• Beschreibung

  Gabitril was launched in Denmark for use as an add-on therapy in patients refractory to other epilepsy therapies. The compound can be synthesized in five steps beginning with a bis-thiophenyl ketone derivative to produce the (R)-(-)- enantiomer. Its anti-epileptic activity resides in its potent and selective inhibition of GABA synaptosomal uptake. Tiagabine is selective for the GAT-1 GABA transporter in neurons and glia thus enhancing inhibitory GABAergic transmission. Because it has practically no effect on other uptake or receptor systems, it has a reduced potential for neurological side-effects. In particular, it does not have the benzodiazepine-like sedative effects. It is able to cross the blood brain barrier and is considered the most potent GABA uptake inhibitor known.

  A GABA uptake inhibitor

• Definition

  ChEBI: A piperidinemonocarboxylic acid that is (R)-nipecotic acid in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen has been replaced by a 1,1-bis(3-methyl-2-thienyl)but-1-en-4-yl group. A GABA reuptake inhibitor, it is used (generally as the hydroc loride salt) for the treatment of epilepsy.

• Manufacturing Process

  A solution of 34 ml of n-butyl lithium in 30 ml of anhydrous ether was cooled to -65°C under nitrogen and 5.3 ml of 3-methyl-2-bromothiophene in 10 ml anhydrous ether was added dropwise over a period of 10 min. The reaction mixture was stirred at -65°C for 1 h and 2.7 ml of ethyl 4-bromo-butyrate in 10 ml of anhydrous ether was added slowly. The reaction was stirred for 4 h while the temperature raised to -20°C, 20 ml water was added, and the mixture was stirred for 5 min after which the aqueous layer was removed. The ether layer was washed with 20 ml of water, and the combined aqueous phases were extracted with 50 ml of ether. The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, which after evaporation yielded 9 g of 1- bromo-4,4-bis(3-methylthien-2-yl)but-3-ene as an oil. This compound was without further purification used for coupling with ethyl nipecotate.
  A suspension of 5.0 g of 1-bromo-4,4-bis(3-methylthien-2-yl)but-3-ene, 3.4 g of nipecotic acid ethyl ester and 3.3 g of potassium carbonate in 150 ml of dry acetone was kept under reflux for 15 h. The reaction mixture was evaporated and, after addition of 30 ml of water, the resulting solution was extracted twice with 50 ml of ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate extracts were dried and evaporated leaving 7.3 g of an oil. By column chromatography on silica gel using methanol as eluent, N-(4,4-bis(3-methylthien-2-yl)but-3-enyl)nipecotic acid ethyl ester was isolated.
  5.3 g of N-(4,4-bis(3-methylthien-2-yl)but-3-enyl)nipecotic acid ethyl ester was dissolved in 100 ml of ethanol and 200 ml of an 8 N sodium hydroxide solution was added. The mixture was heated at reflux for 1 h, cooled and acidified by adding 10% hydrochloric acid. The resulting solution was evaporated and 100 ml of water was added to the residue. The resulting acid solution was extracted with ethyl acetate and the dried extract was evaporated to give (R)-N-(4,4-bis(3-methylthien-2-yl)but-3-enyl)nipecotic acid hydrochloride, melting point 187°-189°C.

• Biologische Funktion

  Tiagabine (Gabitril) blocks the reuptake of GABA into neurons and glia, thereby resulting in higher levels of GABA in the synaptic cleft. The ability to increase GABA concentrations is presumed to be involved in the effectiveness of tiagabine in the treatment of seizure disorders. It is primarily used in the treatment of partial complex seizures.Adverse effects of tiagabine administration include dizziness, somnolence, nervousness, nausea, and confusion.

• Allgemeine Beschreibung

  A glance at tiagabine’s structure suggests anuptake inhibitor. Reportedly, it blocks GABA reuptake asa major mode of its anticonvulsant activity. Its use isagainst partial seizures. Inhibitors of GABA transporter-1(GAT-1 inhibitors) increase extracellular GABA concentrationin the hippocampus, striatum, and cortex, therebyprolonging the inhibitory action of GABA released synaptically.Nipecotic acid is a potent inhibitor of GABA reuptakeinto synaptosomal membranes, neurons, and glialcells. However, nipecotic acid fails to cross the blood-brainbarrier following systemic administration because of itshigh degree of ionization. Tiagabine, marketed as thesingle R(-)-enantiomer, a potent GAT-1 inhibitor structurallyrelated to nipecotic acid, has an improved ability tocross the blood-brain barrier, and it has recently receivedFood and Drug Administration (FDA) approval as anAED.It is well absorbed and readily metabolized byCYP3A4 to an inactive metabolite, 5-oxo-tiagabine (oxidationof the thiophen ring) or eliminated as glucuronide ofthe parent molecule.
  Over 90% of tiagabine is metabolized by CYP3A4isozymes.The primary site of metabolic attack is the oxidationof the thiophen rings leading to 5-oxo-tiagabine thatlacks anticonvulsant activity and the glucuronidation via thecarboxylic function. Thus, the plasma concentrations oftiagabine would be greatly effected by any compound thatinduces or inhibits CYP3A4.

• Mechanism of action

  Tiagabine is a nipecotic acid derivative with an improved ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. It was rationally designed to be a GABA uptake inhibitor based on the fact that nipecotic acid (piperidine-3-carboxylic acid) inhibits GABA uptake by glial cells. Tiagabine binds to the GABA transporter GAT1, blocking the uptake of GABA into both neurons and glia, thus enhancing GABA-mediated inhibition. Tiagabine is presently approved for adjunct use in patients with epilepsy who are older than 12 years and have partial seizures not controlled by first-line drugs.

• Pharmakokinetik

  Tiagabine is well absorbed, with an oral bioavailability of 90 to 95%. It displays linear pharmacokinetics, with a plasma half-life of 5 to 8 hours, necessitating a multiple daily dosing regimen. It also is highly protein bound (96%). The major pathway of metabolism for tiagabine is oxidation by CYP3A4, followed by glucuronidation. Its pharmacokinetics are altered by the coadministration of enzyme-inducing AEDs, even though tiagabine does not appear to induce or inhibit hepatic microsomal metabolizing enzymes.

• Clinical Use

  Antiepileptic

• Nebenwirkungen

  Side effects are more common with tiagabine than with other adjunct drugs and most often involve the CNS. They include somnolence, headache, dizziness, tremor, abnormal thinking, depression, and psychosis. Furthermore, recent reports have implicated tiagabine in the development of nonconvulsive status epilepticus. There is an increased risk of seizure in patients being treated for off-label psychiatric indications. Tiagabine may interfere with visual color perception.
  Tiagabine does not affect the hepatic metabolism of other AEDs, but its half-life is decreased by enzyme-inducing AEDs, such as CBZ, phenytoin, and barbiturates. Other CYP3A4-inducing drugs may act similarly. Valproate decreases the protein binding of tiagabine. increasing its plasma concentration in these patients.
  Hepatic disease causes decreased clearance of tiagabine, and a dose reduction may be required. Renal disease does not affect elimination.

• Arzneimittelwechselwirkung

  Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
  Antidepressants: antagonism of anticonvulsant effect with SSRIs, tricyclics and MAOIs (convulsive threshold lowered); avoid with St John’s wort.
  Antiepileptics: concentration reduced by phenytoin, carbamazepine and phenobarbital.
  Antimalarials: mefloquine antagonises anticonvulsant.
  Antipsychotics: anticonvulsant effect antagonised.
  Orlistat: possibly increased risk of convulsions.

• Stoffwechsel

  Tiagabine has negligible renal clearance. Hepatic metabolism is the principle route for elimination of tiagabine. Less than 2
  % of the dose is excreted unchanged in urine and faeces. No active metabolites have been identified.
