Trelagliptin succinate

Описание

Similar to omarigliptin, trelagliptin succinate (XIX) is a highly selective, orally delivered inhibitor of DPP-4 developed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals and approved in Japan in March 2015 for the treatment of type 2 DM. Interestingly, trelagliptin is structurally similar to alogliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor also marketed by Takeda and described in our 2010 review, differing only in the presence of a fluorine in the 5-position of the cyanobenzyl moiety. Both trelagliptin and alogliptin are potent inhibitors of DPP-4, with IC50s of 1.3 and 5.3 nM, respectively. Notably, while similar drugs are dosed once daily, trelagliptin is the first DPP-4 inhibitor approved for onceweekly dosing. Kinetic analysis has revealed that trelagliptin is a substrate-competitive, reversible, slow-binding inhibitor (t1/2 for dissociation = ca. 30 min) of DPP-4, although the dissociation time is insufficient to explain its long-acting effects. In a phase III trial, once-weekly trelagliptin (100 mg) showed similar efficacy and safety to once-daily alogliptin (25 mg) in patients with type 2 DM inadequately controlled by diet and exercise. The medicinal chemistry discovery of trelagliptin and alogliptin as well as reviews of this class of compounds have been published.

Клиническое использование

Trelagliptin (SYR-472), a novel dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Trelagliptin (as the salt Trelagliptin succinate) was approved for use in Japan in March 2015. Takeda, the company that developed Trelagliptin, chose to not get approval for the drug in the USA and EU.
