Biological Activity of EVP-6124

DescriptionEVP-6124 is a novel partial agonist of α7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs).In Vitro:EVP-6124 displaces [3H]-MLA (Methyllycaconitine) (Ki=9.98 nM, pIC50=7.65±0.06, n=3) and [125I]-α-bungarotoxin (Ki=4.33 nM, pIC50=8.07±0.04, n=3). EVP-6124 is approximately 300 fold more potent than the natural agonist ACh (Ki=3 μM), measured in binding assays using [3H]-MLA. EVP-6124 inhibits the 5-HT3 receptor by 51% at 10 nM, the lowest concentration tested. Evaluation of the human 5-HT2B receptor expressed in CHO cells demonstrates displacement of [3H]-mesulergine (Ki=14 nM) and only antagonist activity in the rat gastric fundus assay at an IC50 of 16 μM. In binding and functional experiments, EVP-6124 shows selectivity for α7 nAChRs and does not activate or inhibit heteromeric α4β2 nAChRs[1].In Vivo:EVP-6124 has good brain penetration and an adequate exposure time. EVP-6124 (0.3 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly restores memory function in scopolamine-treated rats (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) in an object recognition task (ORT). Although donepezil at 0.1 mg/kg, p.o. or EVP-6124 at 0.03 mg/kg, p.o. did not improve memory in this task, co-administration of these sub-efficacious doses fully restored memory. In a natural forgetting test, an ORT with a 24 h retention time, EVP-6124 improved memory at 0.3 mg/kg, p.o. This improvement is blocked by the selective α7 nAChR antagonist methyllycaconitine (0.3 mg/kg, i.p. or 10 μg, i.c.v.). EVP-6124 is found to bind moderately to rat plasma proteins with a mean fu of 0.11±0.01 (mean±SD) or 11%. Over a range of 0.1-30 mg/kg, p.o., EVP-6124 demonstrates proportional dose escalation. Tmax is at 4 h in plasma and 2 h brain, although the brain concentrations remained similar between 2 and 8 h. The B:P ratios are 1.7-5.1 between 1 and 8 h[1].Pharmacokinetic studies have shown that EVP-6124 (0.4 mg/kg, i.p.) reaches peak brain concentration 2 hr after administration and remains at effective concentrations for at least 4 hr. EVP-6124 is administered to WT mice at ZT0 (0.4 mg/kg i.p single dose) and significantly increases the saturation index of NMDARs in slices obtained 4 hr later without causing prolonged wakefulness or enhanced locomotor activity [2].

Protocol

Kinase Assay [1]
Binding or activity of EVP-6124 is measured at 10 μM in a selectivity panel according to standard validated protocols under conditions defined by the contractor. For the 5-HT2A receptor binding assay, membranes are prepared from HEK293 cellsexpressing the human recombinant 5-HT2A receptor. For 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C receptor binding assays, membranes are prepared from CHO cells expressing the human recombinant 5-HT2B or 5-HT2C receptor. Affinity is determined by incubating different concentrations of EVP-6124 in binding buffer for 1 h. For 5-HT2A binding, the incubation is at 22°C in the presence of 0.5 nM [3H]-ketanserin; for 5-HT2B, at 22°C in the presence of 2 nM [3H]-mesulergine; and for 5-HT2C, at 37°C in the presence of 1 nM [3H]-mesulergine. Nonspecific binding is determined in the presence of 1 μM ketanserin, 10 μM mesulergine, or 10 μM RS-102221 for 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, or 5-HT2C, respectively. All measurements are performed in triplicate. EVP-6124 is also tested in the 5-HT2B rat gastric fundus tissue response assay. Briefly, inhibition of α-methyl serotonin-induced contraction is isometrically measured. All measurements are performed in duplicate[1].

Animal Administration [1][2]
Rats[1] Twenty-four 2.5-month-old male Wistar rats (average body weight: 329 g) are used. Before testing EVP-6124, the effects of scopolamine alone at 0.03, 0.1, or 0.3 mg/kg, i.p. in the ORT are determined (n=8 per treatment). Scopolamine (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) injected 30 min before T1 resulted in a robust deficit at T2 when a 1 h interval is used. The d2 index is not significantly different from the chance level of performance; and there are no changes in exploratory behavior for 0.1 mg/kg, i.p. of scopolamine compared with saline. Subsequently, the ability of EVP-6124 to reverse the memory impairment induced by 0.1 mg/kg of scopolamine is tested. First, scopolamine and then EVP-6124 (0.03, 0.1, 0.3, and 1.0 mg/kg, p.o.) are administered 30 min before T1. For the control treatments, animals received either deionized water (p.o.) plus saline (i.p.) or deionized water (p.o.) plus 0.1 mg/kg scopolamine (i.p.).Mice[2] Adult male mice (3-6 months old) are used throughout this study. EVP-6124 is injected i.p. (0.4 mg/kg) at Zeitgeber time (ZT0) in awake mice (9 mice total for this experiment), in the animal facility. Mice are then immediately returned to their home cage with their siblings and left undisturbed for 4 hr (ZT4). During this time, they are closely monitored to check for possible behavioral effects of EVP-6124 injection. All of the 9 injected mice nested and are immobile in the hour following the injection.

Background on EVP-6124

EVP-6124 is a partial agonist of α7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) that was proved high-affinity in vitro and in vivo. [1]

EVP-6124 was proved to show selectivity for α7 but low-affinity of α4β2 nAChRs in some binding and functional experiments. EVP-6124 had good brain penetration and an adequate exposure time. [1,2]

Co-administration of EVP-6124 and the selective nAChRs antagonist could contribute to the release of DA, ACH, and Glu. This could be used to treat cognitive impairment and possibly other dimensions of psychopathology. Co-administration of donepezil at 0.1 mg/kg, p.o. and EVP-6124 at 0.03 mg/kg proved to be fully restored memory while each of these did not improve memory in this task. [1] Pretreatment with the selective α7 nAChR antagonist, methyllycaconitine (MLA, 1.0 mg/kg), significantly blocked cortical DA and Glu efflux induced by EVP-6124 (0.1 mg/kg). [2,3]

Safety and clinical effects of EVP-6124 in subjects with Alzheimer's disease currently or previously receiving an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor medication.[Pubmed:25495510]

Expert Rev Neurother. 2015 Jan;15(1):7-17.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prevalent and currently incurable brain disease whose impact will continue to rise as the population ages. With limited treatment options, a variety of experimental therapies are currently in clinical trials. EVP-6124 (encenicline) is an alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor partial agonist under investigation for the symptomatic treatment of AD. EVP-6124 activates the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor at low nanomolar brain concentrations and improves memory performance in rats. Treatment with EVP-6124 in Phase I and II trials involving patients with mild-to-moderate AD was well tolerated and showed statistically significant improvements compared with placebo on cognitive and functional measures. Two Phase III trials under the title COGNITIV AD will assess the efficacy and tolerability of EVP-6124 in patients with mild-to-moderate AD. Based on the completed clinical trials and proposed mechanism of action, EVP-6124 would appear to be a good candidate for therapy in combination with cholinesterase inhibitors.

Continuous infusion of the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist EVP-6124 produces no signs of tolerance at memory-enhancing doses in rats: a pharmacokinetic and behavioral study.[Pubmed:25794332]

Behav Pharmacol. 2015 Jun;26(4):403-6.

We investigated whether the effects of acutely administered EVP-6124, an alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (alpha7 nAChR) agonist, on cognition were maintained after 6-day continuous minipump administration. Performance in a delay-dependent forgetting test was measured in the object recognition task after single-oral doses of 0.3 or 1 mg/kg, or at plasma steady-state concentrations (Css) of 0.6 or 2 ng/ml, which were similar to the efficacious plasma concentrations after single-oral dosing. The 0.3 mg/kg acute dose enhanced memory at a total plasma concentration of approximately 0.3 ng/ml at 1-4 h after dosing. Continuous treatment produced total plasma Css values of 0.48 and 1.93 ng/ml on day 6 and enhanced memory. At EVP-6124 plasma concentrations that optimally enhance memory in the object recognition task, tolerance did not develop after 6 days of continuous treatment.

The role of proof of concept (POC) studies in drug development using the EVP-6124 POC study as an example.[Pubmed:24419310]

J Psychiatr Pract. 2014 Jan;20(1):59-60.

The goal of early proof of concept studies, typically involving a small number of subjects and more latitude in statistical requirements, is to provide evidence that a drug is likely to be successful in later stages of drug development. Although often not published, such studies allow drug developers to make "Go/No Go" decisions about proceeding with larger, more expensive studies.

The novel alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist EVP-6124 enhances dopamine, acetylcholine, and glutamate efflux in rat cortex and nucleus accumbens.[Pubmed:24810107]

Psychopharmacology (Berl). 2014 Dec;231(23):4541-51.

BACKGROUND: Alpha7 and alpha4beta2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists have been shown to improve cognition in various animal models of cognitive impairment and are of interest as treatments for schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, and other cognitive disorders. Increased release of dopamine (DA), acetylcholine (ACh), glutamate (Glu), and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and nucleus accumbens (NAC) has been suggested to contribute to their beneficial effects on cognition. RESULTS: Using in vivo microdialysis, we found that EVP-6124 [(R)-7-chloro-N-quinuclidin-3-yl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide], a high-affinity alpha7 nAChR partial agonist, at 0.1 mg/kg, s.c., increased DA efflux in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and NAC. EVP-6124, 0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg, also increased efflux of ACh in the mPFC but not in the NAC. Similarly, EVP-6124, 0.1 mg/kg, but not 0.03 and 0.3 mg/kg, significantly increased mPFC Glu efflux. Thus, EVP-6124 produced an inverted U-shaped curve for DA and Glu release, as previously reported for other alpha7 nAChR agonists. The three doses of EVP-6124 did not produce a significant effect on GABA efflux in either region. Pretreatment with the selective alpha7 nAChR antagonist, methyllycaconitine (MLA, 1.0 mg/kg), significantly blocked cortical DA and Glu efflux induced by EVP-6124 (0.1 mg/kg), suggesting that the effects of EVP-6124 on these neurotransmitters were due to alpha7 nAChR agonism. MLA only partially blocked the effects of EVP-6124 on ACh efflux in the mPFC. CONCLUSION: These results suggest increased cortical DA, ACh, and Glu release, which may contribute to the ability of the alpha7 nAChR agonist, EVP-6124, to treat cognitive impairment and possibly other dimensions of psychopathology.
