Velusetrag, formerly known as TD-5108, is a potent, selective, high efficacy 5-HT4 receptor agonist under development for the treatment of gastroparesis, chronic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome. Velusetrag significantly accelerated intestinal and colonic transit after single dosing and accelerated gastric emptying after multiple dosing.
| ln Vitro |
HEK-293 cells transfected with the h5-HT4(c) receptor exhibit a concentration-dependent rise in cAMP in response to velusetrag (10 pM-100 μM), with a pEC50 of 8.3 [1]. The guinea pig colonic longitudinal muscle/myenteric plexus (LMMP) contracts in response to velusetrag (100 pM-1 μM) in a concentration-dependent manner, with a pEC50 of 7.9 [1]. With a pEC50 of 7.9, velusetrag (0.001-10 μM) causes concentration-dependent relaxation of rat esophageal precontraction caused by carbachol (3 μM) [1].

| ln Vivo |
In PD mice, a single intraperitoneal injection of velusetrag (3 mg/kg) greatly enhances the facilitation of contextual fear extinction [3]. Mice treated with 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) exhibit an increase in cAMP levels in the hippocampus when administered with velusetrag (3 mg/kg) intraperitoneally [3]. In guinea pigs, velusetrag (0.003-3 mg/kg; single subcutaneous injection) shortens the time needed for dye excretion and accelerates intestinal transit in a dose-dependent manner [2]. In line with esophageal relaxation in rats, velusetrag (0.003–1 mg/kg; single intravenous administration) dose-dependently increases intercrystalline distance [2].
|
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male C57BL/6 mice (7-8 weeks old) were injected with MPTP[3].
Doses: 3 mg/kg. Route of Administration: single ip. Experimental Results: Improved facilitation of contextual fear extinction. There was no improvement in impaired rotarod performance in PD mice. |

| Additional Infomation |
Velusetrag is currently in clinical trials for the treatment of gastroparesis and Alzheimer's disease. It is a highly selective serotonin receptor agonist effective in patients with chronic constipation. The drug was developed by Theravance Medical Systems. Theravance discovered Velusetrag using its multivalent drug design technology in its research program dedicated to finding new treatments for gastrointestinal motility disorders.
Mechanism of Action Velusetrag is a potent, highly selective agonist with high intrinsic activity against the 5-HT4 receptor. Compared to other 5-HT receptor types, Velusetrag exhibits more than 500 times higher binding selectivity to the human 5-HT4 receptor. Theravance anticipates that Velusetrag's high selectivity makes it a potentially more effective and safer treatment for severe constipation and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) that may be predominantly constipation-related. Pharmacodynamics Preclinical studies in vivo at Velusetrag showed that the compound exhibited potent 5-HT4 receptor agonist activity via multiple routes of administration, including oral administration, and provided strong prokinetic effects in the digestive tracts of three different animals, consistent with its highly efficient and selective in vitro 5-HT4 receptor agonist properties. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 5.75 mg/mL (11.39 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 57.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 5.48 mg/mL (10.86 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 54.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
