RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Pazopanib is registered for metastatic renal cell carcinoma and soft-tissue sarcoma (STS). Its variable pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics and narrow therapeutic range provide a strong rationale for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Prior studies have defined target levels of drug exposure (≥ 20.5 mg/L) linked to prolonged progression-free survival (PFS), but the added value of using TDM remains unclear. This study investigates the effect of TDM of pazopanib in patients with STS on survival outcomes and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and evaluates the feasibility of TDM-guided dosing. METHODS: A TDM-guided cohort was compared to a non-TDM-guided cohort for PFS, overall survival (OS) and DLTs. PK samples were available from all patients, though not acted upon in the non-TDM-guided cohort. We evaluated the feasibility of TDM by comparing the proportion of underdosed patients in our TDM cohort with data from previous publications. RESULTS: A total of 122 STS patients were included in the TDM-guided cohort (n = 95) and non-TDM-guided cohort (n = 27). The average exposure in the overall population was 30.5 mg/L and was similar in both groups. Median PFS and OS did not differ between the TDM-guided cohort and non-TDM-guided cohort (respectively 5.5 vs 4.4 months, p = 0.3, and 12.6 vs 10.1 months, p = 0.8). Slightly more patients in the non-TDM-guided cohort experienced DLTs (54%) compared to the TDM-guided cohort (44%). The proportion of underdosed patients (13.3%) was halved compared to historical data (26.7%). CONCLUSION: TDM reduced the proportion of patients with subtherapeutic exposure levels by ~ 50%. Nonetheless, the added value of TDM for achieving target trough levels of ≥ 20.5 mg/L for pazopanib on survival outcomes could not be confirmed in STS patients.

Poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) plays an important role in the DNA repair process and has become an attractive target for cancer therapy in recent years. Given that niraparib has good clinical efficacy as a PARP inhibitor, this study aimed to develop radiolabeled niraparib derivatives for tumor imaging to detect PARP expression and improve the accuracy of stratified patient therapy. The niraparib isonitrile derivative (CNPN) was designed, synthesized, and radiolabeled to obtain the [99mTc]Tc-CNPN complex with high radiochemical purity (>95%). It was lipophilic and stable in vitro. In HeLa cell experiments, the uptake of [99mTc]Tc-CNPN was effectively inhibited by the ligand CNPN, indicating the binding affinity for PARP. According to the biodistribution studies of HeLa tumor-bearing mice, [99mTc]Tc-CNPN has moderate tumor uptake and can be effectively inhibited, demonstrating its specificity for targeting PARP. The SPECT imaging results showed that [99mTc]Tc-CNPN had tumor uptake at 2 h postinjection. All of the results of this study indicated that [99mTc]Tc-CNPN is a promising tumor imaging agent that targets PARP.

BACKGROUND: Several novel synthetic cannabinoids, including methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1Hindazole-3-carboxamido)-3-methylbutanoate (AMB-FUBINACA), have recently surfaced on the illicit drug market. To determine the pharmacokinetic properties (half-life, volume of distribution, and clearance) of AMB-FUBINACA in rats plasma, a straightforward, quick, and highly sensitive analytical approach was developed. METHODS: Eighteen Wistar rats were divided into two groups: one control (saline vehicle) and one treatment group (AMB-FUBINACA at 50 mg/kg). Blood samples (400 µL) were withdrawn via catheters immediately before (t = 0) and at 30, 60, 90, 120, and 240 min following injection. Samples were collected into 1 mL tuberculin syringes, then transferred to 1.5 mL plastic tubes containing 5 µL of 1000 IU/mL K3-EDTA (Thomas Scientific). Place the EDTA tubes containing samples in a centrifuge and spin at 1000 g for 10 min at 4 °C. The top layer is the plasma fraction, which is decanted into cryovials and stored at -20 °C until analysis. The gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) method was optimized and validated, combined with liquid-liquid extraction, to analyze AMB-FUBINACA in rat plasma. RESULTS: The research method successfully met the validation requirements set by the FDA, demonstrating selectivity and linear calibration curves within a concentration range of 0.5-1000 ng/ml. The correlation coefficient (r2) was determined to be 0.99, indicating a strong linear relationship. The analyte's limit of quantitation (LOQ) was determined to be 1-5 ng/mL. Subsequently, the method was successfully applied to investigate the pharmacokinetics of AMB-FUBINACA in rats' blood samples. Following oral administration, AMB-FUBINACA was rapidly absorbed, with a plasma half-life (t1/2) of 5.91 h, a volume of distribution (Vd) of 203.13 l, and a plasma clearance of 23.81122 L/h. CONCLUSION: These findings contribute to the understanding of AMB-FUBINACA's pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.

Niraparib is a potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) with high specificity for isoforms 1 and 2. It has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for ovarian cancer maintenance therapy and is currently under development for various cancers, including glioblastoma. To assess central nervous system (CNS) penetration of niraparib in glioblastoma patients, a novel bioanalytical method was developed to measure total and unbound niraparib levels in human brain tumor tissue and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The method was validated using plasma as a surrogate matrix over the concentration range of 1-10,000â¯nM on an LC-MS/MS system. The MS/MS detection was conducted in positive electrospray ionization mode, while chromatography was performed using a Kinetex™ PS C18 column with a total 3.5-minute gradient elution run time. The maximum coefficient of variation for both intra- and inter-day precision was 10.6%, with accuracy ranging from 92.8% - 118.5% across all matrices. Niraparib was stable in human brain homogenate for at least 6â¯hours at room temperature (RT) and 32 days at -20°C, as well as in stock and working solutions for at least 21â¯hours (RT) and 278 days (4°C). Equilibrium dialysis experiments revealed the fractions unbound of 0.05 and 0.16 for niraparib in human brain and plasma, respectively. The validated method is currently employed to assess niraparib levels in human glioblastoma tissue, CSF, and plasma in an ongoing trial on newly diagnosed glioblastoma and recurrent IDH1/2(+) ATRX mutant glioma patients (NCT05076513). Initial results of calculated total (Kp) and unbound (Kp,uu) tumor-to-plasma partition coefficients indicate significant brain penetration ability of niraparib in glioblastoma patients.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The combination of niraparib and abiraterone acetate (AA) plus prednisone is under investigation for the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). Regular-strength (RS) and lower-strength (LS) dual-action tablets (DATs), comprising niraparib 100 mg/AA 500 mg and niraparib 50 mg/AA 500 mg, respectively, were developed to reduce pill burden and improve patient experience. A bioequivalence (BE)/bioavailability (BA) study was conducted under modified fasting conditions in patients with mCRPC to support approval of the DATs. METHODS: This open-label randomized BA/BE study (NCT04577833) was conducted at 14 sites in the USA and Europe. The study had a sequential design, including a 21-day screening phase, a pharmacokinetic (PK) assessment phase comprising three periods [namely (1) single-dose with up to 1-week run-in, (2) daily dose on days 1-11, and (3) daily dose on days 12-22], an extension where both niraparib and AA as single-agent combination (SAC; reference) or AA alone was continued from day 23 until discontinuation, and a 30-day follow-up phase. Patients were randomly assigned in a parallel-group design (four-sequence randomization) to receive a single oral dose of niraparib 100 mg/AA 1000 mg as a LS-DAT or SAC in period 1, and patients continued as randomized into a two-way crossover design during periods 2 and 3 where they received niraparib 200 mg/AA 1000 mg once daily as a RS-DAT or SAC. The design was powered on the basis of crossover assessment of RS-DAT versus SAC. During repeated dosing (periods 2 and 3, and extension phase), all patients also received prednisone/prednisolone 5 mg twice daily. Plasma samples were collected for measurement of niraparib and abiraterone plasma concentrations. Statistical assessment of the RS-DAT and LS-DAT versus SAC was performed on log-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters data from periods 2 and 3 (crossover) and from period 1 (parallel), respectively. Additional paired analyses and model-based bioequivalence assessments were conducted to evaluate the similarity between the LS-DAT and SAC. RESULTS: For the RS-DAT versus SAC, the 90% confidence intervals (CI) of geometric mean ratios (GMR) for maximum concentration at a steady state (Cmax,ss) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0-24 h at a steady state (AUC 0-24h,ss) were respectively 99.18-106.12% and 97.91-104.31% for niraparib and 87.59-106.69 and 86.91-100.23% for abiraterone. For the LS-DAT vs SAC, the 90% CI of GMR for AUC0-72h of niraparib was 80.31-101.12% in primary analysis, the 90% CI of GMR for Cmax,ss and AUC 0-24h,ss of abiraterone was 85.41-118.34% and 86.51-121.64% respectively, and 96.4% of simulated LS-DAT versus SAC BE trials met the BE criteria for both niraparib and abiraterone. CONCLUSIONS: The RS-DAT met BE criteria (range 80%-125%) versus SAC based on 90% CI of GMR for Cmax,ss and AUC 0-24h,ss. The LS-DAT was considered BE to SAC on the basis of the niraparib component meeting the BE criteria in the primary analysis for AUC 0-72h; abiraterone meeting the BE criteria in additional paired analyses based on Cmax,ss and AUC 0-24h,ss; and the percentage of simulated LS-DAT versus SAC BE trials meeting the BE criteria for both. GOV IDENTIFIER: NCT04577833.

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The development of sepsis is associated with excessive nitric oxide (NO) production, which plays an important role in controlling vascular homeostasis. 7-nitroindazole (7-NI) is a selective inhibitor of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS-1) with potential application for treating NO imbalance conditions. However, 7-NI exhibits a low aqueous solubility and a short plasma half-life. To circumvent these biopharmaceutical limitations, pegylated (NEPEG7NI) and non-pegylated nanoemulsions (NENPEG7NI) containing 7-NI were developed. This study evaluates the pharmacokinetic profiles and toxicological properties of 7-NI loaded into the nanoemulsions. After a single intravenous administration of the free drug and the nanoemulsions at a dose of 10 mg.kg-1 in Wistar rats, 7-NI was widely distributed in the organs. The pharmacokinetic parameters of Cmax, t1/2, and AUC0-t were significantly increased after administration of the NEPEG7NI, compared to both free 7-NI and NENPEG7NI (p < 0.05). No observable adverse effects were observed after administering the free 7-NI, NEPEG7NI, or NENPEG7NI in the animals after a single dose of up to 3.0 mg.kg-1. The results indicated that 7-NI-loaded nanoemulsions are safe, constituting a promising approach to treating sepsis.

Ensitrelvir is a novel selective inhibitor of the 3C-like protease of SARS-CoV-2, which is essential for viral replication. This phase 1 study of ensitrelvir assessed its safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single (part 1, n = 50) and multiple (part 2, n = 33) ascending oral doses. Effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of ensitrelvir, differences in pharmacokinetics of ensitrelvir between Japanese and white participants, and effect of ensitrelvir on the pharmacokinetics of midazolam (a cytochrome P450 3A [CYP3A] substrate) were also assessed. In part 1, Japanese participants were randomized to placebo or ensitrelvir at doses of 20, 70, 250, 500, 1,000, or 2,000 mg. In part 2, Japanese and white participants were randomized to placebo or once-daily ensitrelvir at loading/maintenance dose 375/125 mg or 750/250 mg for 5 days. Most treatment-related adverse events observed were mild in severity and were resolved without treatment. Plasma exposures showed almost dose proportionality, and geometric mean half-life of ensitrelvir following the single dose was 42.2 to 48.1 h. Food intake reduced Cmax and delayed Tmax of ensitrelvir but did not impact the area under the curve (AUC), suggesting suitability for administration without food restriction. Compared with Japanese participants, plasma exposures were slightly lower for white participants. Ensitrelvir affected the pharmacokinetics of CYP3A substrates because of increase in AUC of midazolam coadministered with ensitrelvir 750/250 mg on day 6. In conclusion, ensitrelvir was well-tolerated and demonstrated favorable pharmacokinetics, including a long half-life, supporting once-daily oral dosing. These results validate further assessments of ensitrelvir in participants with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Mutations in the Leucine Rich Repeat Protein Kinase 2 gene (LRRK2) are the most common genetic causes of Parkinson's Disease (PD). The G2019S mutation is the most common inherited LRRK2 mutation, occurs in the kinase domain, and results in increased kinase activity. We report the discovery and development of compound 38, an indazole-based, G2019S-selective (>2000-fold vs. WT) LRRK2 inhibitor capable of entering rodent brain (Kp = 0.5) and selectively inhibiting G2019S-LRRK2. The compounds disclosed herein present a starting point for further development of brain penetrant G2019S selective inhibitors that hopefully reduce lung phenotype side-effects and pave the way to providing a precision medicine for people with PD who carry the G2019S mutation.

BACKGROUND: Pazopanib and sunitinib are oral tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) approved for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma. For both oncolytics, a clear target trough concentration level in plasma has been defined above which improved clinical efficacy can be expected. However, many factors can alter TKI exposure, including disease characteristics. CASE: A 79-year old male with metastatic papillary renal cell carcinoma and malignant ascites was treated with pazopanib. Initially, treatment with pazopanib at adequate trough concentrations resulted in regression of ascites. After a 6-month puncture-free interval, paracenteses were again required and the plasma trough concentration of pazopanib had decreased to 5 mg/L without any dose adjustments. Despite a dose increase, pazopanib levels remained subtherapeutic and could not prevent new paracenteses. Pazopanib concentrations in the drained ascites fluid were comparable to plasma concentrations and remained high also after treatment discontinuation. This observation suggests that the ascites compartment may act as a third space in which pazopanib accumulates. During subsequent treatment with sunitinib, a similar distribution over ascites fluid was observed. CONCLUSION: Presence of ascites or pleural effusion in patients treated with TKIs may lead to subtherapeutic plasma exposure, which may hamper treatment efficacy. Measuring TKIs plasma concentrations regularly during treatment is essential to identify patients with subtherapeutic exposure.

Background Entrectinib is a CNS-active, potent inhibitor of tyrosine receptor kinases A/B/C, ROS1 and anaplastic lymphoma kinase approved for use in patients with solid tumors. We describe the in vitro and clinical studies investigating potential entrectinib drug-drug interactions. Methods In vitro studies with human biomaterials assessed the enzymes involved in entrectinib metabolism, and whether entrectinib modulates the activity of the major cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes or drug transporter P-glycoprotein. Clinical studies investigated the effect of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor (itraconazole) and inducer (rifampin) on single-dose entrectinib pharmacokinetics. The effect of entrectinib on sensitive probe substrates for CYP3A4 (midazolam) and P-glycoprotein (digoxin) were also investigated. Results Entrectinib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4. In vitro, entrectinib is a CYP3A4/5 inhibitor (IC50 2 µM) and a weak CYP3A4 inducer. Entrectinib inhibited P-glycoprotein (IC50 1.33 µM) but is a poor substrate. In healthy subjects, itraconazole increased entrectinib Cmax and AUC by 73% and 504%, respectively, and rifampin decreased entrectinib Cmax and AUC by 56% and 77%, respectively. Single dose entrectinib did not affect midazolam AUC, although Cmax decreased by 34%. Multiple dose entrectinib increased midazolam AUC by 50% and decreased Cmax by 21%. Single dose entrectinib increased digoxin AUC and Cmax by 18% and 28%, respectively, but did not affect digoxin renal clearance. Conclusions Entrectinib is a CYP3A4 substrate and is sensitive to the effects of coadministered moderate/strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and strong inducers, and requires dose adjustment. Entrectinib is a weak inhibitor of CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein and no dose adjustments are required with CYP3A4/P- glycoprotein substrates.Registration Number (Study 2) NCT03330990 (first posted online November 6, 2017) As studies 1 and 3 are phase 1 trials in healthy subjects, they are not required to be registered.

Niraparib (Zejula), a selective oral PARP1/2 inhibitor registered for ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer treatment, is under investigation for other malignancies, including brain tumors. We explored the impact of the ABCB1 and ABCG2 multidrug efflux transporters, the OATP1A/1B uptake transporters, and the CYP3A drug-metabolizing complex on oral niraparib pharmacokinetics, using wild-type and genetically modified mouse and cell line models. In vitro, human ABCB1 and mouse Abcg2 transported niraparib moderately. Compared to wild-type mice, niraparib brain-to-plasma ratios were 6- to 7-fold increased in Abcb1a/1b-/- and Abcb1a/1b;Abcg2-/- but not in single Abcg2-/- mice, while niraparib plasma exposure at later time points was â¼2-fold increased. Niraparib recovery in the small intestinal content was markedly reduced in the Abcb1a/1b-deficient strains. Pretreatment of wild-type mice with oral elacridar, an ABCB1/ABCG2 inhibitor, increased niraparib brain concentration and reduced small intestinal content recovery to levels observed in Abcb1a/1b;Abcg2-/- mice. Oatp1a/1b deletion did not significantly affect niraparib oral bioavailability or liver distribution but decreased metabolite M1 liver uptake. No significant effects of mouse Cyp3a ablation were observed, but overexpression of transgenic human CYP3A4 unexpectedly increased niraparib plasma exposure. Thus, Abcb1 deficiency markedly increased niraparib brain distribution and reduced its small intestinal content recovery, presumably through reduced biliary excretion and/or decreased direct intestinal excretion. Elacridar pretreatment inhibited both processes completely. Clinically, the negligible role of OATP1 and CYP3A could be advantageous for niraparib, diminishing drug-drug interaction or interindividual variation risks involving these proteins. These findings may support the further clinical development and application of niraparib.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Entrectinib is a selective inhibitor of ROS1/TRK/ALK kinases, recently approved for oncology indications. Entrectinib is predominantly cleared by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, and modulation of CYP3A enzyme activity profoundly alters the pharmacokinetics of both entrectinib and its active metabolite M5. We describe development of a combined physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for entrectinib and M5 to support dosing recommendations when entrectinib is co-administered with CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers. METHODS: A PBPK model was established in Simcyp® Simulator. The initial model based on in vitro-in vivo extrapolation was refined using sensitivity analysis and non-linear mixed effects modeling to optimize parameter estimates and to improve model fit to data from a clinical drug-drug interaction study with the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor, itraconazole. The model was subsequently qualified against clinical data, and the final qualified model used to simulate the effects of moderate to strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers on entrectinib and M5 pharmacokinetics. RESULTS: The final model showed good predictive performance for entrectinib and M5, meeting commonly used predictive performance acceptance criteria in each case. The model predicted that co-administration of various moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors (verapamil, erythromycin, clarithromycin, fluconazole, and diltiazem) would result in an average increase in entrectinib exposure between 2.2- and 3.1-fold, with corresponding average increases for M5 of approximately 2-fold. Co-administration of moderate CYP3A4 inducers (efavirenz, carbamazepine, phenytoin) was predicted to result in an average decrease in entrectinib exposure between 45 and 79%, with corresponding average decreases for M5 of approximately 50%. CONCLUSIONS: The model simulations were used to derive dosing recommendations for co-administering entrectinib with CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers. PBPK modeling has been used in lieu of clinical studies to enable regulatory decision-making.

PURPOSE: Entrectinib (ROZLYTREK®) is a CNS-active, potent, and selective inhibitor of ROS1, TRK A/B/C, and ALK kinase activity. It was recently approved for the treatment of ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer and NTRK gene fusion-positive solid tumors. The main objective of this analysis was to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of entrectinib and its main active metabolite, M5. METHODS: A total of 276 cancer patients receiving oral entrectinib were included in the analysis. A model-based population approach was used to characterize the PK profiles of both entities using NONMEM® 7.4. A joint model captures the PK of both entrectinib and M5. The effects of pH modifiers, formulation, weight, age, and sex on model parameters were assessed. Model performance was evaluated using visual predictive checks (VPCs). RESULTS: The absorption of entrectinib was best described using a sequential zero- and first-order absorption model and the disposition with one-compartment model for each entity with linear elimination. Moderate-to-high between-patient variability was estimated in model parameters (from 30.8% for the apparent clearance of entrectinib to 122% for the first-order absorption rate constant). Theory-based allometric scaling using body weight on clearances and volumes and a 28% lower relative bioavailability of the F1 formulation in pediatric patients were retained in the model. The VPC confirmed the good predictive performance of the PopPK model. CONCLUSIONS: A robust population PK model was built and qualified for entrectinib and M5, describing linear PK for both entities.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to characterize niraparib pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety in patients with normal hepatic function (NHF) versus moderate hepatic impairment (MHI). METHODS: Patients with advanced solid tumors were stratified by NHF or MHI (National Cancer Institute-Organ Dysfunction Working Group criteria [bilirubin > 1.5-3 × upper limit of normal and any aspartate aminotransferase elevation]). In the PK phase, all patients received one 300 mg dose of niraparib. In the extension phase, patients with MHI received niraparib 200 mg daily; patients with NHF received 200 or 300 mg based on weight (< 77 kg, ≥ 77 kg)/platelets (< 150,000/µL, ≥ 150,000/µL). PK parameters included maximum concentration (Cmax), area under the curve to last measured concentration (AUClast) and extrapolated to infinity (AUCinf). Safety was assessed in both phases. Exposure-response (E-R) modeling was used to predict MHI effects on exposure and safety of niraparib doses ≤ 200 mg or 300/200 mg or 200/100 mg weight/platelet regimens. RESULTS: In the PK phase (NHF, n = 9; MHI, n = 8), mean niraparib Cmax was 7% lower in patients with MHI versus NHF. Mean exposure (AUClast, AUCinf) was increased by 45% and 56%, respectively, in patients with MHI without impacting tolerability. In the extension phase (NHF, n = 8; MHI, n = 7), the overall safety profile was consistent with previous trials. In patients with MHI, E-R modeling predicted niraparib 200 mg reduced Grade ≥ 3 thrombocytopenia incidence, whereas a 200/100 mg regimen yielded exposures below efficacy-associated levels in 15% of patients. CONCLUSION: These findings support adjusting the 300 mg niraparib starting dose to 200 mg QD in patients with MHI. TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT03359850; registered December 2, 2017.

Nezulcitinib (TD-0903), a lung-selective pan-Janus-associated kinase (JAK) inhibitor designed for inhaled delivery, is under development for treatment of acute lung injury associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This two-part, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (part A) and multiple ascending dose (part B) phase I study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of nezulcitinib in healthy participants. Part A included three cohorts randomized 6:2 to receive a single inhaled dose of nezulcitinib (1, 3, or 10 mg) or matching placebo. Part B included three cohorts randomized 8:2 to receive inhaled nezulcitinib (1, 3, or 10 mg) or matching placebo for 7 days. The primary outcome was nezulcitinib safety and tolerability assessed from treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). The secondary outcome was nezulcitinib PK. All participants completed the study. All TEAEs were mild or moderate in severity, and none led to treatment discontinuation. Overall (area under the plasma concentration-time curve) and peak (maximal plasma concentration) plasma exposures of nezulcitinib were low and increased in a dose-proportional manner from 1 to 10 mg in both parts, with no suggestion of clinically meaningful drug accumulation. Maximal plasma exposures were below levels expected to result in systemic target engagement, consistent with a lung-selective profile. No reductions in natural killer cell counts were observed, consistent with the lack of a systemic pharmacological effect and the observed PK. In summary, single and multiple doses of inhaled nezulcitinib at 1, 3, and 10 mg were well-tolerated in healthy participants, with dose-proportional PK supporting once-daily administration.

Food can alter drug absorption and impact safety and efficacy. Besides conducting clinical studies, in vitro approaches such as biorelevant solubility and dissolution testing and in vivo dog studies are typical approaches to estimate a drug's food effect. The use of physiologically based pharmacokinetic models has gained importance and is nowadays a standard tool for food effect predictions at preclinical and clinical stages in the pharmaceutical industry. This manuscript is part of a broader publication from the IQ Consortium's food effect physiologically based pharmacokinetic model (PBPK) modeling working group and complements previous publications by focusing on cases where the food effect was predicted with low confidence. Pazopanib-HCl, trospium-Cl, and ziprasidone-HCl served as model compounds to provide insights into why several food effect predictions failed in the first instance. Furthermore, the manuscript depicts approaches whereby PBPK-based food effect predictions may be improved. These improvements should focus on the PBPK model functionality, especially better reflecting fasted- and fed-state gastric solubility, gastric re-acidification, and complex mechanisms related to gastric emptying of drugs. For improvement of in vitro methodologies, the focus should be on the development of more predictive solubility, supersaturation, and precipitation assays. With regards to the general PBPK modeling methodology, modelers should account for the full solubility profile when modeling ionizable compounds, including common ion effects, and apply a straightforward strategy to account for drug precipitation.

The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGFR and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c-MET signaling pathways act synergistically to promote angiogenesis. Studies indicate VEGF inhibition leads to increased levels of phosphorylated c-MET, bypassing VEGF-mediated angiogenesis and leading to chemoresistance. We conducted a phase 1 clinical trial with 32 patients with refractory solid tumors to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of combinations of VEGF-targeting pazopanib and the putative c-MET inhibitor ARQ197 (tivantinib) at 5 dose levels (DLs). Patients either took pazopanib and tivantinib from treatment initiation (escalation phase) or pazopanib alone for 7 days, with paired tumor sampling, prior to starting combination treatment (expansion phase). Hypertension was the most common adverse event. No more than 1 dose limiting toxicity (DLT) occurred at any DL, so the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was not determined; DL5 (800 mg pazopanib daily and 360 mg tivantinib BID) was used during the expansion phase. Twenty of 31 evaluable patients achieved stable disease lasting up to 22 cycles. Circulating VEGF, VEGFR2, HGF, and c-MET levels were assessed, and only VEGF levels increased. Tumor c-MET levels (total and phosphorylated) were determined in paired biopsies before and after 7 days of pazopanib treatment. Total intact c-MET decreased in 6 of 7 biopsy pairs, in contrast to previously reported c-MET elevation in response to VEGF inhibition. These results are discussed in the context of our previously reported analysis of epithelial-mesenchymal transition in these tumors.

In vitro pharmacokinetic studies were conducted on enantiomer pairs of twelve valinate or tert-leucinate indole and indazole-3-carboxamide synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) detected on the illicit drug market to investigate their physicochemical parameters and structure-metabolism relationships (SMRs). Experimentally derived Log D7.4 ranged from 2.81 (AB-FUBINACA) to 4.95 (MDMB-4en-PINACA) and all SCRAs tested were highly protein bound, ranging from 88.9 ± 0.49% ((R)-4F-MDMB-BINACA) to 99.5 ± 0.08% ((S)-MDMB-FUBINACA). Most tested SCRAs were cleared rapidly in vitro in pooled human liver microsomes (pHLM) and pooled cryopreserved human hepatocytes (pHHeps). Intrinsic clearance (CLint) ranged from 13.7 ± 4.06 ((R)-AB-FUBINACA) to 2944 ± 95.9 mL min-1 kg-1 ((S)-AMB-FUBINACA) in pHLM, and from 110 ± 34.5 ((S)-AB-FUBINACA) to 3216 ± 607 mL min-1 kg-1 ((S)-AMB-FUBINACA) in pHHeps. Predicted Human in vivo hepatic clearance (CLH) ranged from 0.34 ± 0.09 ((S)-AB-FUBINACA) to 17.79 ± 0.20 mL min-1 kg-1 ((S)-5F-AMB-PINACA) in pHLM and 1.39 ± 0.27 ((S)-MDMB-FUBINACA) to 18.25 ± 0.12 mL min-1 kg-1 ((S)-5F-AMB-PINACA) in pHHeps. Valinate and tert-leucinate indole and indazole-3-carboxamide SCRAs are often rapidly metabolised in vitro but are highly protein bound in vivo and therefore predicted in vivo CLH is much slower than CLint. This is likely to give rise to longer detection windows of these substances and their metabolites in urine, possibly as a result of accumulation of parent drug in lipid-rich tissues, with redistribution into the circulatory system and subsequent metabolism.

PURPOSE: To assess the safety and pharmacokinetics and determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of niraparib with apalutamide or abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). METHODS: BEDIVERE was a multicenter, open-label, phase 1b study of niraparib 200 or 300 mg/day with apalutamide 240 mg or AAP (abiraterone acetate 1000 mg; prednisone 10 mg). Patients with mCRPC were previously treated with ≥ 2 lines of systemic therapy, including ≥ 1 androgen receptor-axis-targeted therapy for prostate cancer. RESULTS: Thirty-three patients were enrolled (niraparib-apalutamide, 6; niraparib-AAP, 27). No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were reported when combinations included niraparib 200 mg; five patients receiving niraparib 300 mg experienced DLTs [niraparib-apalutamide, 2/3 patients (66.7%); niraparib-AAP, 3/8 patients (37.5%)]. Although data are limited, niraparib exposures were lower when given with apalutamide compared with historical niraparib monotherapy exposures in patients with solid tumors. Because of the higher incidence of DLTs, the niraparib-apalutamide combination and niraparib 300 mg combination with AAP were not further evaluated. Niraparib 200 mg was selected as the RP2D with AAP. Of 19 patients receiving niraparib 200 mg with AAP, 12 (63.2%) had grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events, the most common being thrombocytopenia (26.3%) and hypertension (21.1%). Five patients (26.3%) had adverse events leading to treatment discontinuation. CONCLUSIONS: These results support the choice of niraparib 200 mg as the RP2D with AAP. The niraparib-AAP combination was tolerable in patients with mCRPC, with no new safety signals. An ongoing phase 3 study is further assessing this combination in patients with mCRPC.

To develop potent and orally bioavailable melatonin receptor (MT1 and MT2) agonists, a novel series of 5-6-5 tricyclic derivatives was designed, synthesized, and evaluated. The synthesized indeno[5,4-d][1,3]oxazole, cyclopenta[c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine, indeno[5,4-d][1,3]thiazole, and cyclopenta[e]indazole derivatives showed potent binding affinities for MT1/MT2 receptors. Further optimization of these derivatives based on their metabolic stability in human hepatic microsomes revealed that (S)-3b ((S)-N-[2-(2-methyl-7,8-dihydro-6H-indeno[5,4-d][1,3]oxazol-8-yl)ethyl]acetamide) was a potent MT1 and MT2 ligand (MT1, Ki = 0.031 nM; MT2, Ki = 0.070 nM) with good metabolic stability in human hepatic microsomes. Moreover, compound (S)-3b showed good BBB permeability in rats, and its in vivo pharmacological effects were confirmed by its sleep-promotion ability in cats.
