Product Description

Ivacaftor (formerly also known as VX-770; trade name: KALYDECO and Symdeko) is a potent and orally bioactive potentiator of CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) with potential anti-fibrotic activity. It targets G551D-CFTR and F508del-CFTR with EC50 of 100 nM and 25 nM in fisher rat thyroid cells, respectively. Ivacaftor is a drug approved for use in the treatment of cystic fibrosis in people with certain mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, who account for 4–5% cases of cystic fibrosis.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
G551D-CFTR (EC50: 100 nM), F508del-CFTR (EC50: 25 nM)
ln Vitro
Ivacaftor (10 µM) boosts the PC secretion activity by 3-fold for ABCB4-G535D, 13.7-fold for ABCB4-G536R, 6.7-fold for ABCB4-S1076C, 9.4-fold for ABCB4-S1176L, and 5.7-fold for ABCB4- G1178S. Ivacaftor corrects the functional deficit of ABCB4 mutants[1]. When compared to R1162X CFTR cells, Ivacaftor (10 μM) dramatically boosts CFTR activity in W1282X-expressing cells[2]. Ivacaftor exhibits no significant activity against 160 targets evaluated including the GABAA benzodiazepine Ivacaftor enhances the chloride secretion with an EC50 of 0.236 ± 0.200 μM, a 10-fold change in potency compared to the F508del HBEs[3]. VX-770 raises the CFTR channel open probability (Po) in recombinant cells for both the G551D gating mutation and the F508del processing mutation. With an EC50 of 25 nM, VX-770 about 6-fold enhances forskolin-stimulated IT in temperature-corrected F508del-FRT cells[4].
ln Vivo
In rats, Ivacaftor (100–200 mg/kg, po) has good oral bioavailability[3].
Enzyme Assay
Membrane Potential Optical Assay for Detecting F508del-CFTR Potentiator Activity [3]
To identify potentiators of F508del-CFTR, an HTS assay format utilizing fluorescent voltage sensing probes was developed using a FLIPR III fluorescence plate reader. NIH-3T3 cells stably expressing F508del-CFTR were incubated for 16–24 h at 27 °C to correct the misfolded F508del-CFTR. Cells are then washed with a bath solution (160 mM NaCl, 4.5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 1 mM MgCl2, 10 mM HEPES, pH 7.4 with NaOH) and treated with fluorescent voltage sensing dyes combined with test compounds (or DMSO vehicle control) for 30 min at room temperature. The assay is run on FLIPR III using a single liquid addition step of Cl– free bath solution containing forskolin. Detected changes in membrane potential are due to the potentiator activity of test compounds on Cl– anion flux through F508del-CFTR.
Cell Assay
Ussing Chamber Recordings [3]
All cells were grown on Costar Snapwell cell culture inserts maintained at 37 °C, unless otherwise indicated, prior to recording. The cell culture inserts were mounted into an Ussing chamber (VCC MC8) to record ISC in the voltage-clamp mode (Vhold = 0 mV). For measurement of ISC, the basolateral bath solution contained the following (in mM): 135 NaCl, 1.2 CaCl2, 1.2 MgCl2, 2.4 K2HPO4, 0.6 KH2PO4, 10 N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N′-2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), and 10 dextrose (titrated to pH 7.4 with NaOH). The apical NaCl was replaced by equimolar Na+ gluconate (titrated to pH 7.4 with NaOH). For HBE cells, the ISC was measured in the presence of a basolateral to apical Cl– gradient. The normal Cl– solution contained the following (in mM): 145 NaCl, 0.83 K2HPO4, 3.3 KH2PO4, 1.2 MgCl2, 1.2 CaCl2, 10 glucose, 10 HEPES (pH adjusted to 7.35 with NaOH). The low Cl– solution contained the following (in mM): 145 Na gluconate, 1.2 MgCl2, 1.2 CaCl2, 10 glucose, 10 HEPES (pH adjusted to 7.35 with NaOH). The ISCs were digitally acquired using Acquire and Analyze software. [3]
cAMP Measurements[3]

The total cAMP concentration (cellular and secreted) in FRT cells following test compound application was determined using a cAMP-Screen 96-well immunoassay system according the manufactures directions. Briefly, FRT cells were incubated for 15 min with test compound and then lysed and transferred to a 96-well assay plate provided with the kit. The plate was incubated at room temperature for 1 h after which it was developed and luminescence emission was measured using the Acquest 384.1536 by LJL Biosystems. The cAMP concentrations were determined using a cAMP standard curve present in each plate.
Animal Protocol

In Vivo Pharmacokinetic Experiments [3]
Male mouse, Sprague–Dawley rats, beagle dog, and cynomolgus monkeys (n = 3/group) were administered a single iv dose of compound formulated in dimethyl isosorbide/ethanol/PEG400/5% dextrose in water (D5W) (10%/15%/35%/40%) at the nominal dose indicated in a dose volume of 1 mL/kg. Blood samples (0.3 mL, sodium heparin anticoagulant) were collected from an indwelling carotid cannula at the following nominal time points: at predose, 5, 15, 30, and 45 min and 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 48 h following iv administration and at predose, 0.25, 0.50, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h following oral administration. The concentration of compound in the plasma samples was determined with a liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) method, which had a lowest limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of 1 ng/mL and a linearity range between 1 and 2500 ng/mL. The mean plasma concentration–time profiles and the measured dose values were used to estimate the pharmacokinetic parameters using noncompartmental analysis modules in WinNonlin Professional Edition software, version 4.0.1.
