RESUMO
We report herein the discovery of exceptionally potent and orally bioavailable PROTAC AR degraders with ARD-2585 being the most promising compound. ARD-2585 achieves DC50 values of ≤0.1 nM in the VCaP cell line with AR gene amplification and in the LNCaP cell line carrying an AR mutation. It potently inhibits cell growth with IC50 values of 1.5 and 16.2 nM in the VCaP and LNCaP cell lines, respectively, and achieves excellent pharmacokinetics and 51% of oral bioavailability in mice. It is more efficacious than enzalutamide in inhibition of VCaP tumor growth and does not cause any sign of toxicity in mice. ARD-2585 is a promising AR degrader for extensive investigations for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.

PURPOSE: A fixed-dose combination (FDC) of gemigliptin/rosuvastatin 50/20 mg as a monolayer tablet has been used to treat patients with both type 2 diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia. To improve the stability of the FDC, a new FDC formulation as a bilayer tablet was developed. This study aimed to compare the pharmacokinetics (PKs) and pharmacodynamics (PDs) of the FDC of gemigliptin/rosuvastatin 50/20 mg between the newly developed bilayer tablet and the approved monolayer tablet in healthy subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized, open-label, single-dose, two-treatment, two-way crossover study was conducted. Subjects received a single dose of the FDC of gemigliptin/rosuvastatin 50/20 mg as the bilayer tablet or the monolayer tablet in each period with a 7-day washout. For PK and PD analyses, serial blood samples were collected up to 72 hours after dosing to determine plasma concentrations of gemigliptin, its active metabolite LC15-0636 and rosuvastatin, and plasma dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) activity. PK and PD parameters were calculated using non-compartmental methods and compared between the two formulations. RESULTS: A total of 48 healthy subjects were randomized, and 45 subjects completed the study. The concentration-time profiles of gemigliptin, LC15-0636 and rosuvastatin were comparable between the two formulations. All geometric mean ratios (90% confidence intervals) of the bilayer tablet to the monolayer tablet for maximum plasma concentration and area under concentration-time curve from 0 to last measurable time point of the three compounds fulfilled the bioequivalence criteria of 0.80-1.25. Likewise, area under plasma DPP-4 activity inhibition from baseline-time curve from 0 to last measurable time point and maximum inhibition of plasma DPP-4 activity were similar between the two formulations. CONCLUSION: The FDC of gemigliptin/rosuvastatin 50/20 mg as the bilayer tablet showed equivalent PK and PD properties with the FDC of gemigliptin/rosuvastatin 50/20 mg as the monolayer tablet in healthy subjects. These results suggest that the newly developed bilayer tablet can become an alternative formulation to the commercially available monolayer tablet.

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) treated with chemoimmunotherapy has limited efficacy in some patients, resulting in relapsed or refractory disease. Avadomide (CC-122) is a novel cereblon-binding agent that exhibits antilymphoma and immune-modulation activities with a biological profile distinct from similar agents, such as lenalidomide. This phase I multicenter study evaluated avadomide in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors or NHL. Fourteen patients with NHL and one with a solid tumor (esophageal carcinoma), were enrolled in four dose-escalation cohorts using a 3 + 3 design. Primary endpoints included safety, dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), maximum-tolerated dose and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D), and pharmacokinetics. Secondary endpoints included overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response. One patient with NHL experienced DLT, which included face edema, pharyngeal edema, and tumor flare (all grade 1) that led to a dose reduction. Eleven patients had grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events, most frequently decreased neutrophil count (33%) and decreased lymphocyte count (20%). The ORR in patients with NHL (n = 13) was 54%, including four complete and three partial responses. The best response for the solid tumor patient was progressive disease. Avadomide dose intensity was consistent across cohorts, and the 3-mg dose given five consecutive days/week was established as the RP2D. This phase I study identified a tolerable dose of avadomide, with an acceptable toxicity profile and clinically meaningful efficacy in Japanese patients with previously treated NHL.

Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety/tolerability of iberdomide (CC-220), a highly potent oral cereblon E3 ligase modulator (CELMoD), were evaluated in escalating single-dose (0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 2, 4, 6 mg) and multiple-dose (0.3 mg once daily for 14 days, 1 mg once daily for 28 days, 0.3 mg once daily for 28 days, or 1 mg once daily for 7 days with a 7-day washout, then once daily for 7 more days) studies in healthy subjects (n = 99). Iberdomide exposure increased in a dose-proportional manner. Terminal half-life was 9-13 hours after a single dose. Iberdomide decreased peripheral CD19+ B lymphocytes (Emax , 92.4%; EC50 , 0.718 ng/mL), with modest reductions in CD3+ T lymphocytes (Emax , 34.8%; EC50 , 0.932 ng/mL). Lipopolysaccharide-stimulated proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1α, IL-1ß) were reduced, but anti-CD3-stimulated IL-2 and interferon-γ were increased. Iberdomide 1 mg once daily partially decreased T-cell-independent antibody responses to PPV23 but did not change tetanus toxoid recall response. Pharmacodynamic data suggest dose-dependent, differential immunomodulatory effects on B and T lymphocytes. Iberdomide was tolerated up to 6 mg as a single dose and at 0.3 mg once daily for 4 weeks. Grade 3 asymptomatic neutropenia was observed following 1 mg once daily for 21 days; a 7-day drug holiday alleviated neutropenia. Further investigation of iberdomide in autoimmune and hematological diseases is warranted.

BACKGROUND: Avadomide (CC-122) is a novel oral cereblon-modulating agent with promising activity in non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We aimed to examine the safety and preliminary activity of avadomide plus obinutuzumab in patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma. METHODS: CC-122-NHL-001 was a phase 1b dose escalation and expansion study at eight sites in France, Italy, and the Netherlands. Eligible patients (aged ≥18 years) had histologically confirmed CD20-positive relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1, and had received previous treatment. In the dose expansion phase, only patients with previously treated relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (grade 1, 2, or 3a) were included. Avadomide was administered in escalating doses and two formulations: active pharmaceutical ingredient in capsule in 1·0 mg, 2·0 mg, 3·0 mg, and 4·0 mg doses and as formulated capsules in 3·0 mg and 4·0 mg doses orally once daily on days 1-5 followed by 2 days off (5-7-day schedule) every week of each 28-day cycle. Obinutuzumab 1000 mg was administered intravenously on days 2, 8, and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of cycles 2-8. Primary objectives were to determine the safety and tolerability, the non-tolerated dose, maximum tolerated dose, and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). All patients who received treatment were included in the safety analyses. Efficacy-evaluable patients completed at least one cycle of treatment and had baseline and at least one post-baseline assessment. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02417285 and EudraCT 2014-003333-26, and is ongoing. FINDINGS: Between June 24, 2015, and Dec 5, 2018, 73 patients were enrolled and treated; 19 had diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, 53 follicular lymphoma, and one marginal zone lymphoma. Median follow-up was 253 days (IQR 127-448). The median number of previous anticancer regimens was three (IQR 2-4). The maximum tolerated dose and non-tolerated dose were not reached in the dose escalation phase. On the basis of safety and pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic data, the avadomide RP2D was established as 3·0 mg as formulated capsules on a 5-7-day schedule in combination with 1000 mg of obinutuzumab. Patients enrolled in the expansion cohort received the established RP2D of avadomide. Across all doses, three patients had dose-limiting toxicities; one patient treated at the RP2D had dose-limiting toxicity (grade 3 sepsis). The most common adverse events of grade 3 and above were neutropenia (41 [56%] of 73) and thrombocytopenia (17 [23%] of 73). 34 (47%) patients had serious adverse events, which were considered to be avadomide-related in 23 (32%) of 73 patients and obinutuzumab-related in 20 (27%) of 73 patients. Two treatment-related deaths occurred, one owing to tumour flare and one from acute myeloid leukaemia after study discontinuation. INTERPRETATION: Avadomide plus obinutuzumab has a manageable toxicity, being a tolerable treatment option for most patients. Although the prespecified threshold for activity was not met in the trial, we believe that the preliminary antitumour activity of cereblon modulators plus next-generation anti-CD20 antibodies in heavily pretreated relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma warrants further investigation as a chemotherapy-free option in this setting.

CC-122 (Avadomide) is a nonphthalimide analogue of thalidomide that has multiple pharmacological activities including immune modulation of several immune cell subsets, antigrowth activity, antiproliferative activity, and antiangiogenic activity. CC-122 as monotherapy and in combination with other agents is being evaluated for multiple indications including hematologic malignancies and advanced solid tumors. Given that renal clearance is one of the major routes of elimination for CC-122 and its clearance/exposure could be affected by renal impairment, a total of 50 subjects with various degrees of renal function were enrolled in an open-label, single-dose study to evaluate the impact of renal impairment on CC-122 pharmacokinetic disposition. The study showed that following administration of a single oral dose of 3 mg CC-122, renal impairment reduced both the apparent total plasma clearance and renal clearance of CC-122, but it had less impact on CC-122 absorption, as demonstrated by similar Tmax and Cmax among groups with various degrees of renal function. Compared with exposure in subjects with normal renal function, total plasma exposure to CC-122 increased by â¼20%, â¼50%, and â¼120% in subjects with mild, moderate, and severe renal insufficiency, respectively. Results from this study combined with modeling/simulation suggest that dose adjustments are necessary in patients with moderate or severe but not with mild renal impairment. Finally, a single dose of 3 mg CC-122 was safe and well tolerated by healthy subjects and subjects with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment.

Treatment options for relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are limited, with no standard of care; prognosis is poor, with 4- to 6-month median survival. Avadomide (CC-122) is a cereblon-modulating agent with immunomodulatory and direct antitumor activities. This phase 1 dose-expansion study assessed safety and clinical activity of avadomide monotherapy in patients with de novo R/R DLBCL and transformed lymphoma. Additionally, a novel gene expression classifier, which identifies tumors with a high immune cell infiltration, was shown to enrich for response to avadomide in R/R DLBCL. Ninety-seven patients with R/R DLBCL, including 12 patients with transformed lymphoma, received 3 to 5 mg avadomide administered on continuous or intermittent schedules until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal. Eighty-two patients (85%) experienced ≥1 grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs), most commonly neutropenia (51%), infections (24%), anemia (12%), and febrile neutropenia (10%). Discontinuations because of AEs occurred in 10% of patients. Introduction of an intermittent 5/7-day schedule improved tolerability and reduced frequency and severity of neutropenia, febrile neutropenia, and infections. Among 84 patients with de novo R/R DLBCL, overall response rate (ORR) was 29%, including 11% complete response (CR). Responses were cell-of-origin independent. Classifier-positive DLBCL patients (de novo) had an ORR of 44%, median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 6 months, and 16% CR vs an ORR of 19%, mPFS of 1.5 months, and 5% CR in classifier-negative patients (P = .0096). Avadomide is being evaluated in combination with other antilymphoma agents. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01421524.

Avadomide (CC-122) is a novel immunomodulatory drug that binds to cereblon, a member of the Cullin 4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Avadomide has multiple pharmacologic activities including potent immune modulation, antiangiogenic, antitumor, and antiproliferative activity and is being evaluated as an oncology treatment for hematologic malignancies and advanced solid tumors. In vitro study has indicated that cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A and CYP1A2 appear to be the major enzymes involved in the oxidative metabolism of avadomide. The effects of CYP3A inhibition/induction and CYP1A2 inhibition on the pharmacokinetics of avadomide in healthy adult subjects were assessed in 3 parts of an open-label, nonrandomized, 2-period, single-sequence crossover study. Following a single oral dose of 3 mg, avadomide exposure when coadministered with the CYP1A2 inhibitor fluvoxamine was 154.81% and 107.59% of that when administered alone, for area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf ) and maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax ), respectively. Avadomide exposures, when coadministered with the CYP3A inhibitor itraconazole, were 100.0% and 93.64% of that when administered alone, for AUC0-inf and Cmax , respectively. Avadomide exposures when coadministered with the CYP3A inducer rifampin were 62.83% and 88.17% of that when administered alone, for AUC0-inf and Cmax , respectively. Avadomide was well tolerated when administered as a single oral dose of 3 mg alone or coadministered with fluvoxamine, itraconazole, or rifampin. These results should serve as the basis for avadomide dose recommendations when it is coadministered with strong CYP3A and CYP1A2 inhibitors and with rifampin.

BACKGROUND: Metformin and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-IV) inhibitors are commonly combined to treat patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). A new fixed-dose combination (FDC) drug containing gemigliptin, a DPP-IV inhibitor, and sustained-release metformin has been developed. This study aimed to compare the PKs and tolerability of FDC versus loose combination of gemigliptin 50 mg and metformin 500 mg. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized, open-label, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence, crossover study was conducted in 28 healthy subjects, who received a single oral dose of an FDC tablet of gemigliptin (50 mg) and sustained-release metformin (500 mg) or were coadministered gemigliptin (50 mg) and extended-release metformin (500 mg) with a 1-week washout. Serial blood samples were collected up to 48 hours after study drug administration, and the plasma concentrations of gemigliptin, LC15-0636 (active metabolite of gemigliptin), and metformin were determined using a validated LC-MS/MS method. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived using a noncompartmental method. Safety and tolerability were evaluated based on vital signs, adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, and electrocardiography. RESULTS: The concentration-time profiles of gemigliptin and metformin were similar when they were administered as FDC or were coadministered. The geometric mean ratio (GMR) and its 90% CIs of Cmax for gemigliptin, LC15-0636, and metformin were 0.93 (0.85 - 1.02), 1.00 (0.94 - 1.06), and 1.03 (0.98 - 1.09), respectively. The corresponding values of AUClast were 0.97 (0.93 - 1.01), 1.00 (0.97 - 1.04), and 1.00 (0.95 - 1.05), respectively. There were no clinically meaningful differences in safety and tolerability. CONCLUSION: When comparing the AUClast and Cmax of gemigliptin, LC15-0636, and metformin, the 90% CIs were all within the range of 0.8 - 1.25, which is the commonly accepted range for evaluating bioequivalence.

This study reports the development of a simple and reproducible method, with high rates of recovery, to extract the cytotoxic agent piplartine from skin layers, and a sensitive and rapid UV-HPLC method for its quantification. Considering the potential of piplartine for topical treatment of skin cancer, this method may find application for formulation development and pharmacokinetics studies to assess cutaneous bioavailability. Porcine skin was employed as a model for human tissue. Piplartine was extracted from the stratum corneum (SC) and remaining viable skin layers (VS) using methanol, vortex homogenization and bath sonication, and subsequently assayed by HPLC using a C18 column, and 1:1 (v/v) acetonitrile-water (adjusted to pH 4.0 with acetic acid 0.1%) as mobile phase. The quantification limit of piplartine was 0.2 µg/mL (0.6 µm), and the assay was linear up to 5 µg/mL (15.8 µm), with within-day and between-days assay coefficients of variation and relative errors <15%. Piplartine recovery from SC and VS varied from 86 to 96%. The method was suitable to assay samples from skin penetration studies, enabling detection of differences in cutaneous delivery in different skin compartments resulting from treatment with various formulations and time periods.

PURPOSE: Fixed-dose combination (FDC) of gemigliptin and rosuvastatin may improve medication compliance of patients with comorbid type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. Pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety of gemigliptin/rosuvastatin 50/20 mg FDC was compared with a loose combination of individual tablets in healthy subjects. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A randomized, open-label, single-dose, two-period, two-sequence, two-treatment crossover study was conducted. Subjects received FDC or a loose combination of gemigliptin (50 mg) and rosuvastatin (20 mg) during each period, with a 14-day washout. Serial blood samples were collected up to 72 hrs after dosing to measure plasma concentrations of gemigliptin, its active metabolite LC15-0636, and rosuvastatin for PK assessment, and DPP-4 activity for PD assessment. PK and PD parameters were calculated using a non-compartmental method. Safety profiles were evaluated throughout the study. RESULTS: Thirty-seven subjects completed the study. The concentration-time profiles of gemigliptin, LC15-0636, and rosuvastatin were similar between FDC and loose combination, respectively. For each of the three compounds, the geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) of FDC to loose combination for Cmax and AUClast fell within the bioequivalence range of 0.8-1.25. Inhibition of DPP-4 activity-time profiles after administration of FDC and loose combination was overlapping, and Imax and AUEClast were similar. Both FDC and the loose combination were well tolerated. CONCLUSION: PK, PD, and safety profiles of gemigliptin, its metabolite, and rosuvastatin were similar between FDC and loose combination. The FDC of gemigliptin (50 mg) and rosuvastatin (20 mg) can be used as an alternative to a loose combination, which is expected to improve patient compliance.

BACKGROUND: In type 2 diabetes mellitus therapy, fixed-dose combination (FDC) can offer not only benefits in glucose control via the combined use of agents, but also increase patient compliance. The aim of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetic equivalence of the high dose of the FDC tablet (gemigliptin/metformin sustained release [SR] 50/1,000 mg) and a corresponding co-administered dose of individual tablets. METHODS: This study was randomized, open-label, single dose, two treatments, two-period, crossover study, which included 24 healthy subjects. Subjects received the FDC or individual tablets of gemigliptin (50 mg) and metformin XR (1,000 mg) in each period. Geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast) of the FDC tablet and co-administration of individual tablet for both gemigliptin and metformin were calculated. RESULTS: The GMRs (FDC tablets/co-administration; 90% CIs) for Cmax and AUClast of gemigliptin were 1.079 (0.986-1.180) and 1.047 (1.014-1.080), respectively. For metformin, the GMRs for Cmax, and AUClast were 1.038 (0.995-1.083) and 1.041 (0.997-1.088), respectively. The 90% CIs for GMRs of Cmax and AUClast for gemigliptin and metformin fell entirely within bounds of 0.800-1.250. Both administration of FDC tablet and co-administration of individual tablets were well tolerated. CONCLUSION: FDC tablet exhibited pharmacokinetic equivalence and comparable safety and tolerability to co-administration of corresponding doses of gemigliptin and metformin XR as individual tablets.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetic interactions between a newly developed dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitor, gemigliptin, and metformin in healthy Mexican male volunteers, and the differences in the pharmacokinetic profile of gemigliptin between Korean and Mexican healthy volunteers. METHODS: This was a multiple-dose, randomized, open-label, 3-way, 3-period crossover study. Subjects were randomized to 1 of 3 treatment sequences and received gemigliptin 50mg once a day, metformin1000mg BID, or both drugs during a 7-day treatment period, and underwent sampling for pharmacokinetic analysis and tolerability assessments. Point estimates and 90% CIs of Cmax,ss and AUCτ,ss least squares mean (LSM) ratios of the concurrent administration of gemigliptinâ¯+â¯metformin to the administration of monotherapy with either drug were obtained, and the pharmacokinetic profile of gemigliptin observed was compared with that in healthy Korean volunteers studied during the initial development of gemigliptin. FINDINGS: The coadministration of gemigliptinâ¯+â¯metformin did not affect the pharmacokinetic characteristics of gemigliptin (LSM ratio [90% CI] for Cmax,ss and AUCτ,ss: 0.98 [0.87-1.10] and 0.94 [0.91-0.98], respectively) or metformin (LSM ratio [90% CI] for Cmax,ss and AUCτ,ss: 0.97 [0.88-1.08] and 1.02 [0.93-1.12], respectively) when administered as monotherapy and was well tolerated. In contrast with Korean healthy volunteers, Mexican subjects showed a modestly higher gemigliptin exposure (LSM ratio [90% CI] for AUCτ,ss: 1.22 [1.14-1.31]). IMPLICATIONS: The results of this study support, in ethnically different populations, the absence of drug-drug interactions between gemigliptin and metformin previously shown in Korean healthy volunteers. Considering the flat effect-concentration curve and wide therapeutic range of gemigliptin, the pharmacokinetic profile of gemigliptin observed in healthy Mexican and Korean subjects suggests that gemigliptin use in Mexican patients may be associated with outcomes, in terms of efficacy and tolerability, similar to those observed in the Korean population.

Piplartine (1) is an alkamide extracted from plants of the genus Piper which shows several pharmacological properties, including antitumor activity. To improve this activity, a series of analogues based on 1 have been synthesized by esterification and amidation using the 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamic acid-like starting material. During the study, the moieties 3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acrylate and 3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acrylamide were maintained on esters and amides respectively. Meanwhile, functional changes were exploited, and it was revealed that the presence of two aromatic rings in the side-chain was important to improve the cytotoxic activity against the U87MG cell line, such as the compound (E)-benzhydryl 3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acrylate (10), an ester that exhibited strong cytotoxicity and a similar level of potency to that of paclitaxel, a positive control. Compound 10 had a marked concentration-dependent inhibitory effect on the viability of the U87MG cell line with apoptotic and oxidative processes, showing good potential for altering main molecular pathways to prevent tumor development. Moreover, it has strong bioavailability with non-genotoxic and non-cytotoxic properties on human blood cells. In conclusion, the findings of the present study demonstrated that compound 10 is a promising agent that may find applications combatting diseases associated with oxidative stress and as a prototype for the development of novel drugs used in the treatment of glioblastoma.

A10, (3-phenylacetylamino-2,6-piperidinedione), is a natural peptide with broad antineoplastic activity. Recently, in vitro antitumor effect of a new A10 analog [3-(4-methoxybenzoylamino)-2,6-piperidinedione] (MPD) has been verified. However, poor aqueous solubility represents an obstacle towards intravenous formulation of MPD and impedes successful in vivo antitumor activity. To surmount such limitation, MPD microemulsion (MPDME) was developed. A 3122 full factorial design using Design-Expert® software was adopted to study the influence of different parameters and select the optimum formulation (MPDME1). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) displayed spherical droplets of MPDME1. The cytotoxicity of MPDME1 in Michigan Cancer Foundation 7 (MCF-7) breast cancer cell line exceeded that of MPD solution (MPDS) and tamoxifen. Compatibility with injectable diluents, in vitro hemolytic studies and in vivo histopathological examination confirmed the safety of parenteral application of MPDME1. Molecular docking results showed almost same binding affinity of A10, MPD and 125I-MPD with histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) receptor. Accordingly, radioiodination of MPDME1 and MPDS was done via direct electrophilic substitution reaction. Biodistribution of 125I-MPDME1 and 125I-MPDS in normal and tumor (ascites and solid) bearing mice showed high accumulation of 125I-MPDME1 in tumor tissues. Overall, the results proved that MPDME represents promising parenteral delivery system capable of improving antineoplastic activity of MPD.

A total of 24 N-substituted 3,5-bis(2-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene)piperidin-4-one derivatives were synthesized via aldol condensation, and their anti-inflammatory activities were evaluated. These compounds were found to have no significant cytotoxicity against mouse bone marrow cells inâ vitro. However, some compounds, such as c6 (N-(3-methylbenzoyl)-3,5-bis-(2-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene)piperidin-4-one) and c10 (N-(2-chlorobenzoyl)-3,5-bis-(2-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene)piperidin-4-one), displayed potent anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1ß, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 cells. Treatment with c6 or c10 at 2.5 or 10â mg kg-1 significantly decreased the paw edema induced by carrageenan in rats, and the anti-inflammatory effects of these compounds were found to be better than those of celecoxib or indomethacin as well as their parent compound C66 (2,6-bis-(2-(trifluoromethyl)benzylidene)cyclohexanone). Pharmacokinetic analysis indicated that c6 has better bioavailability than curcumin. Therefore, these compounds may be valuable leads for the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs.

BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal of human malignancies known to date and shows relative insensitivity towards most of the clinically available therapy regimens. 3,5-bis(2-fluorobenzylidene)-4-piperidone (EF24), a novel synthetic curcumin analog, has shown promising in vitro therapeutic efficacy in various human cancer cells, but insufficient water solubility and systemic bioavailability limit its clinical application. Here, we describe nano-encapsulation of EF24 into pegylated liposomes (Lipo-EF24) and evaluation of these particles in preclinical in vitro and in vivo model systems of pancreatic cancer. RESULTS: Transmission electron microscopy and size distribution studies by dynamic light scattering confirmed intact spherical morphology of the formed liposomes with an average diameter of less than 150 nm. In vitro, treatment with Lipo-EF24 induced growth inhibition and apoptosis in MIAPaCa and Pa03C pancreatic cancer cells as assessed by using cell viability and proliferation assays, replating and soft agar clonogenicity assays as well as western blot analyses. Lipo-EF24 potently suppressed NF-kappaB nuclear translocation by inhibiting phosphorylation and subsequent degradation of its inhibitor I-kappa-B-alpha. In vivo, synergistic tumor growth inhibition was observed in MIAPaCa xenografts when Lipo-EF24 was given in combination with the standard-of-care cytotoxic agent gemcitabine. In line with in vitro observations, western blot analysis revealed decreased phosphorylation of I-kappa-B-alpha in excised Lipo-EF24-treated xenograft tumor tissues. CONCLUSION: Due to its promising therapeutic efficacy and favorable toxicity profile Lipo-EF24 might be a promising starting point for development of future combinatorial therapeutic regimens against pancreatic cancer.

Piplartine (PL) is an alkaloid found in black-pepper and known for its anticancer activity, however, due to poor solubility and lack of proper formulation, its use for oral administration is a challenge. The objective of this study was to formulate PL into nanoemulsion drug delivery system for oral delivery and thereafter evaluate toxicity, pharmacokinetics and therapeutic efficacy. Optimized nanoemulsions were formulated by self-emulsification as well as by homogenization-sonication method. Two nanoemulsions enhanced the solubility of PL with low polydispersity index and high stability. Both PL loaded nanoemulsions exhibited enhanced dissolution, cellular permeability and cytotoxic effects as compared to pure PL. Formulation of PL into nanoemulsions did not obstruct its cellular uptake in cancer cells. Blank or PL loaded nanoemulsions did not exhibited toxicity in mice upon daily oral administration for 60 days. Pharmacokinetics of PL followed a two-compartment model after intravenous administration. PL loaded nanoemulsions showed 1.5-fold increase in oral bioavailability as compared to free PL. Finally, PL loaded nanoemulsions showed marked anti-tumor activity at a dose of 10mg/kg in melanoma tumor bearing mice. In conclusion, for the first time we have developed a stable nanoemulsion delivery system for oral administration of PL, which enhanced its solubility, oral bioavailability and anti-tumor efficacy.

1. AMG 232 is a novel inhibitor of the p53-MDM2 protein-protein interaction currently in Phase I clinical trials for multiple tumor indications. The objectives of the investigations reported in this article were to characterize the pharmacokinetic and drug metabolism properties of AMG 232 in pre-clinical species in vivo and in vitro, and in humans in vitro, and to predict its pharmacokinetics in humans through integrating PKDM data. 2. AMG 232 exhibited low clearance (<0.25 × Qh) and moderate to high oral bioavailability in mice, rats and monkeys (>42%), but high clearance (0.74 × Qh) and low oral exposure in dogs (18%). 3. Biotransformation was the major route of elimination of AMG 232 in rats, with only 7% of intravenously administered (14)C-labeled AMG 232 recovered as parent molecule in bile. The major metabolite was an acyl glucuronide as measured by in vivo rat studies and in vitro hepatocyte incubations in multiple species. 4. The in vitro-in vivo correlation of AMG 232 clearance was within 2-fold in pre-clinical species using hepatocytes. AMG 232 was predicted to exhibit low clearance, high volume distribution and long half-life in humans. The predictions are consistent with the preliminary human pharmacokinetic parameters of AMG 232 in clinical trials.

BACKGROUND: In type 2 diabetes mellitus, fixed-dose combination (FDC) can provide the complementary benefits of correction of multiple pathophysiologic defects such as dysfunctions in glycemic or metabolic control while improving compliance compared with separate tablets taken together. The objective of the study reported here was to compare the pharmacodynamic (PD), pharmacokinetic (PK), and tolerability profiles of gemigliptin and extended-release metformin (metformin XR) between FDC and separate tablets. METHODS: A randomized, open-label, single-dose, two-way, two-period, crossover study was conducted in 28 healthy male volunteers. Two FDC tablets of gemigliptin/metformin 25/500 mg or separate tablets of gemigliptin (50 mg ×1) and metformin XR (500 mg ×2) were orally administered in each period. Serial blood samples were collected up to 48 hours post-dose to determine dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) activity using spectrophotometric assay and concentrations of gemigliptin and metformin using tandem mass spectrometry. Geometric mean ratios (GMRs) of FDC to separate tablet formulations and their 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to compare the PD and PK parameters between the two formulations. Tolerability was assessed throughout the study. RESULTS: The plasma DPP-4 activity-time curves of the FDC and the separate tablets almost overlapped, leading to a GMR (90% CI) of the FDC to separate tablets for the plasma DPP-4 activity and its maximum inhibition of 1.00 (0.97-1.04) and 0.92 (0.82-1.05), respectively. Likewise, all of the GMRs (90% CIs) of FDC to separate tablets for the area under the plasma concentration-time curve and maximum plasma concentration of gemigliptin and metformin fell entirely within the conventional bioequivalence range of 0.80-1.25. Both the FDC and separate tablets were well tolerated. CONCLUSION: The PD, PK, and tolerability profiles of gemigliptin and metformin XR in FDC and separate tablets were found to be comparable. The FDC tablet of gemigliptin and metformin sustained release can be a convenient therapeutic option in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus requiring a combination approach.
