Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion of Gedatolisib in Healthy Male Volunteers After a Single Intravenous Infusion

Abstract

In this open-label study (NCT02142920), we investigated the distribution, pharmacokinetics, and metabolism of the pan-class-I isoform phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor gedatolisib (PF-05212384), following a single intravenous administration in healthy male subjects. A single, 89-mg, intravenous dose of gedatolisib was associated with a favorable safety profile in the 6 healthy subjects evaluated. Peak plasma concentrations for unchanged gedatolisib and total radioactivity were observed at the end of the 30-minute infusion. The only observed drug-related material in plasma was the parent drug, gedatolisib. Terminal half-life for plasma gedatolisib was ∼37 hours. Following the dose, 66%–73% of drug-related material was recovered in the feces. Metabolism of gedatolisib was trace; only 1 oxidative metabolite, M5, was identified in feces (<1% of total dose). Identification of gedatolisib in feces suggests that biliary and/or intestinal secretion of unchanged parent drug significantly contributes to gedatolisib clearance.
