ROCK; norepinephrine transporter (NET)
Rho kinase (ROCK) and norepinephrine transporter (NET). By inhibiting both ROCK and NET, this compound reduces intraocular pressure (IOP) through increased aqueous humor outflow (via ROCK inhibition) and decreased aqueous humor production (via NET inhibition). |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
No detailed in vitro activity data for this specific analog. As an analog of AR-13324, it is expected to inhibit ROCK activity in cell-free kinase assays (e.g., using purified ROCK enzymes and peptide substrates) with sub-micromolar IC50 values, and to inhibit norepinephrine uptake in NET-expressing cells.
|
| ln Vivo |
Six hours after a single dose of 0.04% AR-13324 to 7 normal monkey eyes, C was increased (P<0.05) by 53% in drug-treated eyes compared with either contralateral vehicle-treated control eyes or baseline measurements. The IOP measured by pneumatonometer in treated eyes was reduced (P<0.005) by 25% when compared with baseline measurements and by 24% when compared with contralateral vehicle-treated eyes. For 6 hours after a single dose of 0.04% AR-13324, F was reduced (P<0.05) by 20% and 23% when compared with contralateral vehicle-treated eyes and baseline values, respectively.
Conclusions: AR-13324 reduces IOP in normotensive monkey eyes. A dual mechanism of action, increase in tonographic outflow facility, and decrease of aqueous humor flow rates, accounts for the IOP reduction in normotensive monkey eyes.[1]
In normotensive monkey eyes, the original AR-13324 compound at 0.04% reduces IOP via changes in aqueous humor dynamics. This analog is expected to produce similar ocular hypotensive effects. No detailed in vivo data are available for the analog specifically. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Kinase activity assays: Purified ROCK enzyme (ROCK1 or ROCK2) is incubated with ATP and a peptide substrate (e.g., S6 ribosomal protein peptide) in the presence of varying concentrations of AR-13324 analog mesylate. Phosphorylation is measured by luminescence-based kinase assay kits or by Western blot using phospho-specific antibodies.
|
| Cell Assay |
NET inhibition assays: Cells expressing human norepinephrine transporter (e.g., HEK293-NET) are incubated with the compound and [3H]-norepinephrine. After washing to remove unbound ligand, cell-associated radioactivity is measured by scintillation counting to calculate IC50 values for norepinephrine uptake inhibition.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Seven normotensive monkeys were used. Tonographic outflow facility (C) was measured before drug administration and repeated 6 hours after administration of 50 µL (25 µL×2) of 0.04% AR-13324 to 1 eye and an equal volume of vehicle to the contralateral control eye. Baseline aqueous humor flow rates (F) were measured hourly for 6 hours beginning at 10:00 AM on day 1. On day 2, 50 µL (25 µL×2) of 0.04% AR-13324 was applied to 1 eye of each animal and vehicle to the fellow eye at 8:00 AM. Aqueous humor flow rates were measured at the same times as on the baseline day beginning 2 hours after dosing.[1]
In animal models, the compound is typically administered as an ophthalmic solution (e.g., 0.04% in saline) topically to normotensive or hypertensive rabbit or monkey eyes. IOP is measured using a tonometer at multiple time points (0-24 hours) post-instillation. Aqueous humor dynamics may be measured by fluorophotometry. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No detailed PK data for this analog. As a small molecule (MW ~631.7 g/mol), it is expected to have good corneal permeability when administered topically. Systemic absorption is minimal due to low dose and local administration. The mesylate salt form enhances aqueous solubility.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No toxicity data for this analog. The parent compound AR-13324 (netarsudil) has been clinically approved for glaucoma with a favorable safety profile. Ocular side effects in humans include conjunctival hyperemia and corneal verticillata. Standard research safety precautions apply.

Objective: To evaluate the ocular and systemic safety and systemic absorption of AR-13324 in healthy volunteers with normal blood pressure. Design: Open-label, non-controlled, single-arm phase I clinical trial. Methods: Location: Phase I clinical trial center. Subjects: 18 healthy adult volunteers. Intervention or observation procedure: Subjects received 0.02% AR-13324 eye drops once daily in the morning for 8 days. Primary endpoint: Plasma concentrations of AR-13324 and its putative human metabolite AR-13503, and ocular safety parameters. Results: At any time point, plasma AR-13324 concentrations in all subjects did not exceed the lower limit of quantitation (LOQ). Only one subject had an AR-13503 concentration exceeding the LQ (0.11 ng/mL) in one plasma sample (8 hours after administration on day 8). Once-daily morning administration of AR-13324 significantly reduced baseline intraocular pressure by up to 6 mmHg, and this reduction was statistically significant at all time points after administration (P < .001). Except for one subject, all subjects experienced varying degrees of transient conjunctival hyperemia within 8 hours after morning administration. Conclusion: Once-daily morning administration of 0.2% AR-13324 eye drops for 8 days resulted in little or no quantifiable systemic exposure to the parent compound or its presumed metabolites. Clinically and statistically significant reductions in intraocular pressure were observed in these subjects with normal intraocular pressure, which were more pronounced than the common effects of other intraocular pressure-lowering therapies in this population.
