Henatinib is a novel oral small-molecule multikinase inhibitor that has demonstrated broad and potent antitumor activities in preclinical studies. In support of a clinical pharmacokinetic study, a simple, sensitive and rapid liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the quantification of henatinib in human plasma and urine. The sample preparation procedure involved a simple protein precipitation with methanol and the addition of midazolam as the internal standard. The chromatographic separation was achieved on an XBridge C18 column (50mm×2.1mm, 2.5μm) using a mixture of 5mM ammonium formate (pH 9.5)-acetonitrile-methanol (60:30:10, v/v/v) as the mobile phase. The MS/MS detection was performed in the positive ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode by monitoring the precursor→product ion transitions at m/z 469.1→382.2 for henatinib and m/z 326.2→291.3 for the internal standard. Assays were validated over the concentration range of 0.100-400ng/mL and 1.00-2500ng/mL for plasma and urine, respectively. The established method was highly sensitive with the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.100ng/mL and 1.00ng/mL for plasma and urine, respectively. The intra- and inter-day precisions were <8.6% and <9.2% for plasma and urine, respectively. The mean assay accuracy was within ±6.8% of nominal values for both plasma and urine. The analytical runtime within 3.5min per sample made this method suitable for high-throughput determination. The validated method was successfully applied to a phase I dose escalation pharmacokinetic study in Chinese cancer patients.

The Ca(2+)/voltage-gated K(+) large conductance (BK) channel β1 subunit is particularly abundant in vascular smooth muscle. By determining their phenotype, BK β1 allows the BK channels to reduce myogenic tone, facilitating vasodilation. The endogenous steroid lithocholic acid (LCA) dilates cerebral arteries via BK channel activation, which requires recognition by a BK β1 site that includes Thr169. Whether exogenous nonsteroidal agents can access this site to selectively activate β1-containing BK channels and evoke vasodilation remain unknown. We performed a chemical structure database similarity search using LCA as a template, along with a two-step reaction to generate sodium 3-hydroxyolean-12-en-30-oate (HENA). HENA activated the BK (cbv1 + β1) channels cloned from rat cerebral artery myocytes with a potency (EC₅₀ = 53 μM) similar to and an efficacy (×2.5 potentiation) significantly greater than that of LCA. This HENA action was replicated on native channels in rat cerebral artery myocytes. HENA failed to activate the channels made of cbv1 + β2, β3, β4, or β1T169A, indicating that this drug selectively targets β1-containing BK channels via the BK β1 steroid-sensing site. HENA (3-45 μM) dilated the rat and C57BL/6 mouse pressurized cerebral arteries. Consistent with the electrophysiologic results, this effect was larger than that of LCA. HENA failed to dilate the arteries from the KCNMB1 knockout mouse, underscoring BK β1's role in HENA action. Finally, carotid artery-infusion of HENA (45 μM) dilated the pial cerebral arterioles via selective BK-channel targeting. In conclusion, we have identified for the first time a nonsteroidal agent that selectively activates β1-containing BK channels by targeting the steroid-sensing site in BK β1, rendering vasodilation.

AbstractHenatinib maleate (R,Z)‐2‐[(5‐fluoro‐1,2‐dihydro‐2‐oxo‐3H‐indol‐3‐ylidene) methyl]‐5‐(2‐hydroxy‐3‐morpholinopropyl)‐3‐methyl‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐1H‐pyrrolo[3,2‐c] azepin‐4‐ketone maleate is a potent inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors, and is currently under preclinical evaluation as an anticancer drug. A novel method for the quantification of henatinib maleate in rat plasma using high performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry has been developed. The analyte (henatinib maleate) and internal standard (papaverine hydrochloride) were extracted from 50 μL of rat plasma by protein precipitation and separated on a C18 column using a mixture of 25 mm ammonium acetate buffer : methanol : acetonitrile (35 : 50 : 15, v/v/v) as mobile phase with a run time of 4.5 min. The detection was performed by means of triple quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an ESI interface operating in the multiple‐reaction monitoring mode. A linear response was observed over the concentration range 5.0–1000 ng/mL. The limit of quantification was 5.0 ng/mL. Both intra‐ and inter‐day precision, defined as relative standard deviation, were within 9.7%. Accuracy, defined as relative error, was within ± 3.1%. The developed method was successfully applied to preclinical pharmacokinetic studies of henatinib maleate in rat after a single oral administration of the drug.
