Baxdrostat is a selective aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) inhibitor.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In cellular enzyme assays using G-402 cells transfected with human CYP11B2, Baxdrostat demonstrated potent inhibitory activity with an EC50 of 14 nM. The compound competitively inhibits aldosterone synthase, blocking the conversion of 11-deoxycorticosterone to aldosterone. In vitro studies confirmed that Baxdrostat exhibits a high selectivity ratio for aldosterone synthase compared to 11β-hydroxylase (CYP11B1), with a selectivity factor of approximately 100-fold. The primary metabolite of Baxdrostat, CIN-107-M, also exhibits selectivity for aldosterone synthase over 11β-hydroxylase, with its two enantiomers showing >20-fold greater selectivity for aldosterone synthase.

| ln Vivo |
In a Phase 2 trial (BrigHTN) involving patients with treatment-resistant hypertension, Baxdrostat (2 mg once daily) significantly reduced blood pressure. The mean seated systolic blood pressure (SBP) reduction from baseline was 15.7 mmHg, with a placebo-adjusted reduction of 9.8 mmHg at 12 weeks. The 1 mg dose achieved a placebo-adjusted SBP reduction of 8.7 mmHg. In a Phase 3 trial (BaxHTN), these results were confirmed, with approximately 40% of patients achieving healthy blood pressure levels (<130 mmHg) compared to fewer than 20% on placebo. In non-human primate studies, Baxdrostat blunted aldosterone production while having no effect on cortisol levels. The drug also demonstrated dose-dependent reductions in plasma aldosterone and mild decreases in plasma sodium levels with increases in potassium levels.

| Enzyme Assay |
The inhibitory activity of Baxdrostat on human CYP11B2 and CYP11B1 was assessed using a cellular enzyme assay. G-402 cells were transfected with expression plasmids containing the open reading frame (ORF) for either human CYP11B1 or CYP11B2 under the control of a CMV promoter, along with a neomycin resistance marker. Transfected cells were selected and maintained in McCoy's 5a Medium Modified containing 10% fetal calf serum and 400 μg/ml G418 (Geneticin) at 37°C under 5% CO2/95% air. For the assay, cells were plated in 96-well plates and incubated for 16 hours in DMEM/F12 medium containing 2.5% charcoal-treated fetal calf serum and appropriate substrate concentrations (0.3-10 μM 11-deoxycorticosterone for CYP11B2 or 11-deoxycortisol for CYP11B1). After incubation, supernatant aliquots were transferred and analyzed for product concentration (aldosterone for CYP11B2; cortisol for CYP11B1) using homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) assays.

| Cell Assay |
The cellular activity of Baxdrostat was evaluated using G-402 cells stably expressing human CYP11B2. These cells were maintained in McCoy's 5a Medium Modified containing 10% fetal calf serum and 400 μg/ml G418 at 37°C under an atmosphere of 5% CO2/95% air. For the cellular enzyme assay, cells were plated onto 96-well plates and incubated for 16 hours in DMEM/F12 medium containing 2.5% charcoal-treated fetal calf serum and 0.3-10 μM of the substrate 11-deoxycorticosterone. Following incubation, an aliquot of the supernatant was transferred, and the concentration of the expected product, aldosterone, was determined using HTRF assays.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
A phase I study in healthy volunteers showed that basilatin had linear pharmacokinetic characteristics in the 0.5–10 mg dose range, with a median time to peak (Tmax) of 2–4 hours and a mean half-life of approximately 15–20 hours [1]. A crossover study showed no significant pharmacokinetic interaction between basilatin and metformin [3].
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Baxdrostat was well tolerated in healthy volunteers and patients with refractory hypertension, with no serious adverse events reported. Mild hyperkalemia was observed in some patients. [1][2][br>]

| Additional Infomation |
Baxdrostat is an investigational drug for the treatment of refractory hypertension. Its mechanism of action is through targeting excessive aldosterone production. Its selectivity for CYP11B2 avoids the risk of cortisol deficiency [1][2].
