Product Description

Q203 is an imidazopyridine amide (IAP) compound that block Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth by targeting the respiratory cytochrome bc1 complex. It has the potential for the treatment of tuberculosis. Q203 inhibited the growth of MDR and XDR M. tuberculosis clinical isolates in culture broth medium in the low nanomolar range and was efficacious in a mouse model of tuberculosis at a dose less than 1 mg per kg body weight, which highlights the potency of Q203. Q203 is active against the reference strain Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv with MIC50s of 2.7 nM in culture broth medium and 0.28 nM inside macrophages. In addition, Q203 displays pharmacokinetic and safety profiles compatible with once-daily dosing. Together, these data indicate that Q203 is a promising new clinical candidate for the treatment of tuberculosis.

ln Vivo
Q203 displays pharmacokinetic and safety profiles compatible with once-daily dosing. Q203 has a bioavailability of 90% and a terminal half-life of 23.4 h. The volume of distribution is moderate (5.27 l per kg body weight), and the systemic clearance is low (4.03 mL/min per kg). After 4 weeks of treatment, reductions of 90%, 99% and 99.9% in M. tuberculosis H37Rv bacterial load is observed in the groups treated with Q203 at 0.4, 2 and 10 mg per kg body weight, respectively

Animal Protocol
Rats: Sprague Dawley rats are used for pharmacokinetic studies. Compounds (Q203) are given at a dose of 2 mg per kg body weight intravenously or 10 mg per kg body weight orally. The compounds (Q203) are formulated in 20% TPGS (d-α tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate) for repeated-dose studies and in 40% PEG400, pH4 for single-dose studies. Blood samples are taken through the caudal vena cava using 1-mL syringes before perfusion. Samples are collected from three mice or rats at 0.5, 1, 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h post-dose. Blood samples are centrifuged at 3,200g for 10 min at 4 °C. Following centrifugation, plasma is collected and frozen until further analysis. Compound concentrations are determined by LC-MS;


Mice: Efficacy of Q203 in a mouse model of established tuberculosis is studied. Bacterial loads are enumerated in the lung of infected mice after 14 d and 28 d of treatment. Q203 is used at 0.4, 2 and 10 mg per kg body weight. Bedaquiline and isoniazid (INH) are used as positive controls at 6.5 and 15 mg per kg body weight, respectively. Five mice per group and per time point are used.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: ~20 mg/mL ( 35.9 mM)
Water: ~20 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2 mg/mL (3.59 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2:

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 1.7953 mL 8.9765 mL 17.9530 mL
5 mM 0.3591 mL 1.7953 mL 3.5906 mL
10 mM 0.1795 mL 0.8977 mL 1.7953 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
