The pharmacokinetic profile of sitaxsentan, a selective endothelin receptor antagonist, in varying degrees of renal impairment.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the pharmacokinetic profile of a single 100-mg oral dose of sitaxsentan, a selective endothelin type A receptor antagonist, in subjects with normal and impaired renal function.This was an open label, single oral dose study in subjects with normal [creatinine clearance (CrCL) > or = 80 ml min(-1)] and impaired renal function (mild renal impairment CrCL 51-80 ml min(-1), moderate impairment CrCL 31-50 ml min(-1), severe impairment CrCL < or = 30 ml min(-1)). All subjects received a dose of 100 mg sitaxsentan.Twenty-four subjects were enrolled, six in each of the normal and three renal impairment groups. The mean plasma sitaxsentan concentrations were comparable across the groups, as were the mean values for C(max) (10.3-13.9 microg ml(-1)), AUC(infinity) (18.7-22.5 h microg(-1) ml(-1)), oral clearance (CL/F, 82.3-94.9 ml min(-1)), volume of distribution (Vz/F, 64.8-69.6 l) and elimination half-life (t(1/2), 8.6-9.6 h). There was substantial overlap among the four groups in the individual subject values for CL/F and Vz/F and no relationship between either of these parameters and CrCL.After a single 100-mg oral dose of sitaxsentan there were no differences in its pharmacokinetics among subjects with normal or impaired renal function.

Project description:Background and objectiveOmecamtiv mecarbil is a novel selective cardiac myosin activator (myotrope) under investigation for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The objective of this clinical study was to estimate the effect of varying degrees of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of omecamtiv mecarbil single dose (50 mg) under fasted conditions.MethodsThis phase I, open-label, non-randomized, parallel-group study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a single oral dose of omecamtiv mecarbil 50 mg in individuals with normal renal function or mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment, including end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis. Geometric least-squares mean ratios of maximum observed concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and 90% confidence intervals were derived for comparisons of renal impairment vs normal renal function. Participants were monitored for adverse events.ResultsThirty-one participants received treatment and completed the study. Geometric mean exposures were similar for participants with renal impairment (AUC∞ range, 2550-3220 h*ng/mL; Cmax range, 78.9-107 ng/mL) and participants with normal renal function (AUC∞, 2790 h*ng/mL; Cmax, 92.6 ng/mL), with geometric least-squares mean ratios of 85.2-125.9. Exposure was similar on dialysis vs non-dialysis days in participants with end-stage renal disease (AUC0-24, 1650 vs 1700 h*ng/mL; Cmax, 100.0 vs 107.0 ng/mL). Four participants (12.9%) reported four treatment-emergent adverse events. No deaths, treatment-emergent adverse events leading to discontinuation, or serious adverse events occurred.ConclusionsOmecamtiv mecarbil pharmacokinetics were not meaningfully affected by renal function or hemodialysis, suggesting the same dosing strategy can be used in individuals with normal renal function or renal impairment. Oral administration of omecamtiv mecarbil was not associated with major tolerability findings. This study supports omecamtiv mecarbil for the treatment of heart failure in individuals with or without renal impairment.

Project description:Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition with dapagliflozin decreases hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), body weight, BP, and albuminuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio). Dapagliflozin also modestly increases hematocrit, likely related to osmotic diuresis/natriuresis. Prior studies suggest that the HbA1c-lowering effects of dapagliflozin attenuate at lower eGFR. However, effects on other cardiovascular risk factors at different eGFR levels are incompletely understood.This pooled analysis of 11 phase 3 clinical trials assessed changes in HbA1c, body weight, BP, hematocrit, and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio with placebo (n=2178) or dapagliflozin 10 mg (n=2226) over 24 weeks in patients with type 2 diabetes according to baseline eGFR (eGFR?45 to <60 ml/min per 1.73 m2, eGFR?60 to <90 ml/min per 1.73 m2, and eGFR?90 ml/min per 1.73 m2).Compared with placebo, reductions in HbA1c with dapagliflozin were 0.6%, 0.5%, and 0.3%, respectively, for each consecutive lower eGFR subgroup (P value interaction <0.001). Effects of dapagliflozin on hematocrit, body weight, and BP were similar regardless of baseline eGFR, suggesting that effects potentially related to volume and natriuresis are eGFR independent. Moreover, among individuals with baseline urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio ?30 mg/g, placebo-adjusted reductions in urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio were larger in the lowest eGFR subgroup (P value interaction <0.001). Adverse events occurred more frequently in the lowest eGFR subgroup; this was true for both dapagliflozin- and placebo-treated patients.The HbA1c-lowering effects of dapagliflozin decrease as renal function declines. However, dapagliflozin consistently decreases body weight, BP, and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio regardless of eGFR. These effects in conjunction with the finding of similar effects on hematocrit, a proxy for volume contraction, suggest that the effects of dapagliflozin are partly mediated via nonglucosuric-dependent mechanisms.

Project description:The aim of this study was to investigate whether a dual endothelin receptor antagonist bosentan modulates the kinetics of bone marrow-derived stem cells in inhibiting the development of pulmonary hypertension. Bone marrow chimeric mice, transplanted with enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP)-positive bone marrow mononuclear cells, were exposed to hypobaric hypoxia or kept in the ambient air, and were daily treated with bosentan sodium salt or saline for 21 days. After the treatment period, right ventricular pressure was measured and pulmonary vascular morphometry was conducted. Incorporation of bone marrow-derived cells was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Gene expression and protein level in the lung tissue were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting, respectively. The results showed that, in hypoxic mice, right ventricular pressure and the percentage of muscularized vessel were increased and pulmonary vascular density was decreased, each of which was reversed by bosentan. Bone marrow-derived endothelial cells and macrophages in lungs were increased by hypoxia. Bosentan promoted bone marrow-derived endothelial cell incorporation but inhibited macrophage infiltration into lungs. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that interleukin 6, stromal cell-derived factor-1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 were upregulated by hypoxia, in which interleukin 6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 were downregulated and stromal cell-derived factor-1 was upregulated by bosentan. Protein level of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in the whole lung was significantly upregulated by hypoxia, which was further upregulated by bosentan. Bosentan modulated kinetics of bone marrow-derived ECs and macrophages and related gene expression in lungs in ameliorating pulmonary hypertension in mice. Altered kinetics of bone marrow-derived stem cells may be a novel mechanism of the endothelin receptor blockade in vivo and confer a new understanding of the therapeutic basis for pulmonary hypertension.
