| Targets |
The primary target of rolapitant is the neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1 receptor), a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family. It competitively binds to and blocks the activity of the NK1 receptor in the central nervous system, thereby inhibiting the interaction with the endogenous ligand substance P. Rolapitant exhibits high affinity for the human NK1 receptor with a Ki value of 0.66 nM and demonstrates >1000-fold selectivity over the human NK2 and NK3 subtypes. Compared to other NK1 receptor antagonists like aprepitant, rolapitant has both a more rapid onset of action and a much longer half-life.

| ln Vitro |
Rolapitant exhibits superior affinity for NK1 receptors in humans, guinea pigs, gerbils, and monkeys compared to rat, mouse, and rabbit, and it has over 1000-fold selectivity for human NK2 and NK3 isoforms [1]. In CHO cells expressing human NK1 receptor, rolapitant (1-1000 nM) competitively and concentration-dependently blocks calcium efflux generated by GR-73632, an NK1 receptor agonist [1].
Rolapitant demonstrates high selectivity and potent NK1 receptor antagonistic activity in vitro. In cell-free radioligand binding assays, rolapitant exhibits high affinity for the human NK1 receptor with a Ki value of 0.66 nM and displays >1000-fold selectivity over the human NK2 and NK3 subtypes. In CHO cells expressing the human NK1 receptor, rolapitant (1-1000 nM) inhibits GR-73632 (an NK1 receptor agonist)-induced calcium efflux in a concentration-dependent and competitive manner, with a calculated Kb value of 0.17 nM. Furthermore, rolapitant exhibits species selectivity for the NK1 receptor, showing preferential affinity for human, guinea pig, gerbil, and monkey NK1 receptors over rat, mouse, and rabbit. |
| ln Vivo |
In Mongolian gerbils, rolapitant (0.03–1 mg/kg orally, 0.3–1 mg/kg intravenously; single dose) reduces the foot tapping response induced by GR-73632 [1]. Rolapitant (0.03-1 mg/kg; oral; single dose; observed for 72 hours) inhibits the acute vomiting that ferrets experience when given apomorphine and cisplatin [1].
Rolapitant demonstrates centrally-mediated antiemetic activity in various animal models. In gerbils, a single oral or intravenous administration of rolapitant (minimal effective dose of 0.1 mg/kg) reverses NK1 agonist-induced foot-tapping response for up to 24 hours. In ferrets, rolapitant (0.03-1 mg/kg, oral) effectively blocks apomorphine- and cisplatin-induced acute emesis and shows activity in both acute and delayed emesis models at 0.1 and 1 mg/kg, respectively. Clinical efficacy of antiemetics is highly correlated with efficacy in the ferret emesis model, suggesting rolapitant's clinical effectiveness. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Membrane Preparation: Harvest CHO cells expressing human NK1 receptors, lyse cells, and extract membrane fractions via centrifugation.
Radioligand Binding Assay: Incubate membranes with radioligand (e.g., [³H]substance P or [³H]GR-73632) and various concentrations of rolapitant in assay buffer at room temperature.
Define Non-specific Binding: Use a high concentration of unlabeled ligand or NK1 receptor antagonist to define non-specific binding.
Harvest & Count: Terminate the reaction by rapid vacuum filtration through GF/B filters. Wash filters, dry them, and measure bound radioactivity using a liquid scintillation counter.
Data Analysis: Plot competitive binding curves and calculate the Ki value for rolapitant (0.66 nM).
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell Culture: Seed CHO cells stably expressing human NK1 receptors into appropriate culture plates and culture to suitable confluence.
Calcium Flux Assay: Load cells with a calcium-sensitive dye (e.g., Fluo-4 AM) and pre-incubate with varying concentrations of rolapitant.
Agonist Stimulation: Add NK1 receptor agonist GR-73632 to stimulate, and detect changes in intracellular calcium concentration using a fluorescence plate reader or HTS system.
Data Analysis: Rolapitant inhibits agonist-induced calcium efflux in a concentration-dependent and competitive manner, with a calculated Kb value of 0.17 nM.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Female Mongolian gerbil (30-60 g; anesthetized with oxygen:isoflurane mixture immediately after 4 h PO or immediately after IV, followed by ICV injection of 5 μl of 3 pmol GR-73632 solution) [1]
Doses: 0.03 orally , 0.1, 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, IV 0.3 and 1 mg/kg Dosing: Oral or IV, single dose Experimental Results: GR-73632-induced foot tapping response was attenuated when administered PO 4, dose-dependent One hour before the dependence test, the ID90 is 0.3 mg/kg, and foot pedaling is inhibited for at least 24 hrs (hrs (hours)). When administered intravenously (iv) (iv)(iv), GR-73632 induced a dose-dependent blockade of foot tapping, with complete blockade observed at 1 mg/kg. Animal/Disease Models: Ferrets (treated with 0.125 mg/kg apomorphine subcutaneously (sc) (sc) or 10 mg/kg cisplatin intraperitoneally (ip) (ip)) [1] Doses: 0.03, 0.1, 0.3 and 1 mg/kg Route of Administration: PO; single dose; Results observed for 72 hrs (hrs (hours)): Blocked dose-dependent acute vomiting in ferrets induced by apomorphine and cisplatin.

| Additional Infomation |
Rolapitant hydrochloride (anhydrous form) is the hydrochloride salt of irinotecan reacted with an equimolar amount of hydrochloric acid. It (in hydrated form) is used to prevent delayed nausea and vomiting induced by initial and repeated courses of emetogenic chemotherapy for cancer. It has antiemetic and neurokinin-1 receptor antagonistic effects. It contains rorapitan (1+).
