Abstract
The In vitro metabolism of two alpha-1A-adrenergic antagonists, RWJ-69205 and RWJ-69471 (phthalimide-phenylpiperazine analogs), was assessed after 30 and 60 min incubations with rat, dog and human hepatic S9 fractions in the presence of an NADPH-generating system. Unchanged RWJ-69205 (> or = 72% of the sample in all species) plus 3 metabolites from the RWJ-69205 incubations, and unchanged RWJ-69471 (> or = 60% of the sample in all species) and 7 metabolites from the RWJ-69471 incubations, were profiled, quantified, and tentatively identified on the basis of API-MS and MS/MS data. The formation of RWJ-69205 and RWJ-69471 metabolites are via the following five metabolic pathways: 1. phenylhydroxylation, 2. O-dealkylation, 3. oxidative N-dealkylation, 4. N-dephenylation, and 5. dehydration. Pathway 1 formed 2 major/moderate hydroxy-phenyl metabolites of 2 analogs (4-17%) in all species, and pathway 2 produced 2 O-desisopropyl metabolites of 2 analogs in major/moderate (7-16%) in rat and human, and in trace (< 1%) in dog; in conjunction with pathway 1, yielded a minor diphenolic metabolite (< 1-2%) in RWJ-69471. Pathway 3 formed a minor N-dealkylated metabolite, isopropoxyphenyl piperazine (< 1-6%) in all species of 2 analogs. Pathways 4 and 5 produced 2 minor N-desphenyl metabolite and dehydrated metabolite, respectively, in rat and human S9 (< or = 1-2%) in RWJ-69471. Both RWJ-69205 and RWJ-69471 were less extensively metabolized in the dog. However, rat and human appeared to metabolize RWJ-69471 more extensively than RWJ-69205 in this hepatic system.
