Use of PafuramidinePafuramidine (DB289) is an orally bioavailable prodrug of furamidine, which has clinical activity against Pneumocystis pneumonia.IC50 Value: 4.5 nM (In vitro inhibitory activity against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense) [4]Target: AntiparasiticDB289 (pafuramidine maleate; 2,5-bis[4-(N-methoxyamidino)phenyl]furan monomaleate) is a prodrug of DB75 (furamidine dihydrochloride; 2,5-bis(4-guanylphenyl)furan dihydrochloride), an aromatic dication related to pentamidine that has demonstrated good efficacy against African trypanosomiasis, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, and malaria, but lacks adequate oral availability. in vitro: The results of this investigation suggest that DB75 inhibits mitochondrial function. Yeast cells relying upon mitochondrial metabolism for energy production are especially sensitive to DB75 [1].in vivo: Clearance of DB289 approximated the liver plasma flow and its large volume of distribution was consistent with extensive tissue binding. Plasma protein binding of DB289 was 97 to 99% in four animal species and humans, but that of DB75 was noticeably less and more species- and concentration-dependent [2]. Despite excellent oral activity against early-stage sleeping sickness, oral administration of DB289 exhibited limited efficacy in mouse models of late-stage disease [3].Clinical trial: DB289, a novel orally active prodrug of DB75, is undergoing phase IIb clinical trials for early-stage human African trypanosomiasis, Pneumocystis jiroveci carinii pneumonia, and malaria [1]. |
