Kv7.2/7.3 and Kv7.3/7.5 potassium channels[1][2]
ICA-105665 activates neuronal Kv7.2/Kv7.3 (KCNQ2/3) and Kv7.3/Kv7.5 (KCNQ3/5) potassium channels, which are important regulators of neuronal excitability. By opening these channels, ICA-105665 hyperpolarizes neurons, reducing hyperexcitability. It also inhibits liver mitochondrial function and bile salt export protein (BSEP) transport (IC50 = 311 uM), but this occurs at concentrations much higher than those required for Kv7 channel activation. |

| ln Vitro |
According to results from three assessments in two different human hepatocyte lots (LBN and HU4165), ICA-105665 (PF-04895162) does not exhibit potent cytotoxic properties in THLE and HepG2 cell lines (IC50 ~192 μM and 130 μM after 72 hours, respectively) or in human hepatocytes (AC50 for cell loss at 48 hours was >125 μM). Human hepatocytes treated with ICA-105665 (PF-04895162) at doses >11 μM for 25 minutes[1] have impaired mitochondrial respiratory reserve.
In vitro, ICA-105665 is a potent opener of neuronal Kv7.2/7.3 and Kv7.3/7.5 potassium channels. It has low cytotoxic potential in human hepatocytes but inhibits liver mitochondrial function and BSEP transport at an IC50 of 311 uM. The compound is CNS-penetrant and has antiepileptic effects. It has demonstrated broad-spectrum antiseizure activity in multiple in vitro seizure models. |
| ln Vivo |
In a 7-day rat toxicology investigation, dose-dependent increases of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), which may be suggestive of liver injury, were noted for ICA-105665 (PF-04895162). However, ALT elevations were not verified in a follow-up 7-day investigation, and no histological evidence of liver impairment was found. Additionally, transaminase increases and liver toxicity were not observed in 28-day or 6-month toxicity trials conducted in rats, and toxicity investigations lasting up to nine months in cynomolgus monkeys were similarly negative[2]. In several animal models, such as maximal electroshock, 6 Hz seizures, pentylenetetrazole, and electrical kindling, ICA-105665 (PF-04895162) has shown broad spectrum antiseizure efficacy at dosages ranging from <1 to 5 mg/kg[3].
In vivo, ICA-105665 has demonstrated broad-spectrum antiseizure activity in multiple animal models including maximal electroshock (MES), 6 Hz seizures (32 mA and 44 mA), pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures, and electrical kindling at doses ranging from <1 to 5 mg/kg. It penetrates the CNS and exhibits antiepileptic effects. The compound is orally active, and its antiepileptic efficacy has been established in rodent models. |
| Enzyme Assay |
For in vitro Kv7 channel activation assays, HEK293 cells co-expressing Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 (or Kv7.3 and Kv7.5) subunits are used in whole-cell patch-clamp recordings. Cells are held at -80 mV, and potassium currents are elicited by voltage-step protocols (e.g., from -120 mV to +60 mV). ICA-105665 is applied at increasing concentrations (0.1 nM to 100 uM). The EC50 for current enhancement is calculated. For selectivity, similar assays are performed on cells expressing other potassium or ion channels. Cell viability in hepatocytes is assessed by MTT or ATP-based assays.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cell-based assays, primary rat cortical neurons or SH-SY5Y cells are treated with ICA-105665 at concentrations of 0.01-10 uM for 1-24 hours. Membrane potential can be measured using voltage-sensitive dyes (e.g., DiBAC4(3)). Neuronal firing rate can be assessed by multi-electrode array (MEA) recordings. Cytotoxicity is assessed by LDH release or MTT assay. For hepatotoxicity assessment, primary human hepatocytes are treated with ICA-105665 (0.1-1000 uM), and mitochondrial function is assessed by measuring oxygen consumption rate (Seahorse). BSEP transport inhibition is measured in membrane vesicles containing human BSEP.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo efficacy studies, ICA-105665 is formulated in an appropriate oral vehicle (e.g., 0.5% methylcellulose or 5% DMSO in saline) and administered orally by gavage to rats or mice at doses ranging from 0.5-10 mg/kg. In maximal electroshock (MES) seizure models, seizures are induced by corneal or ear-clip electrodes, and protection from tonic hindlimb extension is assessed. In 6 Hz seizure models, seizures are induced by 6 Hz, 32 mA or 44 mA corneal stimulation for 3 seconds. The reduction in seizure duration or complete protection is measured. Efficacy is typically assessed 0.5-4 hours post-dose.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
ICA-105665 is orally active and penetrates the CNS. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters are available in primary literature. In preclinical species (rats and dogs), ICA-105665 shows good oral bioavailability and a half-life suitable for once- or twice-daily dosing. The compound demonstrates brain-to-plasma ratios indicating efficient CNS penetration. For specific PK parameters (Cmax, Tmax, t1/2, AUC, oral bioavailability), researchers should consult the published literature, including the article by Bialer et al. ICA-105665 has low cytotoxic potential in human hepatocytes, but inhibits mitochondrial function at concentrations >300 uM.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
ICA-105665 has low cytotoxic potential in human hepatocytes but inhibits liver mitochondrial function and BSEP transport at high concentrations (IC50 = 311 uM). This BSEP inhibition could potentially lead to drug-induced liver injury (DILI) at high doses or with chronic use. In animal seizure models at effective doses (<5 mg/kg), no significant toxicity has been reported. Comprehensive toxicology studies have likely been conducted to support preclinical development. Researchers should consult primary literature for detailed safety data.

| Additional Infomation |
ICA-105665 is a novel small molecule compound for the treatment of epilepsy. It is a novel KCNQ ion channel opener, and preclinical studies have shown it to have broad activity in various epilepsy models. Furthermore, ICA-105665 has also shown activity in certain neuropathic pain models.
Drug Indications Its applications are under investigation for the treatment of epilepsy.Mechanism of Action ICA-105665 activates KCNQ ion channel subtypes, which are ideal targets for the treatment of epilepsy due to their function and genetic association with epileptic seizures. ICA-105665 (PF-04895162) is a research compound that has been studied in preclinical models of epilepsy. It is not approved for clinical use. The compound represents a Kv7 channel opener approach to seizure control, distinct from benzodiazepines (GABA-A modulators) or sodium channel blockers. It may have advantages over the related compound retigabine (ezogabine), which was approved for epilepsy but discontinued due to skin and retinal pigmentation issues. ICA-105665 is a valuable research tool for studying Kv7 channel function in epilepsy. It should be stored at -20degC, protected from moisture and light. |
