Sufugolix (formerly known as TAK-013) is a novel, highly potent, non-peptide, selective and orally bioavailable luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) receptor antagonist with anticancer activity. It inhibits LHRH with an IC50 of 0.1 nM. Sufugolix was under development for the treatment of endometriosis and uterine leiomyoma and reached phase II clinical trials for both of these indications, but was discontinued.
| Targets |
IC50: 0.1 nM (human LHRH), 0.6 nM (monkey LHRH)[1]
Human luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) receptor (IC50 = 0.1 nM in binding assay; IC50 = 0.06 nM in functional antagonism assay) Monkey LHRH receptor (IC50 = 0.6 nM in binding assay; IC50 = 10 nM in functional antagonism assay) Rat LHRH receptor (IC50 > 1000 nM in binding assay) [1] |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Sufugolix shows selectivity for the human receptor over the monkey and rat receptors that is more than three and two thousand times, respectively. On CHO cells expressing the human (IC50=0.1 nM) and monkey (IC50=0.6 nM) receptors, sufugolix effectively inhibits LHRH function. Using high-temperature molecular dynamics computation for the conformational analysis of sufugolix, it is found that the trans conformer of the methoxyurea is less populated than the cis conformer [1].
Sufugolix (TAK-013) exhibited high binding affinity for the cloned human LHRH receptor expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, with an IC50 value of 0.1 nM in a competitive binding assay using [¹²⁵I]leuprorelin as the radioligand. [1] In a functional assay measuring the inhibition of LHRH-stimulated arachidonic acid (AA) release from CHO cells expressing the human LHRH receptor, Sufugolix (TAK-013) demonstrated potent antagonistic activity with an IC50 value of 0.06 nM. [1] The compound showed species specificity, with significantly lower affinity for monkey (IC50 = 0.6 nM in binding, 10 nM in functional assay) and rat (IC50 > 1000 nM in binding) LHRH receptors compared to the human receptor. [1] |
| ln Vivo |
In castrated male cynomolgus monkeys, oral administration of sufugolix at a dose of 30 mg/kg results in an almost complete suppression of the plasma LH levels with a long enough half-life (more than 24 hours). Sufugolix has maximal plasma concentrations of 0.34 μM at 6 hours after treatment and 0.18 μM at 4 hours after administration at dosages of 30 and 10 mg/kg, respectively[1].
Oral administration of Sufugolix (TAK-013) at a dose of 30 mg/kg to castrated male cynomolgus monkeys caused almost complete suppression of plasma luteinizing hormone (LH) levels (to 11% of pretreatment levels at 24 hours). The suppressive effect lasted for more than 24 hours. [1] At a lower oral dose of 10 mg/kg, Sufugolix (TAK-013) also effectively suppressed plasma LH levels (to approximately 20% of pretreatment levels from 8 to 24 hours post-dose). [1] The in vivo antagonistic effect of Sufugolix (TAK-013) at 30 mg/kg (po) was more potent and had a longer duration of action than the predecessor compound T-98475 at 60 mg/kg (po). [1] |
| Enzyme Assay |
A receptor binding assay was performed to determine the affinity of compounds for the LHRH receptor. Membrane fractions prepared from CHO cells stably expressing the recombinant human LHRH receptor were incubated with a fixed concentration of the radioligand [¹²⁵I]leuprorelin (0.12-0.15 nM) and various concentrations of the test compound at 25°C for 60 minutes in an assay buffer. The reaction was terminated by adding ice-cold buffer, and bound ligand was separated by rapid filtration through a polyethylenimine-coated glass fiber filter. Radioactivity on the filter was measured. Specific binding was calculated by subtracting nonspecific binding (determined in the presence of 1 μM unlabeled leuprorelin) from total binding. IC50 values were derived by fitting the data to a pseudo-Hill equation. [1]
Binding assays for monkey and rat LHRH receptors followed similar protocols. For monkey receptors, membranes from CHO cells expressing the cloned cynomolgus monkey LHRH receptor were used. For rat receptors, membranes from the anterior pituitary of male Wistar rats were used, and incubation was performed at 4°C for 90 minutes. [1] |
| Cell Assay |
An in vitro functional antagonism assay was conducted using CHO cells expressing either human or monkey LHRH receptors. Cells were seeded into 24-well plates and cultured. They were then labeled by incubation with [³H]arachidonic acid for one day. After washing, the cells were preincubated with the test compounds at 37°C for 60 minutes. LHRH (1 nM final concentration) was added to stimulate arachidonic acid release, and incubation continued for 40 minutes at 37°C. The radioactivity released into the medium was quantified using a liquid scintillation counter to determine the inhibitory effect of the compounds on LHRH-stimulated response. IC50 values were calculated. [1]

| Animal Protocol |
Monkeys: Sufugolix (10 or 30 mg/kg, 3 mL/kg, n=3 for each group) is suspended in 0.5% methylcellulose containing 1.2% citric acid, or 0.5% methylcellulose containing 1.2% citric acid alone (3 mL/kg, n=3), are administered orally. Blood samples (heparin-plasma) are collected from a femoral vein 24 h before administration and 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, and 48 h after administration. LH concentrations in the plasma are measured by bioassays using mouse testicular cells[1].
For oral absorption studies, female cynomolgus monkeys (4-8 years old) were used. Compounds (Sufugolix (TAK-013) hydrochloride, 9a, 9g) were suspended in 0.5% methylcellulose and orally administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg. Blood samples (heparinized plasma) were collected from a forearm vein at 1, 3, and 6 hours after administration. Plasma concentrations of the compounds were determined by reverse-phase HPLC. [1] For in vivo efficacy studies evaluating LH suppression, male cynomolgus monkeys (4-9 years old) that had been castrated more than 6 months prior were used. Sufugolix (TAK-013) (free base) was suspended in 0.5% methylcellulose containing 1.2% citric acid and administered orally at doses of 10 or 30 mg/kg (3 mL/kg). A vehicle control (0.5% methylcellulose with 1.2% citric acid) was also administered. Blood samples (heparinized plasma) were collected from a femoral vein 24 hours before and at 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, and 48 hours after administration. Plasma LH concentrations were measured using a bioassay with mouse testicular cells. [1] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Following a single oral dose of 10 mg/kg suffogoli (TAK-013) in cynomolgus monkeys, the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) reached 0.2 μM. The time to peak concentration (Tmax) was 6 hours. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC0-6) from 0 to 6 hours was 0.85 μM·h. [1] Following oral doses of 10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg in monkeys, the observed Cmax values were 0.18 μM and 0.34 μM, respectively, reached at 4 hours and 6 hours after administration. [1] As indicated by the higher Cmax and AUC values, suffogoli (TAK-013) (methoxyurea) was better absorbed orally in monkeys than its ethylurea analogue (9 g) at the same dose of 10 mg/kg. [1]

Drug Indication
Studied for the treatment of endometriosis and uterine fibroids. Mechanism of Action Endometriosis is a painful and fertility-threatening condition caused by the growth of endometrial-like tissue in other parts of the pelvis. This disease is associated with sex hormones, among which gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) plays a crucial role. GnRH is a hypothalamic decapeptide amide that plays an important role in regulating reproductive processes. TAK-013 is a potent antagonist of the human gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (hGnRHR), inhibiting the release of gonadotropins. Shufogolix (TAK-013) is a highly effective, orally bioavailable, non-peptide human gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor antagonist. It belongs to a class of chemical compounds based on a thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione core structure, which was developed as a superior alternative to earlier thienopyridin-4-one core structures (e.g., T-98475). [1] Its key structural feature is the unique p-(3-methoxyurea)phenyl group at the 6-position of the core structure. Molecular modeling shows that the methoxyurea moiety forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the aniline NH atom and the methoxy oxygen atom. This hydrogen bond is thought to shield the hydrogen-bonded group from the effects of solvents, reduce the desolvation energy, and increase apparent lipophilicity, thereby enhancing membrane permeability and oral absorption. [1] Sufugolix (TAK-013) was selected as a candidate clinical trial drug for the treatment of hormone-dependent diseases due to its good in vitro efficacy, species selectivity for human receptors, and improved oral efficacy in monkeys.
