First-in-Human, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of TQ-F3083, a New Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitor, in Healthy Chinese Adults.

ABSTRACT: Background: As a novel dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, TQ-F3083 represents a promising new drug for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This phase I, first-in-human study evaluated the tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of TQ-F3083 in healthy Chinese adults. Methods: Sixty healthy participants total were enrolled in the single-ascending dose, multiple-dose, and food-effect studies. Safety endpoints included adverse events (AEs), vital signs, 12-lead electrocardiogram, abdominal ultrasound, chest X-ray, physical examination, and clinical laboratory tests. Blood, urine, and feces samples were collected for pharmacokinetic analyses. Pharmacodynamic parameters were evaluated based on DPP-4 activity and the active glucagon-like peptide-1 concentration. Results: In total, 22 treatment-related AEs, mostly grade 1 or 2, were reported in 14 individuals. No deaths, serious AEs, or grade ≥4 AEs occurred, and no dose-dependent AEs were demonstrated. For pharmacokinetic characteristics, dose linearity was analyzed using power model. The slopes (90% CIs) were 1.08 (1.02-1.13) and 1.05 (0.99-1.11) for AUC_0-t and AUC_0-∞, suggesting liner pharmacokinetic characteristic after oral dose TQ-F3083 from 2 to 160 mg. The accumulation factor was 1.39 after multiple dose for 7 days. Decreased plasma exposure (84.87% decrease in C_max, 49.23% in AUC_0-t, and 47.77% in AUC_0-∞) was observed with administration after a high-fat and high-calorie standardized breakfast. The 0-72 h TQ-F3083 excretion recovery percentages were 7.84% in urine and 5.76% in feces. Over 80% DPP-4 inhibition for 24 h was observed in the 20-160 mg cohorts, and the model-estimated 50% effective concentration was 1.10 ng/ml. The concentration of active glucagon-like peptide-1 increased after TQ-F3083 administration, but no obvious dose dependency was observed. Conclusion: TQ-F3083 was well tolerated in healthy Chinese adults, and the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics support further evaluation of TQ-F3083 in a trial in T2DM patients.

Project description:Background Neutrophil serine proteases are involved in the pathogenesis of COVID-19 and increased serine protease activity has been reported in severe and fatal infection. We investigated whether brensocatib, an inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase-1 (DPP-1; an enzyme responsible for the activation of neutrophil serine proteases), would improve outcomes in patients hospitalised with COVID-19. Methods In a multicentre, double-blind, randomised, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial, across 14 hospitals in the UK, patients aged 16 years and older who were hospitalised with COVID-19 and had at least one risk factor for severe disease were randomly assigned 1:1, within 96 h of hospital admission, to once-daily brensocatib 25 mg or placebo orally for 28 days. Patients were randomly assigned via a central web-based randomisation system (TruST). Randomisation was stratified by site and age (65 years or ≥65 years), and within each stratum, blocks were of random sizes of two, four, or six patients. Participants in both groups continued to receive other therapies required to manage their condition. Participants, study staff, and investigators were masked to the study assignment. The primary outcome was the 7-point WHO ordinal scale for clinical status at day 29 after random assignment. The intention-to-treat population included all patients who were randomly assigned and met the enrolment criteria. The safety population included all participants who received at least one dose of study medication. This study was registered with the ISRCTN registry, ISRCTN30564012. Findings Between June 5, 2020, and Jan 25, 2021, 406 patients were randomly assigned to brensocatib or placebo; 192 (47·3%) to the brensocatib group and 214 (52·7%) to the placebo group. Two participants were excluded after being randomly assigned in the brensocatib group (214 patients included in the placebo group and 190 included in the brensocatib group in the intention-to-treat population). Primary outcome data was unavailable for six patients (three in the brensocatib group and three in the placebo group). Patients in the brensocatib group had worse clinical status at day 29 after being randomly assigned than those in the placebo group (adjusted odds ratio 0·72 [95% CI 0·57–0·92]). Prespecified subgroup analyses of the primary outcome supported the primary results. 185 participants reported at least one adverse event; 99 (46%) in the placebo group and 86 (45%) in the brensocatib group. The most common adverse events were gastrointestinal disorders and infections. One death in the placebo group was judged as possibly related to study drug. Interpretation Brensocatib treatment did not improve clinical status at day 29 in patients hospitalised with COVID-19.

Project description:Ibrexafungerp (code name in China: HS-10366) is a first-in-class and orally active triterpenoid antifungal agent with broad antifungal activity against Candida spp., Aspergillus spp., and other fungal pathogens. It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis. The study aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of oral ibrexafungerp in healthy Chinese adults. A single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled single ascending dose (SAD, n = 42), and multiple ascending dose (MAD, n = 28) study was conducted in healthy Chinese subjects from March to October 2022. There were three cohorts in the SAD stage (300, 600, and 1,500 mg) and two cohorts in the MAD stage [450 mg once daily (QD) for 7 days; a loading dose of 750 mg twice daily (BID) for the first 2 days followed by a maintenance dose of 750 mg QD for consecutive 5 days]. Eligible participants in each cohort were randomly assigned in a 6:1 ratio to receive either ibrexafungerp or placebo orally. The primary objectives were to evaluate the safety and tolerability. The secondary objective was to evaluate PK parameters, including Cmax, AUC, and t1/2. A total of 70 healthy Chinese subjects were enrolled in the study. The mean (SD) age was 29.0 (6.32), and 55.7% were male. All treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild or moderate. There were no serious adverse events, and no subjects were discontinued from the study due to TEAEs. All TEAEs were recovered or resolved. The most common TEAEs were diarrhea, abdominal pain, and nausea. In the SAD stage, Cmax, and AUC increased in an approximately dose-proportional manner in the dose range of 300-1,500 mg. The mean t1/2 was within 18.29-21.30 hours. In the MAD stage, an accumulation of exposure (Cmax and AUC) was observed following multiple doses. This phase 1 study demonstrates a favorable safety, tolerability, and PK profile of ibrexafungerp in healthy Chinese subjects.

Project description:Evogliptin (DA-1229) is a novel, potent, and selective dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitor in clinical development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles and tolerability of evogliptin after repeated oral administration in healthy subjects.A block-randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose, dose-escalation study was performed in a total of 30 subjects. Repeated once-daily doses of 5, 10, or 20 mg evogliptin or the same doses of placebo were orally administered to ten subjects in each dosage group for 10 days. Subjects in each group were randomized to receive evogliptin or placebo with a ratio of 8:2. Pharmacokinetics of evogliptin were evaluated, with its concentrations in serial plasma and urine samples collected following the first and last administrations. DPP-IV activity and glucagon-like peptide-1, glucose, and insulin levels were quantified to evaluate evogliptin's pharmacodynamics on the first and last dosing days.All participants completed the study without any serious or severe adverse event. The evogliptin plasma concentration reached its peak within 4-5 hours and decreased relatively slowly, with a terminal elimination half-life of 33-39 hours. Repeated administration resulted in a 1.4- to 1.5-fold accumulation. Evogliptin's systemic exposure and inhibition of plasma DPP-IV activity increased in a dose-dependent manner. Inhibition of DPP-IV activity >80% was sustained over 24 hours in all evogliptin dose groups and provided an increase in postprandial active glucagon-like peptide-1 levels by 1.5- to 2.4-fold. Postprandial glucose levels in the evogliptin-treated groups were reduced 20%-35% compared to placebo, but were not accompanied by increased insulin levels.Repeated administration of evogliptin in healthy subjects was well tolerated and exhibited linear pharmacokinetics within the 5-20 mg dose range. A once-daily regimen of 5-20 mg evogliptin effectively inhibited DPP-IV activity.

Project description:Angioedema is a potentially life-threatening adverse effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. Bradykinin and substance P, substrates of angiotensin-converting enzyme, increase vascular permeability and cause tissue edema in animals. Studies indicate that amino-terminal degradation of these peptides, by aminopeptidase P and dipeptidyl peptidase IV, may be impaired in individuals with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-associated angioedema. This case-control study tested the hypothesis that dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity and antigen are decreased in sera of patients with a history of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-associated angioedema. Fifty subjects with a history of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-associated angioedema and 176 angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-exposed control subjects were ascertained. Sera were assayed for angiotensin-converting enzyme activity, aminopeptidase P activity, aminopeptidase N activity, dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity, and antigen and the ex vivo degradation half-lives of bradykinin, des-Arg(9)-bradykinin, and substance P in a subset. The prevalence of smoking was increased and of diabetes decreased in case versus control subjects. Overall, dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity (26.6+/-7.8 versus 29.6+/-7.3 nmol/mL per minute; P=0.026) and antigen (465.8+/-260.8 versus 563.1+/-208.6 ng/mL; P=0.017) were decreased in sera from individuals with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-associated angioedema compared with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-exposed control subjects without angioedema. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity (21.5+/-4.9 versus 29.8+/-6.7 nmol/mL per minute; P=0.001) and antigen (354.4+/-124.7 versus 559.8+/-163.2 ng/mL; P=0.003) were decreased in sera from cases collected during angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition but not in the absence of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition. The degradation half-life of substance P correlated inversely with dipeptidyl peptidase IV antigen during angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition. Environmental or genetic factors that reduce dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity may predispose individuals to angioedema.
