A non-retinoid antagonist of retinol-binding protein 4 rescues phenotype in a model of Stargardt disease without inhibiting the visual cycle

Abstract: A primary pathological defect in the heritable eye disorder Stargardt disease is excessive accumulation of cytotoxic lipofuscin bisretinoids in the retina. Age-dependent accumulation of lipofuscin in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) matches the age-dependent increase in the incidence of the atrophic (dry) form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and therefore may be one of several pathogenic factors contributing to AMD progression. Lipofuscin bisretinoid synthesis in the retina depends on the influx … Show more

“…BPN-14136 exhibited overall good PK profile in both species (good oral bioavailability, moderate to low clearance and adequate exposure). The overall good PK profile of the compound in dog and NHP is consistent with good PK characteristics that BPN-14136 exhibited in our previous rat [27] and mouse [28] studies. Because the single oral dose administered in the dog PK study (2 mg kg −1 ) was lower than in PK experiments conducted in three other species (5 mg kg −1 in rat, mouse, and NHP) we compared exposure in four species by analyzing dose-normalized AUC inf and C max values (Fig 2).…”

“…), no PXR activation, and no significant off-target activity at the hERG channel or within a standard screening panel of fifty-five GPCRs, enzymes, ion channels, and transporters [27]. The compound showed a good pharmacokinetic (PK) profile in rat [27] and mouse [28] and normalized disease phenotype in the mouse model of Stargardt disease [28]. Encouraged by very good rodent PK characteristics and good preclinical efficacy in the Stargardt disease model, we conducted PK and PD studies of BPN-14136 in dogs and non-human primates and extended in vitro ADME characterization of this compound.…”
