Abstract:
A novel approach to synthesize chitosan-O-isopropyl-5'-O-d4T monophosphate conjugate was developed. Chitosan-d4T monophosphate prodrug with a phosphoramidate linkage was efficiently synthesized through Atherton-Todd reaction. In vitro drug release studies in pH 1.1 and 7.4 indicated that chitosan-O-isopropyl-5'-O-d4T monophosphate conjugate prefers to release the d4T 5'-(O-isopropyl) monophosphate than free d4T for a prolonged period. The results suggested that chitosan-O-isopropyl-5'-O-d4T monophosphate conjugate may be used as a sustained polymeric prodrug for improving therapy efficacy and reducing side effects in antiretroviral treatment.
