Open-label, single-center, phase I trial to investigate the mass balance and absolute bioavailability of the highly selective oral MET inhibitor tepotinib in healthy volunteers.

ABSTRACT: Tepotinib (MSC2156119J) is an oral, potent, highly selective MET inhibitor. This open-label, phase I study in healthy volunteers (EudraCT 2013-003226-86) investigated its mass balance (part A) and absolute bioavailability (part B). In part A, six participants received tepotinib orally (498 mg spiked with 2.67 MBq [14C]-tepotinib). Blood, plasma, urine, and feces were collected up to day 25 or until excretion of radioactivity was <1% of the administered dose. In part B, six participants received 500 mg tepotinib orally as a film-coated tablet, followed by an intravenous [14C]-tepotinib tracer dose (53-54 kBq) 4 h later. Blood samples were collected until day 14. In part A, a median of 92.5% (range, 87.1-96.9%) of the [14C]-tepotinib dose was recovered in excreta. Radioactivity was mainly excreted via feces (median, 78.7%; range, 69.4-82.5%). Urinary excretion was a minor route of elimination (median, 14.4% [8.8-17.7%]). Parent compound was the main constituent in excreta (45% [feces] and 7% [urine] of the radioactive dose). M506 was the only major metabolite. In part B, absolute bioavailability was 72% (range, 62-81%) after oral administration of 500 mg tablets (the dose and formulation used in phase II trials). In conclusion, tepotinib and its metabolites are mainly excreted via feces; parent drug is the major eliminated constituent. Oral bioavailability of tepotinib is high, supporting the use of the current tablet formulation in clinical trials. Tepotinib was well tolerated in this study with healthy volunteers.

Project description:IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the absolute bioavailability (BA) of AG-221 following a single oral dose of 100 mg AG-221 and an intravenous (IV) dose of ~ 100 μg AG-221 containing approximately 300 nCi of [14C]-AG-221.MethodsThis was a phase 1, open-label study. Six subjects who met all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria were enrolled in the study. After an overnight fast of at least 10 h, the subjects received an oral dose (coated tablet) of 100 mg of AG-221 at 0 h on dosing day. Four hours after the oral dose, the subjects received 100 μg AG-221 containing ~ 300 nCi of [14C]-AG-221 administered as an IV bolus. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for plasma concentrations of AG-221 and [14C]-AG-221 using a validated liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) system and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fractionation followed by accelerator mass spectrometry analysis (AMS), respectively. Safety was evaluated throughout the study.ResultsThe absolute BA after a 100-mg oral dose of AG-221 was measured as 57.2%. While the total clearance was 1.37 L/h, ~ 1/60 of the liver blood flow in a typical 70-kg human subject, the first-pass extraction was estimated to be less than 2%, assuming that the total clearance was entirely due to liver metabolism. Thus, the fraction of the AG-221 dose absorbed was at least 50%. AG-221 was safe and well tolerated when given under fasted conditions in a single 100-mg dose as a coated tablet with a microtracer [14C]-AG-221 solution, as few drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported. No clinically significant changes or findings were noted in the clinical laboratory evaluations, vital sign measurements, and electrocardiograms (ECGs) performed during this study.ConclusionsIn healthy subjects under fasting conditions, the absolute BA following oral administration of a 100-mg AG-221 tablet was 57.2%. AG-221 was safe and well tolerated in healthy male subjects when administered as a single 100-mg film-coated tablet plus 100 µg [14C]-AG-221 given intravenously.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT02443168.FundingCelgene Corporation.
