Ezatiostat (TLK199) [γ-glutamyl-S-(benzyl)cysteinyl-R-phenyl glycine diethyl ester] is an inhibitor of Glutathione S-transferase P1–1 (GSTπ). The drug is a peptidomimetic of GSH (glutathione), esterified to enhance cellular uptake and designed to bind to the “G-site” of GSTP1–1. Independent of catalysis inhibition, TLK199 also disrupts the protein:protein interaction site(s) between GSTP1–1 and JNK1. Telik Inc was developing TLK-199 for the potential prevention of myelosuppression in blood diseases, namely myelodysplastic syndrome.

Sample Use Guides

Phase 1 testing of ezatiostat, a glutathione S-transferase P1-1 inhibitor, for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome was conducted in a multidose-escalation study. Patients received 10 dose levels (200, 400, 1000, 1400, 2000, 2400, 3000, 4000, 5000, and 6000 mg) of ezatiostat tablets in divided doses on days 1 to 7 of a 21-day cycle for a maximum of 8 cycles. Ezatiostat hydrochloride liposomes for injection, a glutathione S-transferase P1-1 inhibitor, was evaluated in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The objectives were to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics, and hematologic improvement (HI) rate. Phase 1-2a testing of ezatiostat for the treatment of MDS was conducted in a multidose-escalation, multicenter study. Phase 1 patients received ezatiostat at 5 dose levels (50, 100, 200, 400 and 600 mg/m2) intravenously (IV) on days 1 to 5 of a 14-day cycle until MDS progression or unacceptable toxicity. In phase 2, ezatiostat was administered on 2 dose schedules: 600 mg/m2 IV on days 1 to 5 or days 1 to 3 of a 21-day treatment cycle.
Route of Administration: Other
Wild type HL60 cells were induced to undergo apoptosis by 8- and 24-h treatments with 10 and 50 uM ezatiostat (TLK199). Additive apoptotic effects were seen when HL60 cells were co-treated with 50 uM TLK199 and UV.
