Metabolism and Mass Balance of the Novel Nonsteroidal Androgen Receptor Inhibitor Darolutamide in Humans.

The biotransformation and excretion of darolutamide were investigated in a phase I study. Six healthy male volunteers received a single dose of 300 mg C-darolutamide as an oral solution in the fasted state. Plasma, urine, and feces samples were analyzed for mass balance evaluation by liquid scintillation counting (LSC).

Discovery and Characterization of BAY 1214784, an Orally Available Spiroindoline Derivative Acting as a Potent and Selective Antagonist of the Human Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Receptor as Proven in a First-In-Human Study in Postmenopausal Women.

The growth of uterine fibroids is sex hormone-dependent and commonly associated with highly incapacitating symptoms. Most treatment options consist of the control of these hormonal effects, ultimately blocking proliferative estrogen signaling (, oral contraceptives/antagonization of human gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor [hGnRH-R] activity). Full hGnRH-R blockade, however, results in menopausal symptoms and affects bone mineralization, thus limiting treatment duration or demanding estrogen add-back approaches.

Absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of darolutamide (a novel non-steroidal androgen receptor antagonist) in rats.

1. Darolutamide is a novel selective androgen receptor antagonist consisting of two pharmacologically equipotent diastereoisomers. The absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion properties of darolutamide in rats are reported.

Drug-Drug Interaction Potential of Darolutamide: In Vitro and Clinical Studies.

Background And Objectives: Darolutamide is a novel androgen receptor (AR) antagonist approved for the treatment of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC). Accordingly, the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of darolutamide was investigated in both nonclinical and clinical studies.

Methods: In vitro studies were performed to determine the potential for darolutamide to be a substrate, inducer or inhibitor for cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms, other metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters.

Evaluation of Clinically Relevant Drug-Drug Interactions and Population Pharmacokinetics of Darolutamide in Patients with Nonmetastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: Results of Pre-Specified and Post Hoc Analyses of the Phase III ARAMIS Trial.

Background: Darolutamide, an androgen receptor antagonist with a distinct molecular structure, significantly prolonged metastasis-free survival versus placebo in the phase III ARAMIS study in men with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC). In this population, polypharmacy for age-related comorbidities is common and may increase drug-drug interaction (DDI) risks. Preclinical/phase I study data suggest darolutamide has a low DDI potential-other than breast cancer resistance protein/organic anion transporter protein substrates (e.

Characterization of the Pharmacokinetics of Vilaprisan: Bioavailability, Excretion, Biotransformation, and Drug-Drug Interaction Potential.

Background And Objectives: In-vitro data suggest that clearance of vilaprisan is mediated by cytochrome P450 3A4 (oxidation) and aldoketoreductases (reduction). To fully understand the elimination and biotransformation pathways of vilaprisan, a selective progesterone receptor modulator, and to quantify the impact of cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibition on the pharmacokinetics of vilaprisan, two clinical studies in healthy postmenopausal women were conducted.

Methods: In study 1, pharmacokinetics, mass balance, and metabolite patterns were determined after single oral administration of 5 mg of [C]-labeled vilaprisan in six subjects.

3,3'-dipyridyl BINOL ligands. Synthesis and application in enantioselective addition of Et2Zn to aldehydes.

3,3'-di(2-pyridyl) BINOLs (4), prepared in three steps from commercial substances by a combined directed ortho metalation-Negishi cross-coupling protocol, constitute new members of the BINOL ligand family. They are among the most selective, general ligands, providing equal or greater stereoselectivities in the Et2Zn addition to benzaldehydes and cinnamaldehydes (Table 3) than any single BINOL ligand reported to date.
