Product Description

Ensifentrine (RPL-554) is a novel and potent PDE-phosphodiesterase inhibitor with bronchoprotective and anti-inflammatory activities. Specifically, it is an inhaled first-in-class dual inhibitor of PDE3/4 with IC50s of 0.4 nM and 1479 nM, respectively. Ensifentrine has the potential to be used for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Ensifentrine (RPL-554) suppresses human monocytes' TNF-α release produced by lipopolysaccharide (IC50 of 0.52 μM) and their proliferation in response to phytohemagglutinin (IC50 of 0.46 μM) in a concentration-dependent manner[1]. Ensifentrine (10 μM) effectively inhibits the contraction of isolated tracheal preparations from superfused guinea pigs that is caused by electrical field stimulation. After superfusion ends, contractile responses are inhibited for up to 12 hours, with RPL-554 exhibiting a prolonged duration of action[1].
ln Vivo
Ensifentrine (RPL-554; 10 mg/kg; oral dose; once) in ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pigs dramatically reduces eosinophil recruitment after antigen challenge[1]. The recruitment of eosinophils to the airways is dramatically inhibited when conscious guinea pigs inhale a dry powder containing ensefentrine (25% in micronized lactose) 1.5 hours prior to antigen exposure[1]. Over the course of 5.5 hours, conscious guinea pigs exposed to dry powder containing 2.5% ensefentrine in micronized lactose are shown to exhibit a considerable inhibition of histamine-induced bronchoconstriction and plasma protein extravasation in the trachea[1].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Male Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs (200-300 g) injected with ovalbumin[1].
Doses: 10 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral administration; once
Experimental Results: Dramatically inhibits eosinophil recruitment following antigen challenge in ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pigs.

Additional Infomation
Ensifentrine is under investigation in clinical trial NCT04535986 (A Phase 3 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Ensifentrine in Patients With COPD).
Ensifentrine is an inhaled inhibitor of the phosphodiesterase (PDE) types 3 (PDE3) and 4 (PDE4), with potential anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator activities. Upon administration, ensifentrine targets, binds to and inhibits PDE3 and PDE4, which leads to an increase of both intracellular levels of cyclic-3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cAMP-mediated signaling. This may lead to bronchial smooth muscle relaxation and modulate inflammatory responses. PDE3 and PDE4, members of the PDE superfamily, hydrolyze cAMP and 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) to their inactive 5' monophosphates. PDE3 is the most expressed PDE isoenzyme in bronchial smooth muscle. PDE4 is expressed in immune cells including T-cells, monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells and eosinophils. It plays an important role in inflammation, especially in inflammatory airway diseases.
Mechanism of Action
Ensifentrine is a dual inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) and phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4); it is also an activator of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). This drug has bronchodilatory and anti-inflammatory properties due to the dual inhibition; it also has mucous viscosity reduction and improved mucociliary clearance effects due to the CFTR activation. Ensifentrine is currently being investigated against COPD, cystic fibrosis, asthma, other respiratory diseases, and COVID-19.

Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: 1.25 mg/mL (2.62 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 12.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
