RESUMEN
1. ETX0914 is a novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitor that has a novel mode-of-inhibition and is in clinical development for the treatment of infections caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. 2. The in vitro biotransformation studies of ETX0914 using mouse, rat, dog and human hepatocytes showed moderate intrinsic clearance in mouse and rat and low intrinsic clearance in dog and human. 3. Following intravenous administration of [14C]-ETX0914 in rats, the mean recovery of administered dose in urine, bile and feces was approximately 15%, 55% and 24%, respectively. Unchanged ETX0914 recovered in urine and bile was less than 5% of the dose, indicating that ETX0914 underwent extensive metabolism in rats. Metabolites M1, M2, M4, M6 and M12 detected in both rat and mouse urine samples were not detected in mouse urine when predosed with 1-aminobenzotriazole, indicating that these metabolites were cytochrome P450 mediated products. The major fecal metabolites observed in rats were not formed when ETX0914 was incubated with fresh feces from germ free rats under sterile condition or in incubations with rat intestinal microsome and cytosol, suggesting that most likely ETX0914 was directly excreted into gut lumen where metabolites were formed as intestinal microflora-mediated products. The major sites of metabolism by CYP enzymes were in the morpholine and oxazolidinone rings while it was benzisoxazole reduction with the gut microflora.

1. The disposition of tanzisertib [(1S,4R)-4-(9-((S)tetrahydrofuran-3-yl)-8-(2,4,6-trifluorophenylamino)-9H-purin-2-ylamino) cyclohexanol], a potent, orally active c-Jun amino-terminal kinase inhibitor intended for treatment of fibrotic diseases was studied in rats, dogs and humans following a single oral dose of [(14)C]tanzisertib (Independent Investigational Review Board Inc., Plantation, FL). 2. Administered dose was quantitatively recovered in all species and feces/bile was the major route of elimination. Tanzisertib was rapidly absorbed (Tmax: 1-2 h) across all species with unchanged tanzisertib representing >83% of plasma radioactivity in dogs and humans, whereas <34% was observed in rats. Variable amounts of unchanged tanzisertib (1.5-32% of dose) was recovered in urine/feces across all species, the highest in human feces. 3. Metabolic profiling revealed that tanzisertib was primarily metabolized via oxidation and conjugation pathways, but extensively metabolized in rats relative to dogs/humans. CC-418424 (S-cis isomer of tanzisertib) was the major plasma metabolite in rats (38.4-46.4% of plasma radioactivity), while the predominant plasma metabolite in humans and dogs was M18 (tanzisertib-/CC-418424 glucuronide), representing 7.7 and 3.2% of plasma radioactivity, respectively. Prevalent biliary metabolite in rats and dogs, M18 represented 16.8 and 17.1% of dose, respectively. 4. In vitro studies using liver subcellular fractions and expressed enzymes characterized involvement of novel human aldo-keto reductases for oxido-reduction and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases for conjugation pathways.

INTRODUCTION: Biliary excretion can modulate the pharmacokinetic profile of drug candidates, and may represent a liability for drug-drug interactions. This study proposes a strategy to reduce biliary clearance using the efflux ratio in Caco-2 cells in parallel to an abbreviated pharmacokinetic study in bile duct-cannulated rats (BDC). METHODS: Apical to basolateral (A to B) and basolateral to apical (B to A) permeability of 20 new chemical entities (NCEs) were determined in a 24-well permeability assay. In parallel, biliary excretion was determined in an abbreviated format in BDC rats. Test compounds were administered via an intravenous dose of 1 mg/kg and the percentage (%) of parent compound excreted in the bile in the first 3 hours after dosing was determined by LC-MS/MS analysis. RESULTS: A reasonably good correlation (r(2)=0.635) between the in vitro efflux ratio from the Caco-2 assay and in vivo biliary excretion of parent compound in BDC rats was observed. All seven compounds with an efflux ratio of <5 had less than 25% of the parent excreted in rat bile. In contrast, 3 out of the 13 compounds with an efflux ratio >5 had less than 25% of the dose excreted in rat bile. DISCUSSION: This suggests that a compound with an efflux ratio of <5 is at lower risk of having significant biliary clearance and that Caco-2 efflux ratio obtained from a high throughput screening assay may be used as an early indicator of biliary excretion. Although, we propose to reduce the occurrence of false positive prediction for biliary clearance (23%) by performing abbreviated PK in BDC rats for compounds with high efflux ratio.
