Abstract
(R)-ND-336-designated as compound (R)-5-is a highly selective inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 with efficacy in accelerating diabetic wound healing in murine models. (R)-ND-336 belongs to the class of thiirane inhibitors of MMPs and it is currently undergoing Investigation New Drug (IND)-enabling studies. We investigated the in vitro metabolism of (R)-ND-336 using S9 fractions obtained from mice, rats, dogs, minipigs, monkeys, and humans in order to select the rodent and nonrodent species for toxicology studies. Three metabolites were observed. One metabolite, M3, was observed across all species. Metabolite M2 was found in rats, monkeys, and humans. Metabolite M1 was observed only in rats. The identities of the metabolites were suggested by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectroscopy (LC/MS-MS) analyses, which were authenticated by comparison to synthetic samples. Metabolites M2 and M3 arise from oxidative deamination of (R)-ND-336 by monoamine oxidase to give the arylaldehyde as a transient (and unobserved) intermediate. Reductive metabolism of this aldehyde gives the alcohol metabolite M2, while further oxidative metabolism of the aldehyde produces the carboxylate metabolite M3. A minor route of metabolism, seen only in rats, is N-acetylation of (R)-ND-336 to give the acetamide M1. The metabolism of (R)-ND-336 is distinctly different from that of the prototype member of this thiirane class ((+)-1, lacking the 4-aminomethyl aryl substituent) which is metabolized primarily by oxidation a to the sulfone to lead to a benzenesulfinate metabolite. All three metabolites are poorer MMP-9 inhibitors, compared to (R)-ND-336 (MMP-9, K-i = 19 nM): M3, MMP-9 IC50 > 100 mu M; M2, K = 390 nM; and M1, IC50 > 100 mu M). The rat and the minipig were selected as the rodent and nonrodent species, respectively, for toxicology studies.
