Abstract: | The pharmacokinetics of YH1885 were evaluated after intravenous (iv) and oral administrations of the drug to rats and dogs. The reason for the low extent of bioavailability (F) of YH1885 after oral administration of the drug to rats and the absorption of the drug from various rat gastrointestinal (GI) segments were also investigated. After iv administration of YH1885, 5-20 mg kg(-1), to rats, the pharmacokinetic parameters of YH1885 seem to be independent of the drug at the dose ranges studied. After oral administration of YH1885, 50-200 mg kg(-1), to rats, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 12 or 24 h (AUC(0-12 h) or AUC(0-24 h)) was proportional to the oral dose of the drug, 50-100 mg kg(-1), however, the AUC(0-24 h) value at 200 mg kg(-1) increased with less proportion to the dose increase (324, 689, and 815 microg x min mL(-1) for 50, 100, and 200 mg kg(-1), respectively) due to the poor water solubility of the drug. This was proved by the considerable increase in the percentages of the oral dose remaining in the entire GI tract as unchanged YH1885 at 24 h (11.8, 15.3, and 42.8% for 50, 100, and 200 mg kg(-1), respectively). The F value after oral administration of YH1885 to rats was relatively low; the value was approximately 40% at the oral dose of 50 and 100 mg kg(-1). The reason for the low F in rats was investigated. The liver showed the highest metabolic activity for YH1885 based on an in vitro rat tissue homogenate study; hence, the liver first-pass effect was estimated. The value of AUC after intraportal administration of the drug, 5 mg kg(-1), was approximately 70% (116 versus 163 microg x min mL(-1)) of that after iv administration of the drug, 5 mg kg(-1), to rats; the liver first-pass effect of YH1885 in rats was estimated to be approximately 30%. The total body clearance of YH1885 after iv administration of the drug, 5-20 mg kg(-1), to rats were considerably lower than the cardiac output of rats, indicating that the lung and/or heart first-pass effect of YH1885 could be negligible in rats. After oral administration of YH1885, 50 and 100 mg kg(-1), to rats, the F value was approximately 40%, and approximately 15% of the oral dose was recovered from the entire GI tract as unchanged YH1885 at 24 h, and 30% of the oral dose disappeared with the liver first-pass effect. Therefore, the remainder, approximately 15% of the oral dose, could have disappeared with the small intestine first-pass effect and/or degradation of the drug in the GI tract. YH1885 was absorbed from ileum, duodenum, and jejunum of rat, however, YH1885 was under the detection limit in plasma when the drug was instilled into the rat stomach and large intestine. After iv administration of YH1885, 5-20 mg kg(-1), to dogs, the pharmacokinetic parameters of YH1885 also seemed to be independent of the drug at the dose ranges studied. However, after oral administration of YH1885, 0.5 and 2 g per whole body weight, to dogs, the AUC(0-10 h) values were not significantly different (96.8 versus 98.2 microg x min mL(-1)) and this could be due to the poor water-solubility of the drug. YH1885 was not detected in the urine after both iv and oral administration of the drug to both rats and dogs. |
