BIA 10-2474 is a novel, potent, long-acting and reversible inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) with IC50 values of 50 to 70mg/kg in various rat brain regions. In a recent clinical trial, the drug BIA 10-2474 was responsible for severe adverse events (SAEs), including one death. To date, there has been little reliable information divulged about the potency of BIA 10-2474 at FAAH in the central nervous system. BIA 10-2474 proved to be a potent FAAH inhibitor with IC50s of 50-70 µg/kg (i.p.) in various brain regions. This information may be useful for determining the cause of the SAEs.
| Targets |
ExVivo: It was demonstrated that BIA 10-2474 is a strong FAAH inhibitor in several brain areas, with an IC50 of 50–70 mg/kg (ip). The corresponding IC50 values for the cerebellum, cortex, remainder of the brain, and hypothalamus are 52, 67, and 68 mg/kg, respectively [1].

| ln Vivo |
A Phase I clinical trial involving the medication BIA 10-2474 experienced a major adverse event (SAE) in January 2016, which resulted in one death. We'll look for potential reasons why a trial can fail, like off-target effects, dose estimations, unforeseen immunological reactions, species variance, and cumulative dose toxicity [2].
In rats, BIA 10-2474 administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) at doses of 0.5 mg/kg or 5 mg/kg, 40 minutes before radiotracer injection, completely abolished the binding of the FAAH-selective radiotracer [¹⁸F]-DOPP in all brain regions, indicating complete inhibition of FAAH activity in the rat brain at these doses [1] A lower dose range (1-500 µg/kg, i.p.) was used to characterize the in vivo potency of BIA 10-2474. The drug dose-dependently inhibited [¹⁸F]-DOPP binding to FAAH in various brain regions (cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum, rest of brain). The IC₅₀ values for FAAH inhibition in rat brain were determined to be between 52 and 71 µg/kg [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
The literature states that BIA 10-2474 inhibits FAAH, likely through an irreversible mechanism involving the formation of a covalent bond between the drug's electrophilic carbamate or urea carbon and the serine 241 residue of the hydrolase
In vitro, the concentration required to inhibit other enzymes was reported to be about 50 to 100 times higher than that needed for FAAH inhibition, suggesting relatively low specificity for FAAH over other serine hydrolases. |
| Animal Protocol |
Groups of male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=4 per group) were pre-treated with solutions of BIA 10-2474 (dissolved in 5% Tween 80 in saline) or vehicle via intraperitoneal injection, 40 minutes prior to the intravenous injection of the radiotracer [¹⁸F]-DOPP [1]
The drug doses used in the study ranged from 1 to 5000 µg/kg (i.p.) [1] Rats were sacrificed by decapitation 40 minutes after radiotracer administration. Brains were removed, dissected into regions (cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum, rest of brain), and the radioactivity was measured to calculate the standard uptake value [1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
At sacrifice (40 minutes after administration), plasma concentrations of BIA 10-2474 were determined in rats in the three highest dose groups (100, 500, and 5000 µg/kg) [1]
The corresponding plasma concentrations were 25 ± 3 ng/mL, 116 ± 22 ng/mL, and 1380 ± 71 ng/mL, which are equivalent to approximately 83 nM, 386 nM, and 4595 nM, respectively [1] Plasma concentrations in the groups receiving lower doses of BIA 10-2474 (below 100 µg/kg) were below the detection limit (<15 ng/mL) [1] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In a Phase I clinical trial, a 10-day, continuously increasing dose (MAD) regimen up to 50 mg resulted in severe neurotoxicity in multiple participants. Clinical symptoms included headache, cerebellar syndrome, loss of consciousness, memory impairment, diplopia, and hemiplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed deep brain hemorrhage, necrosis, and bilateral symmetrical lesions involving the hippocampus, pons, thalamus, and cerebral cortex. One volunteer died (brain death), and four others suffered irreversible brain damage. The toxicity appeared to be cumulative, occurring on days 5 and 6 of multiple 50 mg doses, but not observed with a single 100 mg dose. In animal studies, cynomolgus monkeys receiving 100 mg/kg/24 h doses developed medullary damage, a form of axonal dystrophy.

| Additional Infomation |
BIA 10-2474 is a putative fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor[1]
This compound was involved in a Phase I clinical trial that resulted in serious adverse events (SAEs), including one death[1] This study aimed to determine the in vivo efficacy of BIA 10-2474 in inhibiting FAAH in the rat central nervous system, as information on this was lacking prior to the clinical trial[1] Results showed that BIA 10-2474 is an effective FAAH inhibitor in the rat brain, with an IC₅₀ (50-70 µg/kg) comparable to other known FAAH inhibitors[1] The authors believe that very high levels of FAAH inhibition may have been achieved in the central nervous system of the subjects in the Phase I trial, and that assessing target binding in the central nervous system using techniques such as PET imaging before dose escalation may help improve the inhibitory effect.
