The pharmacokinetics of tenatoprazole (CAS 113712-98-4), a newly synthesized proton pump inhibitor, and its metabolites TU-501 (sulfide form) and TU-502 (sulfone form) were investigated in an ascending-dose parallel-group study at the dose levels of 10, 20, 40, 80 and 120 mg. A total of 30 healthy Caucasian male volunteers (6 in each dose group) received a single dose at Day 1 (fasted state) and repeated doses from Day 14 to Day 20. CYP2C19 genotype status was determined in all subjects. Concentrations of tenatoprazole, TU-501 and TU-502 in plasma and urine were measured by a validated HPLC/MS/MS method. The single and multiple-dose study provided reliable tolerance. After the single administrations, plasma concentrations reached a maximum between 2.5 and 4.3 h post dose, and thereafter decreased according to a terminal half live (T1/2) ranging from 4.8 to 7.7 h. Similar T1/2 were obtained on first and the last administration, and the steady state was reached after 5 days. Cmax and AUC increased linearly between 10 to 80 mg. However, with the 120 mg dose, the observed Cmax was higher than expected, especially at steady state. For TU-501 and TU-502 metabolites, Cmax and AUC increased linearly after repeated administration between 40 and 120 mg.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are benzimidazole-derivative chiral sulfoxides, frequently used in the treatment of gastric hyperacidity-related disorders. Due to their stereoselective metabolism, the eutomeric forms of PPIs can present a more advantageous pharmacokinetic profile by comparison with the distomers or racemates. Moreover, two representatives of the class are used in therapy both as racemates and as pure enantiomers (esomeprazole, dexlansoprazole).

Background: Racemic tenatoprazole 40 mg/day provides more prolonged acid suppression than esomeprazole 40 mg/day.
Aim: To compare pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles of tenatoprazole and esomeprazole.
Methods: A single-centre, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized, 4-way, cross-over study was conducted in 32 healthy male subjects.

The enantioselective pharmacokinetics of tenatoprazole were studied in Wistar rats after the administration of a single oral dose of rac-tenatoprazole. Serial plasma samples were collected; and the pharmacokinetic behavior of each enantiomer was characterized using a sequential achiral and chiral liquid chromatographic method. Tenatoprazole was extracted from a small aliquot of plasma (100 microl) by one-step extraction using hexane-dichloromethane-isopropanol (20:10:1, v/v/v) as extract solvent.

Many of the drugs currently used in medical practice are racemates. The enantiomers of a racemic drug differ in pharmacodynamics and/or pharmacokinetics, thus in some cases it is preferable to develop pure enantiomers by racemic switch. In a recent study by Pai et al, dexrabeprazole [R(+)-rabeprazole] (10 mg) was found to be more effective than rabeprazole (20 mg) in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Acid-related disorders are common management problems in clinical practice. The key to effective management is successful suppression of gastric acid production. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most potent acid suppressants available and are significantly more effective than histamine H(2) receptor antagonists.
