Pharmacokinetics, Biotransformation, and Excretion of [14C]Etelcalcetide (AMG 416) Following a Single Microtracer Intravenous Dose in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease on Hemodialysis.

ABSTRACT: Etelcalcetide (AMG 416) is a novel synthetic peptide calcium-sensing receptor activator in clinical development as an intravenous calcimimetic for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis. Etelcalcetide is composed of seven D-aminoacids with an L-cysteine linked to a D-cysteine by a disulfide bond. A single intravenous dose of [14C]etelcalcetide (10 mg; 26.3 kBq; 710 nCi) was administered to patients with CKD on hemodialysis to elucidate the pharmacokinetics, biotransformation, and excretion of etelcalcetide in this setting. Blood, dialysate, urine, and feces were collected to characterize the pharmacokinetics, biotransformation product profiles, mass balance, and formation of anti-etelcalcetide antibodies. Accelerator mass spectrometry was necessary to measure the microtracer quantities of C-14 excreted in the large volumes of dialysate and other biomatrices. An estimated 67 % of the [14C]etelcalcetide dose was recovered in dialysate, urine, and feces 176 days after dose administration. Etelcalcetide was primarily cleared by hemodialysis, with approximately 60 % of the administered dose eliminated in dialysate. Minor excretion was observed in urine and feces. Biotransformation resulted from disulfide exchange with endogenous thiols, and preserved the etelcalcetide D-amino acid backbone. Drug-related radioactivity circulated primarily as serum albumin peptide conjugate (SAPC). Following removal of plasma etelcalcetide by hemodialysis, re-equilibration occurred between SAPC and L-cysteine present in blood to partially restore the etelcalcetide plasma concentrations between dialysis sessions. No unanticipated safety signals or anti-etelcalcetide or anti-SAPC antibodies were detected.

Project description:Background and objectiveDifelikefalin, a selective kappa-opioid receptor agonist, is the first approved treatment for moderate-to-severe pruritus in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (HD) in the USA and Europe. The purpose of this open-label study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics and disposition of [14C]difelikefalin following a single intravenous dose in subjects with normal renal function and subjects on HD.MethodsTwelve adult males (n = 6 healthy subjects; n = 6 subjects on HD) received single intravenous doses of [14C]difelikefalin containing 100 µCi (total doses of 1.7-3.0 μg/kg difelikefalin). Blood, urine, feces, and dialysate samples (when applicable) were collected after dosing.ResultsThe median time to maximum concentration was similar for HD and healthy subjects, occurring at 5 min post-dose. The mean area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) was approximately 11-fold higher in HD versus healthy subjects; mean plasma half-life was 38.0 h and 2.6 h, respectively. In healthy subjects, 80.5% of the dose was recovered in urine, and 11.3% was recovered in feces. In subjects on HD, 58.8% of the dose was recovered in feces, and 19.5% was recovered in dialysate [for subjects on HD with residual kidney function (n = 3), 11.2% was recovered in urine]. Based on plasma AUClast, parent [14C]difelikefalin was the most abundant analyte in systemic circulation (> 99% of total exposure) for both cohorts. Metabolite profiles in urine and feces suggested minimal metabolism of the parent compound.ConclusionIn subjects on HD, difelikefalin total exposure was higher and plasma half-life was longer compared with subjects with intact renal function. Metabolism was low in both healthy subjects and subjects on HD, with unchanged drug representing > 99% of systemic circulation; however, the route of excretion was primarily into urine versus feces in healthy subjects, and feces versus dialysate in subjects on HD.RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT03947970.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:In-vitro data suggest that clearance of vilaprisan is mediated by cytochrome P450 3A4 (oxidation) and aldoketoreductases (reduction). To fully understand the elimination and biotransformation pathways of vilaprisan, a selective progesterone receptor modulator, and to quantify the impact of cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibition on the pharmacokinetics of vilaprisan, two clinical studies in healthy postmenopausal women were conducted. METHODS:In study 1, pharmacokinetics, mass balance, and metabolite patterns were determined after single oral administration of 5 mg of [14C]-labeled vilaprisan in six subjects. In study 2, pharmacokinetics were determined after single oral administration of 4 mg of vilaprisan without and with concomitant administration of the strong cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitor itraconazole (200 mg/day) in 14 subjects. In addition, a microtracer dose of vilaprisan was given intravenously to determine absolute bioavailability, clearance, and volume of distribution. RESULTS:The dominant single compound in plasma was vilaprisan. No plasma metabolites exceeding 10% of total drug-related area under the concentration-time curve were detected. The absolute oral bioavailability of vilaprisan was ~ 60%. The mean clearance was ~ 7 L/h and the volume of distribution at steady state was ~ 360 L. Excretion occurred primarily via feces (73.5 ± 3.70% of dose; urine: 13.1 ± 1.71%; total recovery: 86.6 ± 2.81%), mostly in a metabolized form. Only small amounts of the parent drug were found in excreta. When vilaprisan was administered together with itraconazole, exposure to vilaprisan was increased 6.2-fold (90% confidence interval 5.4-7.2). CONCLUSIONS:Vilaprisan is predominantly metabolized in the liver to a complex variety of metabolites, which are mainly excreted with feces. The pivotal role of cytochrome P450 3A4 in the metabolism of vilaprisan was confirmed.
