On the Stability and Degradation Pathways of Venetoclax under Stress Conditions.

ABSTRACT: Venetoclax is an orally bioavailable, B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) selective inhibitor, used for the treatment of various types of blood cancers, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). In this study we investigated the degradation of venetoclax under various stress conditions including acidic, basic, oxidative, photolytic and thermolytic conditions. We isolated and identified six of its main degradation products produced in forced degradation studies. The structures of the isolated degradation products were determined by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Additionally, one oxidation degradation product was identified with comparison to a commercially obtained ve
