Tolvaptan is an orally active vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist and used for the treatment of volume overload in some disease as an aquaretic. Tolvaptan sodium phosphate (OPC-61815) is a pro-drug of tolvaptan that was designed to improve water solubility and enable intravenous use. The conversion of OPC-61815 to tolvaptan was evaluated for in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies. The pharmacodynamics of OPC-61815 were evaluated for in vitro receptor binding affinity, in vivo aquaretic and anti-edematous action. The solubility of OPC-61815 in water at 25 °C was 72.4 mg/mL and more than 100,000 times the solubility of tolvaptan. OPC-61815 was hydrolyzed to tolvaptan by human tissue S9 fractions and main enzyme of hydrolysis was alkaline phosphatase. After intravenous administration of OPC-61815 to rats and dogs, tolvaptan was detected in plasma within 5 min and the bioavailability of tolvaptan was 57.7% and 50.9%, respectively. Binding affinity of OPC-61815 for the human V2 receptor was 1/14 weaker than that of tolvaptan. OPC-61815 exerted dose-dependent aquaretic action in rats and dogs and a corresponding anti-edematous action in rat edema models. These results suggest that OPC-61815, a water-soluble phosphate ester pro-drug of tolvaptan, is an effective aquaretic by converting to tolvaptan after intravenous administration.
