Deferasirox

Synonyms: CGP-72670, ICL-670

Deferasirox is an iron chelator, also a cytochrome P450 3A4 inducer, Cytochrome P450 2C8 inhibitor, and Cytochrome P450 1A2 inhibitor. Deferasirox-induced iron depletion promotes BclxL downregulation and cell death.

Biological Activity

Description Deferasirox is an iron chelator, also a cytochrome P450 3A4 inducer, Cytochrome P450 2C8 inhibitor, and Cytochrome P450 1A2 inhibitor. Deferasirox-induced iron depletion promotes BclxL downregulation and cell death.

Deferasirox effectively chelates iron from Rhizopus oryzae and demonstrates cidal activity in vitro against 28 of 29 clinical isolates of Mucorales at concentrations well below clinically achievable serum levels. [1] Deferasirox incubation induces a significant inhibition of NF-κB activity and a cytoplasmic sequestration of its active subunit p65 in an inactive form in 28 of 40 peripheral blood samples. [2] Deferasirox inhibits three human myeloid cell lines (K562, U937, and HL60) with IC50 of 17-50 mM. [3] Deferasirox is cidal in vitro against A. fumigatus, with an MIC and MFC of 25 and 50 mg/L, respectively. [5]

Deferasirox significantly improves survival and decreased tissue fungal burden in diabetic ketoacidotic or neutropenic mice with mucormycosis, with an efficacy similar to that of liposomal amphotericin B. Deferasirox treatment also enhances the host inflammatory response to mucormycosis. Deferasirox synergistically improves survival and reduces tissue fungal burden when combined with liposomal amphotericin B. [1] Deferasirox administered p.o. to rats is absorbed to at least 75%, and the bioavailability is 26%.Deferasirox is present in the blood circulation mainly in the unchanged form and as its iron complex, Fe(deferasirox)2, after intravenous and p.o. administration. Deferasirox is 99.2% bound to plasma proteins. [4] Deferasirox monotherapy modestly prolongs survival of mice with IPA. [5]

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
