Valdecoxib C화학적 특성, 용도, 생산
개요
Valdecoxib is a second-generation COX-2 inhibitor, developed as a follow-up to celecoxib for the oral once-daily treatment of osteoarthritis, adult rheumatoid arthritis and menstrual pain. Valdecoxib is approximately 28,000-fold more selective against human recombinant COX-2 than human recombinant COX-1. In an ex viva human whole blood assay, the I&O values against COX-2 and COX-1 were respectively 0.89 PM and 25.4 FM. In animal models, valdecoxib possesses excellent oral activity as an antiinflammatory. In rats, valdecoxib potently inhibited carrageenan footpad edema and adjuvant-induced arthritis.
화학적 성질
Valdecoxib is a white crystalline powder that is relatively insoluble in water (10 μg/mL) at 25°C and pH 7.0, soluble in methanol and ethanol, and freely soluble in organic solvents and alkaline (pH=12) aqueous solutions.
용도
Valdecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties in animal models. It is a potent and selective inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis primarily through inhibition of COX-2. Valdecoxib is used to relieve some symptoms caused by arthritis (rheumatism), such as inflammation, swelling, stiffness, and joint pain.
제조 방법
The step for the synthesis of valdecoxib: Deoxybenzoin is converted to the corresponding oxime by treatment with hydroxylamine under basic conditions with sodium acetate in aqueous ethanol or in toluene in presence of potassium hydroxide in absolute ethanol. The treatment of the oxime under nitrogen with two equivalents of butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran is followed by cyclization in ethyl acetate or acetic anhydride to the isoxazoline derivative. Finally, treatment of the isoxazoline with cold chlorosulfuric acid followed by reaction of the intermediate with aqueous ammonia afforded valdecoxib.
정의
ChEBI: Valdecoxib is a member of the class of isoxazoles that is isoxazole which is substituted at positions 3, 4 and 5 by phenyl, p-sulfamoylphenyl and methyl groups, respectively. A selective cyclooxygenase 2-inhibitor, it used as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for the treatment of arthritis from 2001 until 2005, when it was withdrawn following concerns of an associated increased risk of heart attack and stroke. It has a role as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, a non-narcotic analgesic, an antirheumatic drug and an antipyretic. It is a member of isoxazoles and a sulfonamide.
일반 설명
Valdecoxib (VCX) is a diaryl substituted isoxazole compound. It comprises of sulfonyl propanamide and is a metabolite of parecoxib.
Pharmacokinetics
Valdecoxib is freely soluble in alkaline aqueous solutions. At recommended doses, the mean oral bioavailability for
valdecoxib is 83%, and the time to peak concentration is approximately 3 hours. Time to peak plasma concentration
was delayed by 1 to 2 hours when administered with a high-fat meal. Protein binding is very high at 98%. Valdecoxib
exhibits linear pharmacokinetics over the usual clinical dose range. Valdecoxib is extensively metabolized in humans.
The primary metabolite for valdecoxib involved CYP2C9 hydroxylation of the 5-Me group, which was further
metabolized to the inactive carboxylate, and N-hydroxylation at the sulfonamide moiety. Oxidative breakdown of the
N-hydroxy sulfonamide function group led to the formation of the corresponding sulfinic acid and sulfonic acid
metabolites. The O-and N-glucuronides were the major urinary metabolites. Only 3% of the administered dose was
recovered in urine as unchanged valdecoxib.
Clinical Use
Valdecoxib is approved for the relief of the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis and adult rheumatoid arthritis and
for the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea. Valdecoxib is contraindicated for the treatment of postoperative pain
immediately following coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Clinical claims and research
Valdecoxib is a substrate of CYP3A4 but no metabolism interference was seen with commonly used synthetic narcotics, alfentanil and fentanyl. Clinical studies have shown that valdecoxib is as effective as naproxen in treating osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and dysmenornhoea. The efficacy of valdecoxib was also demonstrated in managing postoperative pain (oral and orthopedic surgery) with effective analgesia and time to rescue medication superior to those obtained with rofecoxib. Several clinical trials showed that valdecoxib has a better upper gastrointestinal safety profile compared to naproxen, ibuprofen or diclofenac and does not affect platelet function. Less abdominal pain, dyspepsia and constipation were observed with valdecoxib than with naproxen. Valdecoxib is contraindicated in patients with a history of allergic reactions to sulfonamides due to reported anaphylactic and skin reactions.
Mode of action
Valdecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties in animal models. The mechanism of action is believed to be due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis primarily through inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). At therapeutic plasma concentrations in humans valdecoxib does not inhibit cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1).
