Selatogrel is a potent and selective reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist in development for early treatment of acute myocardial infarction via subcutaneous (s.c.) self-injection.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground And Objectives: Selatogrel is a potent, reversible, and selective antagonist of the platelet P2Y receptor currently developed for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In the completed Phase I/II studies, selatogrel was subcutaneously (s.c.

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, four-period crossover study investigated the effect of daridorexant at a therapeutic and supratherapeutic dose on QT interval duration.
Methods: Thirty-six healthy subjects received single oral doses of daridorexant (50 mg; 200 mg), moxifloxacin (400 mg; open label), and placebo.
In the context of streamlining generic approval, this study assessed whether pharmacokinetics (PK) could elucidate the pulmonary fate of orally inhaled drug products (OIDPs). Three fluticasone propionate (FP) dry powder inhaler (DPI) formulations (A-4.5, B-3.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFIn vitro studies have indicated that the P2Y12 receptor antagonist selatogrel is a substrate of organic anion-transporting-polypeptide (OATP)1B1 and OATP1B3 that are known to mediate hepatic uptake. Selatogrel is primarily eliminated via the biliary route. Therefore, the study aim was to investigate the effect of rifampin-mediated OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 inhibition on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of selatogrel.

Antiplatelet drugs such as acetylsalicylic acid and P2Y12 receptor antagonists are cornerstone treatments for the prevention of thrombotic events in patients with coronary artery disease. Clopidogrel has long been the gold standard but has major pharmacological limitations such as a slow onset and long duration of effect, as well as weak platelet inhibition with high inter-individual pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic variability.

Methods: Both approaches derived the total lung doses and the central to peripheral lung deposition ratios from clinically relevant cascade impactor studies, but differed in the way the pulmonary absorption rate was derived. In approach 1, the rate of in vivo drug dissolution/absorption was predicted for the included ICSs from in vitro aerodynamic particle size distribution and in vitro drug solubility estimates measured in an in vivo predictive dissolution medium.
