Voxelotor (GBT440) is a haemoglobin S polymerization inhibitor used to treat anaemia in sickle cell disease. Due to an increase of arterial oxygen saturation as well as serum erythropoietin and haemoglobin, the World Anti-Doping Agency included voxelotor in the list of prohibited substances and methods in 2023. The objective of the present study was to identify and characterize metabolites of voxelotor to detect a potential misuse by athletes. The biotransformation was studied in vitro using the human hepatocellular cell line HepG2 and pooled human liver microsomes. The metabolites were analysed using high-performance liquid chromatography (high-resolution) mass spectrometry. In total, three phase I metabolites and six phase II metabolites (resulting from glucuro-conjugation and O-methylation) were formed by the HepG2 cells in a time-dependent manner, and two phase I metabolites were generated by the liver microsomes, among them one also found in the HepG2 incubations. A reduced metabolite and the glucuro-conjugate of a reduced metabolite were the most abundant formed by HepG2 cells. In addition, metabolites resulting from mono-hydroxylation, reduction and O-methylation in different combinations were identified. Voxelotor was also found as glucuro-conjugate with a low abundance. With the spectrometric behaviour of voxelotor and its in vitro metabolites described herein, an implementation in doping control screening and, consequently, a detection of an abuse in an athlete urine sample might be possible.
