Comparative plasma and tissue distribution of Sun Pharma's generic doxorubicin HCl liposome injection versus Caelyx((R)) (doxorubicin HCl liposome injection) in syngeneic fibrosarcoma-bearing BALB/c mice and Sprague-Dawley rats.[Pubmed:28349166]

Cancer Chemother Pharmacol. 2017 May;79(5):899-913.

PURPOSE: The liposomal formulation of doxorubicin [doxorubicin (DXR) hydrochloride (HCl) liposome injection, Caelyx((R))] alters the tissue distribution of DXR as compared with nonliposomal DXR, resulting in an improved benefit-risk profile. We conducted studies in murine models to compare the plasma and tissue distribution of a proposed generic DXR HCl liposome injection developed by Sun Pharmaceuticals Industries Limited (SPIL DXR HCl liposome injection) with Caelyx((R)). METHODS: The plasma and tissue distributions of the SPIL and reference DXR HCl liposome injections were compared in syngeneic fibrosarcoma-bearing BALB/c mice and Sprague-Dawley rats. Different batches and different lots of the same batch of the reference product were also compared with each other. RESULTS: The SPIL and reference DXR HCl liposome injections exhibited generally comparable plasma and tissue distribution profiles in both models. While minor differences were observed between the two products in some tissues, different batches and lots of the reference product also showed some differences in the distribution of various analytes in some tissues. The ratios of estimated free to encapsulated DXR for plasma and tissue were generally comparable between the SPIL and reference DXR HCl liposome injections in both models, indicating similar extents of absorption into the tissues and similar rates of drug release from liposomes. CONCLUSIONS: The plasma and tissue distribution profiles of the SPIL and reference DXR HCl liposome injections were shown to be generally comparable. Inconsistencies between the products observed in some tissues were thought to be due to biological variation.

A global coupled cluster potential energy surface for HCl + OH <--> Cl + H2O.[Pubmed:28327711]

Phys Chem Chem Phys. 2017 Apr 12;19(15):9770-9777.

A new and more accurate full-dimensional global potential energy surface (PES) for the ground electronic state of the ClH2O system is developed by fitting 15 777 points obtained using an explicitly correlated unrestricted coupled-cluster method with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (UCCSD(T)-F12b). The fitting is carried out using the permutation invariant polynomial-neural network (PIP-NN) method and has an error of 6.9 meV. The new PES has a slightly lower barrier for the atmospherically important HCl + OH --> Cl + H2O reaction than the previous PES based on multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI) calculations. As a result, it should provide a better characterization of the kinetics. Quantum dynamical calculations of reaction probabilities for both the forward and reverse reactions are performed on this new PES and compared with those on the MRCI PES. They reveal notable differences, resulting apparently from subtle differences in the PESs.

The risk reduction of recurrent periodontal pathogens of local application minocycline HCl 2% gel, used as an adjunct to scaling and root planing for chronic periodontitis treatment.[Pubmed:28331333]

Ther Clin Risk Manag. 2017 Mar 10;13:307-314.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and microbiological effects of local application minocycline HCl 2% gel, used as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) for treatment of chronic periodontitis (CP). CP is an inflammation of periodontal tissue that is caused mainly by bacterial infection, where periodontal destruction such as loss of attachment and bone destruction occurred. METHODS: A total of 81 subjects with moderate to severe periodontitis whose baseline clinical attachment loss (CAL) was >/=4 mm were randomly assigned to receive SRP alone (control group, N=39) or SRP followed by four times of local application of minocycline HCl gel (Periocline) once a week (test group, N=42). Pocket depth, CAL, and papilla bleeding index were examined at baseline, 21 days, 2, 3, and 6 months. Subgingival plaque samples were collected with sterile curettes and were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction for the presence of three periodontal pathogens (Porphyromonas gingivalis [P.g.], Tannerella forsythia [T.f.], and Treponema denticola [T.d.]) at baseline, 2, 3, and 6 months. RESULTS: The number of bacteria was reduced in both groups at 2 months after baseline (SRP treatment). The changes (2-6 months) in T.d. and T.f. counts in the test group were significantly lower than those in the control group. In the control group, a significant regrowth of P.g., T.f., and T.d. was observed from 2 to 6 months and of P.g. and T.f. from 3 to 6 months. On the other hand, in the test group, the number of the three bacteria did not significantly increase during the 6-month period. CONCLUSION: The results showed that local application of minocycline, used as an adjunct to SRP, was effective for suppressing regrowth of periodontal pathogens, suggesting its risk reduction of recurrent periodontal pathogens in CP.

Duvoglustat HCl Increases Systemic and Tissue Exposure of Active Acid alpha-Glucosidase in Pompe Patients Co-administered with Alglucosidase alpha.[Pubmed:28341561]

Mol Ther. 2017 May 3;25(5):1199-1208.

Duvoglustat HCl (AT2220, 1-deoxynojirimycin) is an investigational pharmacological chaperone for the treatment of acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) deficiency, which leads to the lysosomal storage disorder Pompe disease, which is characterized by progressive accumulation of lysosomal glycogen primarily in heart and skeletal muscles. The current standard of care is enzyme replacement therapy with recombinant human GAA (alglucosidase alfa [AA], Genzyme). Based on preclinical data, oral co-administration of duvoglustat HCl with AA increases exposure of active levels in plasma and skeletal muscles, leading to greater substrate reduction in muscle. This phase 2a study consisted of an open-label, fixed-treatment sequence that evaluated the effect of single oral doses of 50 mg, 100 mg, 250 mg, or 600 mg duvoglustat HCl on the pharmacokinetics and tissue levels of intravenously infused AA (20 mg/kg) in Pompe patients. AA alone resulted in increases in total GAA activity and protein in plasma compared to baseline. Following co-administration with duvoglustat HCl, total GAA activity and protein in plasma were further increased 1.2- to 2.8-fold compared to AA alone in all 25 Pompe patients; importantly, muscle GAA activity was increased for all co-administration treatments from day 3 biopsy specimens. No duvoglustat-related adverse events or drug-related tolerability issues were identified.

Negative and positive allosteric modulators of the P2X(7) receptor.[Pubmed:18071294]

Br J Pharmacol. 2008 Feb;153(4):737-50.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Antagonist effects at the P2X(7) receptor are complex with many behaving in a non-competitive manner. In this study, the effects of N-[2-({2-[(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)-5-quinolinyl]-2-tricyclo[3.3.1.1(3,7 )]dec-1-ylacetamide (compound-17) and N (2)-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-N (1)-[2-methyl-5-(1-piperazinylmethyl)phenyl]glycinamide dihydrochloride (GW791343) on P2X(7) receptors were examined and their mechanism of action explored. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Antagonist effects were studied by measuring agonist-stimulated ethidium accumulation in cells expressing human or rat recombinant P2X(7) receptors and in radioligand binding studies. KEY RESULTS: Compound-17 and GW791343 were non-competitive inhibitors of human P2X(7) receptors. Receptor protection studies using decavanadate and pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid (PPADS) showed that neither compound-17 nor GW791343 competitively interacted at the ATP binding site and so were probably negative allosteric modulators of the P2X(7) receptor. GW791343 prevented the slowly reversible blockade of the human P2X(7) receptor produced by compound-17 and inhibited [(3)H]-compound-17 binding to the P2X(7) receptor suggesting they may bind to similar or interacting sites. At rat P2X(7) receptors, compound-17 was a negative allosteric modulator but the predominant effect of GW791343 was to increase agonist responses. Antagonist interaction and radioligand binding studies revealed that GW791343 did not interact at the ATP binding site but did interact with the compound-17 binding site suggesting that GW791343 is a positive allosteric modulator of the rat P2X(7) receptor. CONCLUSIONS: Compound-17 was a negative allosteric modulator of human and rat P2X(7) receptors. GW791343 was a negative allosteric modulator of the human P2X(7) receptor but at the rat P2X(7) receptor its predominant effect was positive allosteric modulation. These compounds should provide valuable tools for mechanistic studies on P2X(7) receptors.

Identification of regions of the P2X(7) receptor that contribute to human and rat species differences in antagonist effects.[Pubmed:18660826]

Br J Pharmacol. 2008 Nov;155(5):738-51.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Several P2X(7) receptor antagonists are allosteric inhibitors and exhibit species difference in potency. Furthermore, N(2)-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-N(1)-(2-methyl-5-(1-piperazinylmethyl)phenyl)glycinamid e dihydrochloride (GW791343) exhibits negative allosteric effects at the human P2X(7) receptor but is a positive allosteric modulator of the rat P2X(7) receptor. In this study we have identified several regions of the P2X(7) receptor that contribute to the species differences in antagonist effects. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Chimeric human-rat P2X(7) receptors were constructed with regions of the rat receptor being inserted into the human receptor. Antagonist effects at these receptors were measured in ethidium accumulation and radioligand binding studies. KEY RESULTS: Exchanging regions of the P2X(7) receptor close to transmembrane domain 1 modified the effects of KN62, 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(4-methylsulphinylphenyl)-5-(4-pyridyl)1H-imidazole (SB203580) and GW791343. Further studies, in which single amino acids were exchanged, identified amino acid 95 as being primarily responsible for the differential allosteric effects of GW791343 and, to varying degrees, the species differences in potency of SB203580 and KN62. The species selectivity of pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid was affected by multiple regions of the receptor, with potency being particularly affected by the amino acid 126 but not by amino acid 95. A further region of the rat receptor (amino acids 154-183) was identified that, when inserted into the corresponding position in the human receptor, increased ATP potency 10-fold. CONCLUSIONS: This study has identified several key residues responsible for the species differences in antagonist effects at the P2X(7) receptor and also identified a further region of the P2X(7) receptor that can significantly affect agonist potency at the P2X(7) receptor.
