Product Description
VX-150 is an orally bioactive, selective NaV1.8 inhibitor. VX-150 may be used to be studied in a variety of pain indications.
VX-150 is an orally bioavailable prodrug that rapidly converts into its active moiety, which is a highly selective inhibitor of the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8. It shows >400-fold selectivity for NaV1.8 over other sodium channel subtypes. VX-150 is being studied for various pain indications as a non-opioid analgesic candidate.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
VX-150 targets the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8. It acts as a selective inhibitor, blocking sodium influx through this channel. NaV1.8 is primarily expressed in peripheral sensory neurons and plays a key role in pain signaling. By inhibiting NaV1.8, VX-150 reduces the excitability of pain-sensing neurons and provides analgesic effects.
ln Vitro
The prodrug VX-150 is a highly selective NaV1.8 that is converted quickly to the active ingredient and has a restricted channel bioavailability, making it two times more selective than other sodium channel subtypes (>400-fold) [1].
In vitro, VX-150 is a highly selective NaV1.8 inhibitor relative to other sodium channel subtypes (>400-fold). The active moiety of the prodrug potently inhibits NaV1.8-mediated sodium currents. Specific IC50 values are not provided in the available sources.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for VX-150 are not extensively detailed in the available sources. The compound is an orally bioavailable prodrug that is being studied for various pain indications. It represents a promising non-opioid analgesic candidate.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro electrophysiology assay for VX-150 involves measuring the inhibition of NaV1.8 sodium currents. Cells expressing NaV1.8 are patch-clamped, and sodium currents are recorded in the presence of varying compound concentrations. The IC50 is determined by quantifying the reduction in current amplitude.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for VX-150 are performed using cell lines expressing NaV1.8. Cells are treated with VX-150 or its active metabolite, and sodium influx is measured using fluorescent sodium indicators or by electrophysiological recording. The compound's selectivity for NaV1.8 over other sodium channel subtypes is assessed.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for VX-150 are conducted in animal models of pain. The compound is administered orally, and its analgesic effects are assessed using behavioral tests such as the formalin test, von Frey filament test, or hot plate test. Specific animal models and dosing regimens are not detailed in the available sources.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
VX-150 is an orally bioavailable prodrug. It is rapidly converted to its active moiety, which has favorable properties for pain indications. Specific PK parameters such as half-life, bioavailability, and clearance are not detailed in the available sources.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity data for VX-150 are not reported in the available sources. As an investigational compound, it is used for research purposes only.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 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.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
