| ln Vivo |
We have been developing a series of nonpeptidic, small molecule farnesyl protein transferase inhibitors that share a common tricyclic nucleus and compete with peptide/protein substrates for binding to farnesyl protein transferase. Here, we report on pharmacological and in vivo studies with SCH 66336, a lead compound in this structural class. SCH 66336 potently inhibits Ha-Ras processing in whole cells and blocks the transformed growth properties of fibroblasts and human tumor cell lines expressing activated Ki-Ras proteins. The anchorage-independent growth of many human tumor lines that lack an activated ras oncogene is also blocked by treatment with SCH 66336. In mouse, rat, and monkey systems, SCH 66336 has excellent oral bioavailability and pharmacokinetic properties. In the nude mouse, SCH 66336 demonstrated potent oral activity in a wide array of human tumor xenograft models including tumors of colon, lung, pancreas, prostate, and urinary bladder origin. Enhanced in vivo efficacy was observed when SCH 66336 was combined with various cytotoxic agents (cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil, and vincristine). In a Ha-Ras transgenic mouse model, prophylactic treatment with SCH 66336 delayed tumor onset, reduced the average number of tumors/mouse, and reduced the average tumor weight/animal. In a therapeutic mode in which gavage treatment was initiated after the transgenic mice had developed palpable tumors, significant tumor regression was induced by SCH 66336 in a dose-dependent fashion. This was associated with increased apoptosis and decreased DNA synthesis in tumors of animals treated with SCH 66336. Enhanced efficacy was also observed in this model when SCH 66336 was combined with cyclophosphamide. SCH 66336 is presently being evaluated in Phase I clinical trials[1].

Absorption
The absolute oral bioavailability of lonafarnib is unknown; in healthy subjects, the mean peak plasma concentrations (%CV) of 75 mg or 100 mg lonafarnib twice daily were 834 (32%) and 964 (32%) ng/mL, respectively. In patients with HGPS, the median tmax of 115 mg/m2 lonafarnib twice daily was 2 hours (range 0–6 hours), the mean Cmax was 1777 ± 1083 ng/mL, the mean AUC0–8hr was 9869 ± 6327 nghr/mL, and the mean AUCtau was 12365 ± 9135 nghr/mL. At a dose of 150 mg/m², the corresponding values were: 4 hours (range 0–12 hours), 2695 ± 1090 ng/mL, 16020 ± 4978 nghr/mL, and 19539 ± 6434 nghr/mL. Following a single oral dose of 75 mg lonafabric in healthy subjects, compared to the fasting state, a high-fat meal and a low-fat meal reduced lonafabric's Cmax by 55% and 25%, respectively, and AUC by 29% and 21%, respectively. Elimination Pathway Within 240 hours after oral administration of 104 mg [14C]-lonafabric in fasting healthy subjects, approximately 62% and <1% of the initial radiolabeled dose were recovered from feces and urine, respectively. The two most common metabolites were the active metabolites HM21 and HM17, accounting for 14% and 15% of plasma radioactivity, respectively. Volume of Distribution In healthy subjects, the steady-state apparent volume of distribution was 97.4 L and 87.8 L, respectively, after twice-daily administration of 75 mg or 100 mg lonafab. Metabolism/Metabolites Lonafab is primarily metabolized in vitro via CYP3A4/5, and partially via CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP2E1. The formation of the major metabolite involves the oxidation of the piperidine ring and subsequent dehydration. Biological Half-Life The mean half-life of lonafab after twice-daily oral administration of 100 mg twice-daily in healthy subjects is approximately 4–6 hours. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Hepatotoxicity
In a small premarketing clinical trial in children with progeria, 35% of subjects treated with lonafabric acid experienced elevated serum transaminases, but these were usually mild and resolved spontaneously; only 5% of subjects had transaminase levels exceeding three times the upper limit of normal (ULN). No serious liver-related adverse events occurred, and no patients experienced simultaneous elevations in both serum transaminases and bilirubin. Since lonafabric acid's approval, there have been no published reports of drug-induced liver injury related to its use, although clinical experience with the drug, particularly long-term treatment, is limited. Probability Score: E (Rare, unproven but suspected cause of clinically significant liver injury). Protein Binding Lonafabric acid has an in vitro plasma protein binding rate of ≥99% at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 40.0 μg/mL. |

| Preparing Stock Solutions | 1 mg | 5 mg | 10 mg | |
| 1 mM | 1.5654 mL | 7.8269 mL | 15.6539 mL | |
| 5 mM | 0.3131 mL | 1.5654 mL | 3.1308 mL | |
| 10 mM | 0.1565 mL | 0.7827 mL | 1.5654 mL |
*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
