F15845 is a cardiac drug proposed to have beneficial effects for the treatment of angina pectoris, arrhythmias and ischemia by inhibiting the persistent sodium current. [1] [2] The drug, currently in phase II of clinical trials, targets the persistent sodium current with selectivity and produces minimal adverse effects in current experimental studies. [1] [3] [4] [2]

Contents

Persistent sodium current

In the cardiac myocyte, the persistent sodium current corresponds to the delayed inactivation of the major sodium channel Nav1.5. [3] In a functional muscle cell, this sodium channel plays an important role in the propagation of an action potential through the heart. Sodium influx is a key component in the initial depolarisation of the cell, followed by quick inactivation to allow for a plateau phase and calcium influx. [1] Persistent sodium current prevents this normal action potential pattern, resulting in a prolonged action potential and increased sodium levels within the cardiac myocyte. [5] Under these conditions the heart is more susceptible to damage and malfunctions. [6] Inhibition of the persistent sodium current is a novel therapeutic target to prevent long term changes in the heart resulting from ischemia. [3] [4] Hypoxia, heart failure and oxygen derived free radicals are all factors believed to activate the persistent sodium current. [1] In ischemia, the major damage to the cardiac myocyte, due to hypoxia, is seen following the reperfusion of blood. [4] High intracellular sodium levels from the persistent current results in high influx of calcium during reperfusion; leading to calcium overload, hypercontraction and cardiac myocyte death. [4] The main contributor to this calcium overload is the sodium/calcium exchanger working in reverse, driven by the high intracellular concentration of sodium exchanging out of the cell with the extracellular calcium moving in. [6]

Pharmacology

F15845 has been shown to selectively inhibit the persistent sodium current of Nav1.5 [1] exerting cardioprotective effects following ischemia. [3] [4] In vitro testing showed minimal effects of F15845 on other important ion channels of the heart, including major Ca2+ and K+ channels. [1] This characteristic is thought to account for the limited effect of F15845 to change other heart parameters such as basal cardiac function, hemodynamic functions and ventricular fibrillation. [1] [2] F15845 was also shown to exert improved effects when the membrane potential was depolarized, [1] by acting on the extracellular side of the channel. [2] This effect of the F15845 on the depolarised state of the persistent sodium current renders the drug particularly useful in ischemic conditions when the cardiac cell is depolarised. [1]

F15845 and angina

The F15845 drug has been developed as a potential drug for therapy of angina pectoris. [1] Current anti-anginal drugs, aiming to prevent ischemic events resulting from angina, fail to completely relieve symptoms without further cardiovascular effects (Vacher et al., 2009). In addition to F15845 being more selective to the persistent sodium current compared to its counterparts, it has also been shown to inhibit ST segment changes [1] in the canine model of angina. [7]

Angina, also known as angina pectoris, is chest pain or pressure, usually caused by insufficient blood flow to the heart muscle (myocardium). It is most commonly a symptom of coronary artery disease.

Calcium channel blockers (CCB), calcium channel antagonists or calcium antagonists are a group of medications that disrupt the movement of calcium through calcium channels. Calcium channel blockers are used as antihypertensive drugs, i.e., as medications to decrease blood pressure in patients with hypertension. CCBs are particularly effective against large vessel stiffness, one of the common causes of elevated systolic blood pressure in elderly patients. Calcium channel blockers are also frequently used to alter heart rate, to prevent peripheral and cerebral vasospasm, and to reduce chest pain caused by angina pectoris.

Amlodipine, sold under the brand name Norvasc among others, is a calcium channel blocker medication used to treat high blood pressure, coronary artery disease (CAD) and variant angina. It is taken orally.

Vasospasm refers to a condition in which an arterial spasm leads to vasoconstriction. This can lead to tissue ischemia and tissue death (necrosis). Cerebral vasospasm may arise in the context of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Symptomatic vasospasm or delayed cerebral ischemia is a major contributor to post-operative stroke and death especially after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Vasospasm typically appears 4 to 10 days after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Betaxolol</span> Chemical compound

Betaxolol is a selective beta1 receptor blocker used in the treatment of hypertension and angina. Being selective for beta1 receptors, it typically has fewer systemic side effects than non-selective beta-blockers, for example, not causing bronchospasm as timolol may. Betaxolol also shows greater affinity for beta1 receptors than metoprolol. In addition to its effect on the heart, betaxolol reduces the pressure within the eye. This effect is thought to be caused by reducing the production of the liquid within the eye. The precise mechanism of this effect is not known. The reduction in intraocular pressure reduces the risk of damage to the optic nerve and loss of vision in patients with elevated intraocular pressure due to glaucoma.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Variant angina</span> Medical condition

Variant angina, also known as Prinzmetal angina,vasospastic angina, angina inversa, coronary vessel spasm, or coronary artery vasospasm, is a syndrome typically consisting of angina. Variant angina differs from stable angina in that it commonly occurs in individuals who are at rest or even asleep, whereas stable angina is generally triggered by exertion or intense exercise. Variant angina is caused by vasospasm, a narrowing of the coronary arteries due to contraction of the heart's smooth muscle tissue in the vessel walls. In comparison, stable angina is caused by the permanent occlusion of these vessels by atherosclerosis, which is the buildup of fatty plaque and hardening of the arteries.

The pacemaker current is an electric current in the heart that flows through the HCN channel or pacemaker channel. Such channels are important parts of the electrical conduction system of the heart and form a component of the natural pacemaker.

An ATP-sensitive potassium channel is a type of potassium channel that is gated by intracellular nucleotides, ATP and ADP. ATP-sensitive potassium channels are composed of Kir6.x-type subunits and sulfonylurea receptor (SUR) subunits, along with additional components. KATP channels are found in the plasma membrane; however some may also be found on subcellular membranes. These latter classes of KATP channels can be classified as being either sarcolemmal ("sarcKATP"), mitochondrial ("mitoKATP"), or nuclear ("nucKATP").

JTV-519 (K201) is a 1,4-benzothiazepine derivative that interacts with many cellular targets. It has many structural similarities to diltiazem, a Ca2+ channel blocker used for treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris and some types of arrhythmias. JTV-519 acts in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of cardiac myocytes by binding to and stabilizing the ryanodine receptor (RyR2) in its closed state. It can be used in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, heart failure, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) and store overload-induced Ca2+ release (SOICR). Currently, this drug has only been tested on animals and its side effects are still unknown. As research continues, some studies have also found a dose-dependent response; where there is no improvement seen in failing hearts at 0.3 μM and a decline in response at 1 μM.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Budiodarone</span> Chemical compound

Budiodarone (ATI-2042) is an antiarrhythmic agent and chemical analog of amiodarone that is currently being studied in clinical trials. Amiodarone is considered the most effective antiarrhythmic drug available, but its adverse side effects, including hepatic, pulmonary and thyroid toxicity as well as multiple drug interactions, are discouraging its use. Budiodarone only differs in structure from amiodarone through the presence of a sec-butyl acetate side chain at position 2 of the benzofuran moiety. This side chain allows for budiodarone to have a shorter half-life in the body than amiodarone which allows it to have a faster onset of action and metabolism while still maintaining similar electrophysiological activity. The faster metabolism of budiodarone allows for fewer adverse side effects than amiodarone principally due to decreased levels of toxicity in the body.
