207 (ledipasvir) can be the potential benefit of preventing HIV infection via pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP), a way for people who do not have HIV but are at substantial risk of becoming infected with HIV to prevent HIV infection by routinely taking medication. Currently, a drug available under the brand name Truvada contains two drugs (tenofovir and emtricitabine) that can be used in combination with other drugs to treat HIV. These drugs can work to prevent the virus from establishing a permanent infection when a person is exposed to HIV. The combination of an adenosine derivative and a capsid (CA) inhibitor such as GS-6207 (ledipasvir) disclosed herein can provide additional PrEP for HIV prevention, preferably on a once-weekly (QW) schedule. PrEP is known to be very effective at preventing HIV when taken consistently. If it is not taken consistently, PrEP is much less effective. The once-weekly (QW) schedule of the combination of an adenosine derivative and a capsid (CA) inhibitor such as GS-6207 (ledipasvir) disclosed herein can provide convenience and help maintain consistent medication intake, and thereby help HIV prevention.

[0685] Conversion and stability of adenosine derivative prodrugs

[0686] The stability of the prodrugs and conversion of the prodrugs to the target drug, adenosine derivative (EFdA) (Formula T-1A), were measured in plasma and liver S9 assays, and the data are given in Table 2.

[0687] Plasma stability

[0688] Prior to the experiment, the pooled frozen plasma was thawed at 37 °C in a water bath. The plasma was centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 5 minutes and if there were clots, the clots were removed. If necessary, the pH was adjusted to 7.4 ± 0.1.

[0689] Preparation of test compound and positive control (propantheline): 1 mM intermediate solution was prepared by diluting 10 pL of stock solution with 90 pL MeOH; 1 mM positive control propantheline intermediate solution was prepared by diluting 10 pL of stock solution with 90 pL ultrapure water. 100 pM dosing solution was prepared by diluting 20 pL of intermediate solution (1 mM) with 180 pL MeOH. 2 pL of dosing solution (100 pM) was spiked in duplicate in 98 pL of blank plasma to reach a final concentration of 2 pM and the samples were incubated at 37 °C in a water bath. At each time point (0, 10, 30, 60, and 120 minutes), 400 pL of stop solution (0.1% FA in MeOH containing 200 ng / mL tolbutamide and 200 ng / mL labetalol) was added to precipitate the proteins and mixed well. The sample plate was centrifuged at 4,000 rpm for 10 minutes. An aliquot of supernatant (100 pL) was transferred from each well to another plate.

[0690] Data Analysis: The % remaining of test compound after incubation in plasma was calculated using the following equation:

[0691] % Remaining = 100 x (PAR at specified incubation time / PAR at TO time)

[0692] Where PAR is the peak area ratio of analyte to internal standard (IS) (LC / MS / MS mobile phase conditions: water with 0.1% formic acid / acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid. Specified incubation time points are TO (0 min), Tn (n = 0, 10, 30, 60, 120 min).

[0693] Liver S9 stability

[0694] Intermediate solution: 5 pL of compound from stock solution (10 mM) or control (7-ethoxy coumarin) was diluted with 495 pL MeOH (concentration: 100 pM, 1% DMSO, 99% MeOH). Stop solution: cold ACN (containing 100 ng / mL tolbutamide and labetalol as internal standards). 2 pL of test compound or control working solution per well was added to all plates except matrix blank (TO, T5, T10, T20, T30, T60, NCF60). 600 pL / well stop solution (4°C cold, containing 100 ng / mL tolbutamide / 100 ng / mL labetalol) was added to the TO plate to stop the reaction, which was then placed on ice. 840 pL / well S9 solution was dispensed into a 96-well plate as a reservoir according to the plate map. 100 pL / well was then added to each plate by Apricot. The S9 solution and compound were incubated at 37°C for approximately 10 minutes, except for NCF60 and TO. After adding S9 solution and 98 pL PB buffer to NCF60, the timer 1 was started at 37°C without pre-warming. After 60 minutes, 600 pL / well stop solution was added to stop the reaction. After pre-warming, 760 pL / well cofactor solution was dispensed into a 96-well plate as a reservoir according to the plate map. 98 pL / well was then added to each plate with Apricot to start the reaction. The reaction was incubated at 37°C, timer 2 was started, and 600 pL / well stop solution (4°C cold, containing 100 ng / mL tolbutamide and labetalol) was added to stop the reaction. The samples were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 20 minutes. While centrifuging, 8x new 96-well plates were loaded with 300 pL HPLC water, and then 100 pL supernatant was transferred to mix with water for LC / MS / MS and to Bioanalytical Services for LC-MS / MS analysis. The t 1 / 2 and CL: First order kinetic equation:

[0706] Method Compound preparation: Compound stocks (10 mM in DMSO) of prodrug Formula 4-A and lenacapavir were prepared and aliquoted. The stocks were stored at -20 °C until the day of the assay. The compound stocks were used to make fresh working drug dilutions on each day of the assay setup. Each aliquot of the compound stock was used only once and was discarded after the experiment. Fresh assay working dilutions were prepared for each experiment using a previously unused aliquot of the stock to avoid compound degradation. Each dilution of Formula 4-A was tested in combination with five dilutions of the second anti-HIV drug, the capsid inhibitor lenacapavir. In all cases, the final DMSO concentration was <0.25%, which has been previously shown to have no effect in the described assay.

[0707] Virus strains and cell lines: The viruses and cell lines used for these evaluations were obtained from the NIH AIDS Research and Reference Reagent Program (Germantown, Maryland). Evaluations were performed using a cell protection (CPE) assay method.

[0708] For each antiviral assay, pre-titrated aliquots of virus were removed from the freezer (-80°C) and quickly thawed. The virus was resuspended and diluted into tissue culture medium such that the amount of virus added to each well was that determined to produce 85% to 95% loss of cell viability due to virus-induced cytopathic effect (CPE assay).

[0709] Antiviral efficacy assay in MT4 T cells: MT4 cells were passaged in T-75 flasks prior to use in antiviral assays. The day before the assay, cells were split 1 :2 to ensure they were in exponential growth phase at the time of infection. Total cells and viability were quantified using a hemocytometer and trypan blue exclusion assay. Cells to be used in the assay needed to have greater than 95% cell viability. Cells were resuspended in tissue culture medium and added to drug-containing microtiter plates in a volume of 110 μl / well and a seeding density of 5.0 x 105cells / well. 3 The assay was performed in duplicate.

[0710] For each assay, pre-titrated aliquots of HIV-1 NL4-3 virus were removed from the freezer (-80°C) and allowed to slowly thaw to room temperature in a biological safety cabinet. The virus was resuspended and diluted into tissue culture medium such that the amount of virus added to each well in a 50 μL volume was that determined to produce 85% to 95% cell killing at 6 days post-infection. TCID50assays were performed in MT4 cells by endpoint titration. 50 Calculations indicated that the multiplicity of infection for these assays was approximately 0.01.

[0711] Five concentrations of Ledecavir were tested in all possible combinations with eight concentrations of Formula 4-A using a checkerboard format. Combination antiviral efficacy was evaluated on three replicate assay plates (i.e., triplicate measurements) that included cell control wells (cells only) and virus control wells (cells plus virus). Combination cytotoxicity was evaluated in parallel on two replicate assay plates (i.e., duplicate measurements) that included cell control wells. Compound color control plates were included for background subtraction when color was observed at the concentrations of compounds used in the experiment. Antiviral efficacy and cytotoxicity were monitored at the end of the experiment by MTS staining.

[0712] MTS staining for cell viability: At the termination of the assay, the wells were stained with the soluble tetrazolium-based dye MTS reagent (Promega, Madison, WI) and incubated for 4 hours at 37°C. The amount of formazan product produced by viable cells was quantified by measuring the absorbance at 490 nm using a microplate reader. 96 Reagent, Promega under their respective registered trademarks) to determine cell viability and quantify compound toxicity. MTS is metabolized by the mitochondrial enzymes of metabolically active cells to produce a soluble formazan product, allowing rapid quantitative analysis of cell viability and compound cytotoxicity. At the end of the assay, 20 μΐ^of MTS reagent was added to each well and the microtiter plate was then incubated at 37 °C, 5% C02 for 4-6 hours for the HIV cell protection assay; the incubation interval was chosen based on the empirically determined optimal dye reduction time. The sealed plate was inverted several times to mix the soluble formazan product using a adhesive plate sealer instead of a lid, and the plate was read spectrophotometrically at 490 / 650 nm using a Molecular Devices SpectraMax i3 plate reader.

[0713] Data Analysis: Combination antiviral assays were performed as described above with MT4 cells and HIV-1 NL4-3. For each combination assay, five concentrations of the compound were tested in all possible combinations with eight concentrations of the compound of Formula 4-A. Three replicates were used to determine the combination antiviral efficacy and two replicates were used to determine the combination cytotoxicity in uninfected MT4 cells. Each combination assay was performed twice unless otherwise noted.

[0714] The drug combination assay data was then analyzed using the MacSynergy II program for data analysis and statistical evaluation. Briefly, the MacSynergy II program calculates the theoretical additive interaction of drugs based on the Bliss independent mathematical definition of the expected effect of drug-drug interactions. The Bliss independent model is based on statistical probability and assumes that drugs act independently to affect viral replication; this independent effect model is also known as the dual-site (DS) model and was used for all combination analyses reported herein.

[0715] Theoretical additive interactions were calculated from the dose response curves of each drug used alone. This calculated additive surface, which represents the predicted or additive interaction, was then subtracted from the experimentally determined dose response surface to reveal non-additive activity regions. If the interaction was simply additive, the resulting surface would appear as a horizontal plane at 0% inhibition on the graph calculated above. Any peak above this additivity plane indicates synergy. Similarly, any depression below the additivity plane indicates antagonism. The data was statistically evaluated using the 95% confidence interval around the experimental dose-response surface, and the volume of the peaks / depressions was calculated and used to quantify the volume of synergy / antagonism produced. The volume of peaks observed in the synergy plots (in units of concentration by concentration by percent; e.g., μΜ x μΜ x %) was summed and divided by 100 to give the percent synergy observed for each combination. Similarly, the volume of depressions observed in the antagonism plots was summed and divided by 100 to give the percent antagonism observed for each combination. 2 %, nM 2The peak volumes are the three-dimensional counterparts of the 3-dimensional dose response surface area and are quantitative measures of synergy or antagonism. For these studies, synergy was defined as a drug combination that produced a synergy number greater than 50. Mild synergistic activity and highly synergistic activity were operationally defined as producing synergy numbers of 50-100 and >100, respectively. Additive drug interactions have synergy numbers in the range of -50 to 50, while those with synergy numbers of -50 to -100 were considered mildly antagonistic and those <-100 were considered highly antagonistic.

[0716] Results: Formula 4-A showed synergistic anti-viral activity when combined with tenofovir in dual drug combination anti-HIV studies against HIV-1 NL4-3 virus in MT4 cells (Table 3).

[0724] Plasma exposures in beagle dogs following oral administration of prodrug

[0725] Pharmacokinetics of EFdA and prodrug formula 4-A were studied in dogs following oral administration of 5 mg-equivalent / kg EFdA dose.

[0726] Formulation: Prodrug was formulated as a 1.65 mg / mL solution in 20% PEG400 in water within 0.5 hours prior to dosing.

[0727] ​​Dose administration and sample collection: The life stages of this study were conducted at Charles River Laboratory (CRL) in Worcester, MA in accordance with CRL Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) standard animal procedures and in compliance with IACUC guidelines of the Animal Welfare Act, Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, and were approved by the IACUA committee. Male beagle dogs (10+ / -2 kg) that were fasted were used for the study. Each drug was administered as a single dose by oral gavage (5 ml / kg). The prodrug Formula 4-A dose (8.25 mg / kg) was an equivalent dose to 5 mg / kg EFdA. Plasma samples were collected at 0 (pre-dose), 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. Blood (approximately 0.1 to 0.2 mL) was immediately processed into plasma by centrifugation at 3,500 rpm for 10 minutes at 5°C immediately after collection. Plasma samples were frozen and kept at -70°C until analysis. To stabilize the prodrug at the time of sample collection and subsequent analysis, the following stabilization reagents were added to the blood collection K2EDTA tubes on wet ice prior to sample collection: for every 100 mL of blood, 15 mL of a pre-made inhibitor cocktail consisting of: 1 mM DFP, 100 mM chlorpyrifos, 100 mM 2-hydroxyquinoline, 100 mM PCMB, 1 mM paraoxon, 100 mM PMSF, 100 mM NaF, 30.0 mM EDTA, and 15 mM citric acid, 10 mL of 0.2 M isorile, and 10 mL of 0.2 M BNPP solution.

[0728] Determination of EFdA and prodrugs in plasma: Briefly, plasma (20 μΐ) was mixed with 100 μΐ of acetonitrile to precipitate proteins. In line with the sample collection procedure, the same cocktail regimen was also added to stabilize the prodrugs in the standard samples and QC samples.

[0729] Bioanalysis: Quantitative analysis of plasma samples was performed using a Sciex API-6500 heavy quadrupole mass spectrometer coupled with a Shimadzu HPLC system (Framingham, MA 01701). The column was a Waters HSS T3 column (2.1 x 50 mm, 1.8 mm). The mobile phase used was: A, 5% acetonitrile in 2 mM ammonium formate buffer; B, 95% acetonitrile in 2 mM ammonium formate buffer (pH 6.0). The flow rate was 0.6 mL / min and the total run time was 3.0 minutes. The HPLC gradient started at 98% A / 2% B for 0.20 minutes, then a linear gradient increase to 25% over the next 1.40 minutes; the gradient was then increased to 100% mobile phase B over the next 1.0 minute, then held for an additional 0.2 minutes, then ramped down to 2% mobile phase B over the next 0.2 minutes. Detection of prodrug and EFdA was achieved by using positive ion electrospray mass spectrometry mode with unit resolution mode. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode was used to quantify both prodrug and EFdA, for example, the MRM transition for EFdA was 294.0-153.90 Da, while the transition for prodrug 4-A was 450.0-153.9 Da. Peak areas were integrated by the Sciex program version 1.6.3, where the concentration was determined from the linear regression of the peak area ratio (peak area of EFdA / peak area of the corresponding IS) versus the nominal concentration of the plasma calibration standards, weighted by 1 / x2. Calculations were performed on non-rounded numbers. In summary, The precision and accuracy of the calibration standards and QC samples were determined.

[0730] Pharmacokinetic calculations: Non-compartmental (NCA) analysis of EFdA and prodrug individual plasma concentration-time data was performed using the WinNonlin module in the Phoenix PK / PD platform (version 8.3.0.5005, Certara Inc., Princeton, NJ 08540). Calculations were performed prior to rounding, and nominal sampling times were used in the pharmacokinetic analysis. Exposure was expressed as the area under the concentration curve from 0 hours to 24 hours (AUC 0-24h ) in plasma. AUC values were calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule.

[0731] Plasma Concentrations: The results of the PK study are given in Tables 3 and 4. These data demonstrate in vivo that prodrug Formula 4-A can be readily delivered orally and can release EFdA in vivo effectively with minimal prodrug detected in the systemic circulation. For example, EFdA released in vivo from prodrug Formula 4-A can be significantly more than EFdA released in vivo from an equivalent dose of EFdA, i.e., 91%, 102%, 55%, 79%, and 200% more at the 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hour time points, respectively (see Table 4). Further, prodrug Formula 4-A can produce higher AUC and Cmaxvalues than an equivalent dose of EFdA. max (see Table 4).

[0740] The pharmacokinetics of EFdA and prodrug Formula 4-A and ledipasvir were investigated in rats following IV infusion administration alone or in combination at a dose of 1.0 mg / kg each.

[0741] Formulation: The prodrugs and ledipasvir were formulated separately as 1.0 mg / mL solutions in 20% PEG 400, 10% Solutol aqueous solution, either alone or in combination, within 0.5 hours prior to dosing.

[0742] Dose administration and sample collection: The life stages of this study were conducted at WuXi Biologics (Wuxi), Shanghai, China, in accordance with the WuXi Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) standard animal procedures and in compliance with the IACUC guidelines of the Animal Welfare Act, Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, and were approved by the IACUA committee. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (0.262 + / - 0.019 kg) were used for the study. Each drug was administered as a single dose by a 30-min IV infusion (1 ml / kg) either alone or in combination. Plasma samples were collected at 0 (pre-dose), 5, 10, 15, and 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 7 h, 12 h, and 24 h post-dose. Blood (approximately 0.1 mL) was immediately processed to plasma by centrifugation at 3,200 g for 10 min at 4 °C within half an hour of collection. Plasma samples were frozen and kept at -70 °C until analysis. To stabilize the prodrugs at the time of sample collection and subsequent analysis, the following stabilization reagents were added to the blood collection K2EDTA tubes on wet ice prior to sample collection: for every 100 mL of blood, 10 mL of pre-made inhibitor cocktail consisting of 600 mM citric acid, 400 mM PMSF, 400 mM NaF, and 400 mM Dichlorvos.

[0743] Determination of EFdA and prodrugs in plasma: Briefly, plasma (20 μΐ) was mixed with 100 μΐ of acetonitrile to precipitate proteins. In line with the sample collection procedure, the same cocktail regimen was also added to stabilize the prodrugs in the standard samples and QC samples.

[0744] Bioanalysis: Sciex API-6500 Plus triple quadrupole mass spectrometer and Waters Acquity UPLC system (Framingham, MA 01701) were combined for quantitative analysis of plasma samples. The column was a Waters HSS T3 column (2.1 x 50 mm, 1.8 micron). The mobile phase used was: A, water with 0.1% formic acid; B, acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid. For analysis of EFdA and prodrugs in plasma, the flow rate was 0.6 mL / min and the total run time was 2.0 minutes. The HPLC gradient started at 100% A for 0.30 minutes, followed by a linear gradient increase to 40% B over the next 0.7 minutes; the gradient was then increased to 100% mobile phase B over the next 0.7 minutes, and then held for another 0.2 minutes before ramping down to 100% mobile phase A over the next 0.1 minutes. Detection of prodrugs and EFdA was achieved using positive ion electrospray mass spectrometry mode with unit resolution mode. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode was used to quantify both prodrugs and EFdA, for example, the MRM transition for EFdA was 294.0-154.2 Da, while the transition for prodrug 4-A was 449.3-164.9 Da. For analysis of ledipasvir in plasma, the flow rate was 0.7 mL / min and the total run time was 1.5 minutes. The HPLC gradient started at 95% A / 5% B for 0.50 minutes, followed by a linear gradient increase to 10% B over the next 0.2 minutes; the gradient was then maintained at 100% mobile phase B over the next 0.7 minutes, before ramping down to 95% mobile phase A over the next 0.1 minutes. Detection of ledipasvir was achieved using positive ion electrospray mass spectrometry mode with unit resolution mode. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode was used to quantify ledipasvir, for example, the MRM transition for ledipasvir was 968.1-869.4 Da. Peak areas were integrated by the Sciex program Version 1.6.3, where the concentration was determined from the peak area ratio (peak area of EFdA / peak area of corresponding IS) versus the nominal concentration of the plasma calibration standards with a weighted (1 / x2) linear regression. Calculations were performed on non-rounded numbers. In summary, The precision and accuracy of the calibration standards and QC samples were determined.
