1. The study was conducted to investigate the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of NO-1886 (diethyl 4-[(4-bromo-2-cyanophenyl) carbamoyl] benzylphosphonate) in cynomolgus monkeys.2. After single intravenous administration of NO-1886 at a dose of 3?mg?kg?1, the total clearance (CLtot), area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC0–t), half-life (t1/2), and volume of distribution (Vd) in cynomolgus monkeys were 531?ml?h?1?kg?1, 5.63?µg?h?ml?1, 0.96?h and 679?ml?kg?1, respectively. The AUC0–t for oral administration of NO-1886 (3?mg?kg?1) was 4.23?µg?h?ml?1 and the bioavailability was 75%.3. M-2 (ethyl 4-[(4-bromo-2-cyanophenyl) carbamoyl] benzylphosphonate) and M-3 (4-[(diethoxy-phosphoryl) methyl)] benzoic acid) were present as metabolites in plasma and urine. In faeces, M-2 was present but M-3 was not.4. The major metabolite of NO-1886 in liver S9 or microsomes was M-2 in the presence of NADPH. On the other hand, M-3 was formed in the absence of NADPH in liver S9 or microsomes and its formation was inhibited by bis-(?p-nitrophenyl) phosphate (BNPP) in liver S9, suggesting that the formation of M-3 was catalysed by carboxylesterase.5. The findings suggest that the main metabolic pathway of NO-1886 in cynomolgus monkeys is the O-deethylation of NO-1886 to M-2, as in rats and humans, and that the hydrolysis of the amide bond is a minor metabolic pathway. |
