Description of Tipiracil hydrochloride

Tipiracil is an inhibitor of Thymidine phosphorylase (TP).

Thymidine phosphorylase (TP)is a key enzyme in the pyrimidine nucleoside salvage pathway. It catalyses the reversible phosphorylation of thymidine, and thereby generate thymine and 2-deoxy-D-ribose-1-phosphate.

Tipiracil (TPI) and trifluridine (FTD) are active components of TAS-102 at a molecular ratio of 1:0.5, which is a novel oral nucleoside antitumor agent in clinical trials. Oral administered TPI and FTD co-treatment may differ from that of i.v. administration of FTD alone. [1] When FTD is administered orally, it is rapidly degraded to its inactive form in the intestines and the liver (first-pass effect) [2], but the combination with TPI helps to maintain adequate FTD plasma concentrations [3]. TPI thus, potentiates the antitumor activity of FTD, and the optimal molecular ratio of FTD to TPI has been proven to be 1:0.5. [3]

Protocol of Tipiracil hydrochloride

Animal experiment [1]:

Animal models

Xenograft-bearing nude mouse models of colorectal and gastric cancers

Dosage form

150 mg/kg/day (combination of Trifluridine and Tipiracil Hydrochloride); p.o.; b.i.d., for 14 days

Applications

The tumor growth-inhibitory activity and RTV5 in mice administered TAS-102 (consisting of Trifluridine and Tipiracil Hydrochloride) with Oxaliplatin were significantly superior to those associated with either monotherapy in mice with colorectal (HCT 116 and SW-48 cells) and gastric (SC-2 and MKN74 cells) cancers. In vivo, TAS-102 alone was effective in MKN74/5FU cells, and its anti-tumor activity was substantially enhanced in combination with Oxaliplatin. No significant decrease in body weight or toxicity was observed compared to either monotherapy.

Other notes

Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.

Working concentration: mg/ml;

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.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
