Balipodect (formerly also known as TAK-063) is a novel, highly potent, orally bioavailable and selective phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) inhibitor with potential usefulness in the treatment of schizophrenia. It inhibits PDE10A with an IC50 of 0.30 nM. TAK-063 has also excellent selectivity (>15000-fold selectivity over other PDEs), and favorable pharmacokinetics, including high brain penetration, in mice. Oral administration of TAK-063 to mice elevated striatal 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels at 0.3 mg/kg and showed potent suppression of phencyclidine (PCP)-induced hyperlocomotion at a minimum effective dose (MED) of 0.3 mg/kg.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro activity: TAK-063 has potent inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.30 nM), excellent selectivity (>15000-fold selectivity over other PDEs), and favorable pharmacokinetics, including high brain penetration, in mice. Oral administration of TAK-063 to mice elevated striatal 3,5-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3,5-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels at 0.3 mg/kg and showed potent suppression of phencyclidine (PCP)-induced hyperlocomotion at a minimum effective dose (MED) of 0.3 mg/kg. TAK-063 at 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, p.o., increased cAMP and cGMP levels in the rodent striatum and upregulated phosphorylation levels of key substrates of cAMP-dependent and cGMP-dependent protein kinases. TAK-063 at 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, p.o., strongly suppressed MK-801-induced hyperlocomotion that is often used as a predictive model for antipsychotic-like activity in rodents. TAK-063 did not affect plasma prolactin or glucose levels at doses up to 3 mg/kg, p.o. TAK-063 at 3 mg/kg, p.o., elicited a weak cataleptic response compared with haloperidol and olanzapine. Kinase Assay: Balipodect (TAK-063) is a highly potent, selective and orally active PDE10A inhibitor with IC50 of 0.30 nM; >15000-fold selectivity over other PDEs. TAK-063 (Balipodect) potently inhibited human recombinant PDE10A activity with an IC50 of 0.37 nM and Ki of 0.15 nM, showing >10,000-fold selectivity over other PDE isoforms (PDE1-9, PDE11) [1] In HEK293 cells stably expressing human PDE10A, TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.1-100 nM) dose-dependently increased intracellular cAMP levels (EC50 = 1.2 nM) and cGMP levels (EC50 = 0.8 nM) by inhibiting PDE10A-mediated hydrolysis [1] In rat striatal slices, TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.1-10 μM) increased cAMP and cGMP concentrations by 2.3-4.1-fold and 1.8-3.5-fold, respectively, with maximal effects at 10 μM [2] No significant inhibition of other PDE isoforms (PDE1A, PDE2A, PDE3B, PDE4B, PDE5A, PDE6C, PDE7A, PDE8A, PDE9A, PDE11A) was observed at concentrations up to 10 μM [1][2] |
| ln Vivo |
Balipodect (TAK-063) exhibits favorable pharmacokinetics, including high brain penetration in mice, and excellent selectivity (>15000-fold selectivity over other PDEs). When mice were given Balipodect (TAK-063) orally, their striatal levels of 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) increased to 0.3 mg/kg. Additionally, at a minimum effective dose (MED) of 0.3 mg/kg, there was a significant suppression of phencyclidine (PCP)-induced hyperlocomotion[1]. At 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, po, balipodect (TAK-063) raised the levels of cAMP and cGMP in the rodent striatum and elevated the phosphorylation of important substrates of cAMP-dependent and cGMP-dependent protein kinases. At 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, po, balipodect (TAK-063) significantly reduced the hyperlocomotion induced by MK-801, which is frequently utilized as a model to predict antipsychotic-like activity in rodents. When combined with haloperidol and olanzapine, balipodect (TAK-063) at 3 mg/kg, po, elicited a weak cataleptic response[2]. At doses up to 3 mg/kg, po, balipodect (TAK-063) did not affect plasma prolactin or glucose levels.
In mice, oral administration of TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.1-3 mg/kg) dose-dependently reduced amphetamine-induced hyperlocomotion (a model of psychosis) by 30-75%, with an ED50 of 0.5 mg/kg [2] In rats, TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.3-3 mg/kg oral) inhibited phencyclidine (PCP)-induced deficits in prepulse inhibition (PPI) of startle response (a measure of sensory gating, impaired in schizophrenia) by 40-65% [2] In the rat conditioned avoidance response (CAR) model (predictive of antipsychotic efficacy), TAK-063 (Balipodect) (1-10 mg/kg oral) dose-dependently reduced avoidance responses by 35-80%, with an ED50 of 2.8 mg/kg [2] Single oral doses of TAK-063 (Balipodect) (1-10 mg/kg) in rats increased striatal cAMP and cGMP levels by 1.5-2.8-fold and 1.4-2.5-fold, respectively, at 1 hour post-dosing [2] In mice, TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.3-3 mg/kg oral) increased dopamine and serotonin turnover in the striatum, as indicated by elevated levels of their metabolites (DOPAC, HVA, 5-HIAA) [2] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Human recombinant PDE10A was mixed with reaction buffer containing cAMP/cGMP (substrates) and MgCl2. TAK-063 (Balipodect) was serially diluted (0.01 nM-1 μM) and added to the mixture, which was incubated at 30°C for 60 minutes. The reaction was terminated by heating at 95°C for 5 minutes, and remaining cAMP/cGMP was quantified using a competitive immunoassay kit. IC50 values were calculated from concentration-response inhibition curves [1]
For Ki determination, PDE10A enzyme assays were performed with varying concentrations of cAMP (0.1-10 μM) and fixed concentrations of TAK-063 (Balipodect). The reaction mixture was incubated at 30°C for 45 minutes, and hydrolyzed substrates were measured by HPLC. Ki values were derived using Lineweaver-Burk plots to confirm competitive inhibition [1] Rat/mouse recombinant PDE10A enzyme assays were conducted similarly to human PDE10A assays, with reaction conditions optimized for rodent enzymes. TAK-063 (Balipodect) was tested at concentrations of 0.01 nM-1 μM, and IC50 values were calculated based on residual enzyme activity [2] |
| Cell Assay |
HEK293 cells stably expressing human PDE10A were seeded into 96-well plates and allowed to adhere overnight. Cells were preincubated with TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.1 nM-100 nM) for 30 minutes, then stimulated with forskolin (to increase cAMP) or sodium nitroprusside (to increase cGMP) for 1 hour at 37°C. Cells were lysed, and intracellular cAMP/cGMP levels were quantified using specific ELISA kits. EC50 values for cAMP/cGMP elevation were determined [1]
Rat striatal slices (300 μm) were prepared and incubated in oxygenated Krebs-Ringer buffer at 37°C for 1 hour. TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.1-10 μM) was added to the buffer, and slices were incubated for another 2 hours. Slices were homogenized, and cAMP/cGMP concentrations were measured by HPLC with electrochemical detection [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Formulated in 0.5% (w/v) methylcellulose in distilled water; 0.3 mg/kg; p.o.
ICR mice Male ICR mice (20-25 g) were used for amphetamine-induced hyperlocomotion. Mice were randomized into groups (n=8 per group) and administered TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.1, 0.3, 1, 3 mg/kg) or vehicle (0.5% methylcellulose + 0.1% Tween 80) by oral gavage 60 minutes before amphetamine (5 mg/kg intraperitoneal) injection. Locomotor activity was measured for 2 hours in an open-field apparatus using automated activity monitors [2] Male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) were used for PPI and CAR studies. For PPI: Rats were treated with TAK-063 (Balipodect) (0.3, 1, 3 mg/kg oral) or vehicle 60 minutes before PCP (5 mg/kg intraperitoneal) administration. PPI of startle response was measured using a startle reflex system 30 minutes after PCP injection [2] For CAR: Rats were trained to avoid an electric foot shock by moving to a safe compartment after a conditioned stimulus. Once trained, rats were treated with TAK-063 (Balipodect) (1, 3, 10 mg/kg oral) or vehicle 60 minutes before testing, and avoidance responses were recorded [2] For neurochemical studies, rats were administered TAK-063 (Balipodect) (1, 3, 10 mg/kg oral) or vehicle, euthanized at 1, 4, or 8 hours post-dosing, and striata were dissected. Tissue homogenates were analyzed for cAMP/cGMP, dopamine, serotonin, and their metabolites by HPLC [2] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
The oral bioavailability of TAK-063 (Balipodectt) was 78% in rats and 85% in dogs[1]. The plasma elimination half-life (t1/2) was 2.1 hours in rats, 4.3 hours in dogs, and 6.8 hours in cynomolgus monkeys[1]. In rats, peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was reached 1 hour after oral administration, exhibiting dose-proportional pharmacokinetic characteristics in the dose range of 0.3-10 mg/kg[2]. The drug has a large volume of distribution (Vd = 2.8 L/kg in rats), indicating its extensive tissue penetration[1]. Metabolic studies in human liver microsomes showed that TAK-063 (Balipodectt) is mainly metabolized by CYP3A4, with a smaller contribution from CYP2C9[1]. In rats, approximately 65% of the administered dose was excreted in feces (10%) and approximately 28% in urine, of which approximately 15% was excreted unchanged in feces [1]. The brain-to-plasma concentration ratio was 3.2 one hour after oral administration in rats [2].

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In acute toxicity studies, single oral administration of TAK-063 (Balipodectt) up to 1000 mg/kg in rats and mice did not cause death or significant clinical toxicity [1]. In a 28-day repeated-dose toxicity study in rats, daily oral administration of doses up to 100 mg/kg did not cause changes in body weight, food consumption, or clinical chemical parameters (ALT, AST, creatinine, BUN) [1]. TAK-063 (Balipodectt) has a plasma protein binding rate of 92-94% in human plasma [1]. In human liver microsomes, no significant inhibition of CYP enzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4) was observed at concentrations up to 10 μM [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Balipodect is being investigated in the clinical trial NCT01892189 (Effects of TAK-063 in preventing ketamine-induced changes in brain activity and psychotic-like symptoms in healthy adult men).
TAK-063 (Balipodect) is a potent, selective, orally effective phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) inhibitor [1][2]. PDE10A is primarily expressed in the striatum and regulates the levels of cyclic nucleotides (cAMP, cGMP), which are involved in dopamine and glutamate signaling pathways, which are associated with schizophrenia [1][2]. This drug exerts an antipsychotic-like effect by inhibiting PDE10A, thereby increasing striatal cAMP and cGMP levels, regulating dopamine D1/D2 receptor signaling, and improving sensory gating and cognitive deficits[2]. It was originally developed for the treatment of schizophrenia, with the aim of improving positive symptoms (hallucinations, delusions) and negative symptoms (social withdrawal, anhedonia)[1][2]. Its high selectivity for PDE10A minimizes the off-target effects associated with non-selective PDE inhibitors[1]. |
