Abstract:The pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety of a platelet GPIIb/IIIa receptor antagonist, RGD891, and its active metabolite, RGD039, were evaluated after administration of various intravenous regimens of RGD891 to healthy male volunteers in two Phase I studies. Plasma and urine concentrations of RGD891 and RGD039 were measured by validated LC/MS/MS methods with minimum quantifiable limit (MQL) of 1 ng/mL and 10 ng/mL, respectively. PD activity was assessed by percent inhibition of ADP (20 microM)-induced platelet aggregation. Following intravenous dosing, the RGD891 was the predominant compound in plasma. The PK of RGD891 was dose independent associated with modest between-subject variability. RGD891 was rapidly cleared (Cl, 11.2-15.5 L/h), exhibited a restricted distribution (Vss, 23.0-25.9 L) and a short terminal t1/2 lambda z (1.2-2.1 h). Plasma concentrations of the metabolite (RGD039) increased with dose but were variable. RGD039 had longer t1/2 lambda z of 4.5 to 6.6 hours. Renal excretion of unchanged drug played an important role in the elimination of the parent compound. Both RGD891 and RGD039 exhibited renal clearance values that were comparable to the glomerular filtration rate. Intravenous administration of RGD891 effectively inhibited platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent and reversible manner. At the highest dose (60 micrograms/kg bolus dose + 336 micrograms/kg 8-h infusion) > 90% inhibition of platelet aggregation was achieved. PD activity was primarily attributed to the parent compound. Inhibition of platelet aggregation was dependent on the anticoagulant present, with samples containing PPACK showing 20% to 30% lower activity as compared to citrate. RGD891 was safe and well tolerated across the various regimens studies.
