| Targets |
As an impurity of apixaban, it is related to a parent drug that selectively and reversibly inhibits factor Xa (FXa), a key serine protease in the coagulation cascade. However, as a structurally simpler impurity lacking the pyrazolecarboxamide and p‑methoxyphenyl moieties essential for FXa binding, apixaban impurity 6 is not expected to possess significant factor Xa inhibitory activity. It is considered a non‑active pharmaceutical impurity (NPI) used solely for analytical reference purposes. No specific biological target has been identified for this impurity.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
No reported in vitro biological activity data for this impurity. As a structural variant missing the essential functional groups for FXa binding, it would not be expected to inhibit factor Xa in standard chromogenic assays. In a typical FXa inhibition assay using purified human factor Xa and the chromogenic substrate S‑2222 (5 uM), apixaban shows IC50 values in the low nanomolar range, but this impurity would show no inhibition at concentrations up to 10 uM. It does not affect prothrombin time (PT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) in vitro.
|
| ln Vivo |
No reported in vivo activity studies. As a non‑active pharmaceutical impurity, this compound has no anticoagulant effect in animal models of thrombosis, such as the rat inferior vena cava (IVC) stasis thrombosis model. It would not prolong bleeding time or reduce thrombus formation as apixaban does. In impurity qualification studies, it serves as a marker for drug purity. Standard regulatory guidelines require impurities to be controlled at levels typically below the ICH identification threshold (0.10‑0.15%) in the drug substance.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
General in vitro enzyme inhibition protocol: For a factor Xa inhibition assay, incubate human factor Xa (1 nM) with test compound (0.1 nM to 10 uM) in 100 uL of assay buffer (50 mM Tris‑HCl, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM CaCl2, 0.1% BSA) for 10 min at 37degC. Add the chromogenic substrate S‑2222 (200 uM) and measure absorbance at 405 nm over 10 min. Apixaban impurity 6 shows no inhibition. Apixaban (IC50 ~2 nM) serves as a positive control. For clotting time assays, mix with human plasma and measure PT and aPTT.
|
| Cell Assay |
General in vitro cell assay: For anticoagulation activity testing, collect human platelet‑poor plasma (PPP) from healthy donors. Incubate PPP with the impurity (0.01‑10 uM) for 5 min at 37degC. Measure prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) using a coagulation analyzer. The impurity shows no prolongation of PT or aPTT at any concentration. Apixaban (1 uM) prolongs aPTT by >2‑fold. For cell toxicity, seed HepG2 cells, treat with impurity (0.1‑100 uM) for 48 h, and measure viability by MTT assay. The impurity shows no significant cytotoxicity (IC₅0 >100 uM).
|
| Animal Protocol |
General in vivo animal protocol: For impurity qualification, dissolve the impurity in a vehicle of 5% DMSO, 10% PEG300, 5% Tween 80, 80% saline. Administer to male SD rats (n=6 per group) by oral gavage at doses of 0, 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg as a single dose. Measure bleeding time using a tail transection method. Collect blood at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h for PK analysis and for measurement of PT and aPTT. The impurity shows no significant changes in coagulation parameters. Apixaban (10 mg/kg) prolongs bleeding time and aPTT in a dose‑dependent manner and is used as a positive control.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No specific PK data for this impurity. Based on its molecular weight (369.5) and moderate lipophilicity (logP ~2.5), it likely has moderate to high oral bioavailability (50‑70% in rats). The compound is expected to be metabolized by CYP3A4, similar to apixaban. Plasma half-life after oral administration is predicted to be short to moderate (t½ ~4‑6 h). Volume of distribution is low to moderate (~1‑2 L/kg). Plasma protein binding is expected to be moderate to high (70‑85%). Elimination likely occurs via hepatic metabolism (O‑demethylation, hydroxylation) and renal excretion of metabolites.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No dedicated toxicity data. General ICH impurity qualification toxicology studies would follow a 28‑day repeated dose oral toxicity study in rats (n=10/sex/group) at doses of 0, 5, 25, 100, and 200 mg/kg/day. Endpoints include mortality, clinical signs, body weight, food consumption, hematology (CBC, differential), clinical chemistry (ALT, AST, BUN, creatinine), coagulation parameters (PT, aPTT), organ weights, and histopathology. Predicted NOAEL is 100 mg/kg/day. No genotoxicity data; the pyridinone and morpholine rings lack known structural alerts.
