borestrant (ZB716)

It is evident that traditional endocrine treatments play a pivotal role in the management of HR+ BC. However, the emergence of resistance necessitates the development of novel therapeutic strategies. These strategies should be based on pharmacokinetics, further investigation of the molecular signaling pathways of BC, such as new SERMs, SERDs, PROTACs, as well as new drug groups, like SERCAs, CERANs, SHERPAs. Combination therapy represents the most promising avenue for BC treatment. While PROTAC combination with new monotherapeutic agents for BC treatment has yet to be investigated, we believe that such combinations have the potential to make the treatment more selective, effective, and personalised in the future.

This procedure is very practicable and gives the final compound in good yield (19% total yield) and high purity (D, >99%, chemical purity 98%). At present, ZB716-d6 has been successfully used as an internal standard in clinical bioanalysis.

In human liver microsomes, ZB716 demonstrated relatively low inhibition of CYP1A2, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4 (when testosterone was used as the substrate), and no inhibition of CYP2B6 and 3A4 (when midazolam was used as the substrate). In assays for enzyme activity, ZB716 induced CYP1A2, 2B6, and 3A4 in a concentration-dependent manner. Single-dose and repeated-dose pharmacokinetic studies in rats and dogs showed oral bioavailability, dose-proportional drug exposure, and drug accumulation as measured by maximum concentration and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC).
