Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium is a selective inhibitor of neprilysin (NEP, EC 3.4.24.11) —a zinc-dependent metallopeptidase involved in peptide degradation.
- Human neprilysin: Ki = 0.64 nM (competitive inhibition, based on co-crystal structure and enzyme activity assay)[1] No significant interaction with other peptidases (e.g., angiotensin-converting enzyme, ACE) or ion channels related to cardiac repolarization at therapeutic concentrations[2] |

| ln Vitro |
Sacubitrilat (LBQ657) has a distinct stereocenter and is a single diastereomer. Sacubitrilat exhibits a high inhibitory efficacy of 5 nM upon binding to the active site of NEP via a complicated response network including all of the compound's functional groups [1].
Potent Neprilysin Inhibition: Dose-dependently inhibited recombinant human neprilysin activity. At 1 nM, neprilysin activity was reduced by 90%; complete inhibition (>99%) was achieved at 10 nM[1] - No Impact on Cardiac Repolarization-Related Ion Channels: In isolated human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells expressing hERG (Kv11.1), Nav1.5, Cav1.2, or Kir2.1 channels, Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium (0.1-10 μM) did not significantly alter channel current amplitude or gating properties. IC50 for hERG channel inhibition was >10 μM[2] - Stable Binding to Neprilysin: Co-crystal structure analysis showed the compound binds to the active site of neprilysin, coordinating with the catalytic zinc ion (Zn²⁺) and forming hydrogen bonds with conserved residues (Ala543, Gly544, Glu546), ensuring high affinity and selectivity[1] |
| ln Vivo |
Following a single sidewall dosage of LCZ696 at 400 or 1200 mg while fasting, the pharmacokinetics of Sacubitrilat, Sacubitrilat la (LBQ657), and the insecticide Sartan are compiled. Sacubitril's mean intraperitoneal concentration rose quickly; its median Tmax for the 400 mg and 1200 mg doses was 0.52 hours, and its Tmax for Sacubitril was 1.05 hours. Sacubitril's Tmax values were 2.07 and 3.05 hours, respectively. The median Tmax for brasartan for the LCZ696 400 mg and 1200 mg dosages was 2.07 hours. The increase in Sacubitril's Cmax was dose-proportional, and there was a less than proportional increase in Sacubitril's Cmax between doses. When it comes to sacubitril and sacubitrilat, arithmetic tools AUC0-24 h and AUClast grew about dose-proportionally, but they did not grow as much when it came to sartan [2].
Cardiac Repolarization Safety: In beagle dogs (n=4/group), intravenous administration of Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium at therapeutic (0.3 mg/kg) and supratherapeutic (1 mg/kg) doses did not prolong QT interval or corrected QT interval (QTc) compared to vehicle controls. QTc changes were within ±10 ms, meeting safety criteria for cardiac repolarization[2] - Pharmacodynamic Correlation: In rats, intravenous administration of 0.1 mg/kg Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium inhibited plasma neprilysin activity by 75% within 1 hour post-dosing, with inhibition maintained for 6 hours[1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Neprilysin Activity Inhibition Assay: Recombinant human neprilysin was mixed with a fluorogenic peptide substrate (Mca-RPPGFSAFK(Dnp)-OH) and serial dilutions of Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium (0.001-100 nM) in reaction buffer (pH 7.4). The mixture was incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes, and fluorescence intensity (excitation 320 nm, emission 405 nm) was measured to quantify substrate cleavage. Ki value was calculated via Lineweaver-Burk analysis[1]
- Peptidase Selectivity Assay: The inhibitory effect of the compound (0.01-10 μM) on other peptidases (ACE, endothelin-converting enzyme, ECE-1) was evaluated using their specific fluorogenic substrates. No significant inhibition (<5%) was observed for non-target peptidases[1] |
| Cell Assay |
Ion Channel Function Assay: HEK cells stably expressing hERG, Nav1.5, Cav1.2, or Kir2.1 channels were seeded on coverslips and patched in whole-cell configuration. Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium (0.1-10 μM) was applied to the bath solution, and channel currents were recorded using patch-clamp electrophysiology. Current-voltage relationships and gating kinetics were analyzed to assess channel modulation[2]
- Cardiomyocyte Electrophysiology Assay: Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) were treated with Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium (0.3-3 μM) for 24 hours. Action potential duration (APD90) and beat rate were measured via multi-electrode array (MEA) system. No significant changes in APD90 (<10% variation) or arrhythmic events were observed[2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Cardiac Repolarization Study in Dogs: Male beagle dogs (8-10 kg) were randomized into 3 groups: 1) Vehicle control (saline); 2) Therapeutic dose (0.3 mg/kg Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium, intravenous); 3) Supratherapeutic dose (1 mg/kg Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium, intravenous). Electrocardiograms (ECG) were recorded continuously for 24 hours pre-dosing and 48 hours post-dosing. QT intervals were corrected for heart rate (QTc) and analyzed for significant prolongation[2]
- Neprilysin Inhibition Pharmacodynamic Study in Rats: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200-250 g) were administered a single intravenous dose of 0.1 mg/kg Sacubitrilat (LBQ-657) sodium. Blood samples were collected at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours post-dosing. Plasma neprilysin activity was measured using a fluorogenic substrate assay to assess inhibition efficacy[1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Plasma protein binding: In human (70%) and canine (68%) plasma, plasma protein binding was moderate, as determined by ultrafiltration [2]
- Half-life: The terminal elimination half-life (t1/2) in dogs (intravenous injection, 0.3 mg/kg) was 1.2 hours, and in rats (intravenous injection, 0.1 mg/kg) it was 0.9 hours [1][2] - Distribution: The volume of distribution (Vd) in dogs was 0.3 L/kg, indicating limited tissue distribution [2] - Clearance: The renal clearance (Clr) in rats accounted for 65% of the total clearance, with the remainder cleared via non-renal pathways [1] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Acute toxicity: Single intravenous injection doses up to 1 mg/kg in dogs and up to 3 mg/kg in rats did not cause death or toxic clinical symptoms (e.g., vomiting, somnolence, ECG abnormalities) [2]
- Cardiac safety: In dogs, no QT/QTc interval prolongation or arrhythmia was observed at supertherapeutic doses (1 mg/kg), confirming the safety of cardiac repolarization [2] - In vitro cytotoxicity: At concentrations up to 20 μM, there was no significant cytotoxicity to HEK cells, hiPSC-CMs, or normal human fibroblasts (MTT assay) [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
LCZ696 is a metabolite of neprilysin inhibitory activity. Sacubitril is a neprilysin inhibitor. The mechanism of action of sacubitril is as a neprilysin inhibitor. Background: Sacubitril (LBQ-657) sodium is the active metabolite of sacubitril, which is the prodrug component of the fixed-dose combination sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) used to treat heart failure [1][2]. - Mechanism of action: It binds to the active site of neprilysin, inhibiting its peptidase activity, thereby increasing the plasma levels of vasoactive peptides (e.g., natriuretic peptides, bradykinin). These peptides have natriuretic, diuretic and vasodilatory effects, which are beneficial for the treatment of heart failure[1]
- Therapeutic indication: As a component of sacubitril/valsartan, for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)[1][2] - Structural features: A carboxylate compound that coordinates with zinc ions at the active site of neprilysin. The sodium salt form improves water solubility and facilitates intravenous and oral administration (via the prodrug sacubitril)[1] - Safety advantages: Does not interfere with cardiac repolarization-related ion channels, minimizing the risk of QT interval prolongation—a key safety concern for cardiovascular drugs[2] |
