Fenofibrate is used as an adjunct to dietary therapy to decrease elevated serum total and LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, and apo B concentrations, and to increase HDL-cholesterol concentrations in the management of primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia, including heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia and other causes of hypercholesterolemia.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1731
Fenofibrate also is used as an adjunct to dietary therapy in the management of patients with elevated serum triglyceride concentrations. Efficacy of the drug in reducing the risk of pancreatitis in patients with marked elevations in triglyceride concentrations (i.e., greater than 2000 mg/dL) has not been established. Fenofibrate is not indicated for use in patients with type I hyperlipoproteinemia who have elevated triglyceride and chylomicron concentrations but normal VLDL-cholesterol concentrations.

/EXPL THER/ Inflammation is implicated in chronic heart failure. In this study, the potential inhibitory effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) activator fenofibrate on monocyte adhesion in chronic heart failure patients was investigated in vitro. ... Isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells were collected from 36 patients (aged 65 +/- 8 years) with symptomatic chronic heart failure and from 12 healthy control subjects. The cultured human aortic endothelial cells were stimulated with or without 2 ng mL(-1) tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and the inhibitory effects of fenofibrate at 25, 50, 100 and 200 uM on endothelial mononuclear cell adhesion were tested. Furthermore, the human aortic endothelial cells were stimulated with 70% sera obtained from chronic heart failure patients and control individuals, respectively, with or without pretreatments with fenofibrate. The endothelial expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was then confirmed by mRNA expression and Western blot. ... The increased adhesion of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to TNF-alpha-stimulated human aortic endothelial cells in chronic heart failure patients was reduced when the human aortic endothelial cells were pretreated with fenofibrate (31% inhibition, P = 0.0121). However, pretreatment of the isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected from chronic heart failure patients with fenofibrate failed to suppress their adherence to TNF-alpha-stimulated human aortic endothelial cells. Furthermore, stimulation of cultured human aortic endothelial cells with chronic heart failure patient sera significantly increased VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression, which could also be inhibited by fenofibrate. The fenofibrate directly inhibits monocyte binding by TNF-alpha-activated human aortic endothelial cells, probably through preventing up-regulation of cell adhesion molecules by endothelial cells in response to inflammatory stimuli. This PPARalpha activator may have the potential to ameliorate vascular inflammation in patients with chronic heart failure.

Severe rashes requiring hospitalization and corticosteroid therapy, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, have been reported rarely with fenofibrate in clinical studies. Urticaria and rash also have been reported in approximately 1% of patients receiving fenofibrate therapy in controlled trials.

Fenofibrate, like other fibric acid derivatives (e.g., gemfibrozil), may increase cholesterol excretion in bile, resulting in cholelithiasis. If gallbladder studies indicate the presence of gallstones, fenofibrate should be discontinued.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1732
Liver function tests should be performed periodically (i.e., every 3 months) during the first 12 months of therapy. If serum aminotransferase concentrations of 3 times the upper limit of normal or higher persist, fenofibrate therapy should be discontinued.

Fenofibrate is indicated as adjunctive therapy to diet to reduce elevated LDL-C, Total-C, Triglycerides, and Apo B, and to increase HDL-C adults with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia. Fenofibrate is also indicated to treat adults with severe hypertriglyceridemia.
FDA Label
Fenofibrate is a fibrate that activates peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPAR) to alter lipid metabolism and treat primary hypercholesterolemia, mixed dyslipidemia, and severe hypertriglyceridemia. Fenofibrate requires once daily dosing and has a half life of 19-27 hours so its duration of action is long. Fenofibrate capsules are given at a dose of 50-150mg daily so the therapeutic index is wide. Patients should be counselled about the risk of rhabdomyolysis, myopathy, and cholelithiasis when taking fibrates.
Hypolipidemic Agents
Substances that lower the levels of certain LIPIDS in the BLOOD. They are used to treat HYPERLIPIDEMIAS. (See all compounds classified as Hypolipidemic Agents.)

Absorption
A single 300mg oral dose of fenofibrate reaches a Cmax of 6-9.5mg/L with a Tmax of 4-6h in healthy, fasting volunteers.
Route of Elimination
5-25% of a dose of fenofibrate is eliminated in the feces, while 60-88% is eliminated in the urine. 70-75% of the dose recovered in the urine is in the form of fenofibryl glucuronide and 16% as fenofibric acid.
Volume of Distribution
The volume of distribution of fenofibrate is 0.89L/kg, and can be as high as 60L.
Clearance
The oral clearance of fenofibrate is 1.1L/h in young adults and 1.2L/h in the elderly.
Upon multiple dosing of fenofibrate, fenofibric acid steady state is achieved within 9 days. Plasma concentrations of fenofibric acid at steady state are approximately double those following a single dose. Serum protein binding was approximately 99% in normal and hyperlipidemic subjects.

The absolute bioavailability of fenofibrate cannot be determined as the compound is virtually insoluble in aqueous media suitable for injection. However, fenofibrate is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Following oral administration in healthy volunteers, approximately 60% of a single dose of radiolabelled fenofibrate appeared in urine, primarily as fenofibric acid and its glucuronate conjugate, and 25% was excreted in the feces. Peak plasma levels of fenofibric acid occur within 6 to 8 hours after administration.
Thomson Health Care Inc.; Physicians' Desk Reference 63 ed., Montvale, NJ 2009, p. 520
After absorption, fenofibrate is mainly excreted in the urine in the form of metabolites, primarily fenofibric acid and fenofibric acid glucuronide. After administration of radiolabelled fenofibrate, approximately 60% of the dose appeared in the urine and 25% was excreted in the feces.

The metabolism and disposition of orally administered single doses of (14)C fenofibrate (isopropyl 2-[4-(4-chlorobenzoyl)phenoxy]-2- methylpropionate) have been studied in rat, guinea pig, and dog. In rats, the urinary excretion of (14)C in 5 days varied from 11 to 51% of the dose and was markedly dependent upon the dose form given. The interpretation of these data in terms of factors affecting the absorption of fenofibrate from the gut is complicated by the enterohepatic recirculation of metabolites. The tissue distribution of (14)C after oral administration of an ethanolic solution of fenofibrate has been studied in the rat. The only tissues in which the concentration of (14)C exceeded that in the blood were the organs of absorption and elimination, the gut, liver, and kidneys. Guinea pigs excreted 53% of the dose in the urine in 5 days, with a further 34% in the feces, while in dogs the corresponding figures were 9% and 81%, respectively. In all three species, all the urinary metabolites were products of ester hydrolysis, and the principal excretion product was "reduced fenofibric acid" which arose by subsequent carbonyl reduction. Glucuronidation of fenofibric acid and "reduced fenofibric acid" was a very minor reaction in the rat and guinea pig and was not detected in the dog. In addition, polar unknown metabolite(s) were detected in all three species, but were not investigated further. The results are discussed in terms of the comparative disposition of fenofibrate and other hypolipidemic agents and the contribution of these findings to the safety assessment of such drugs.

Fenofibrate is completely hydrolyzed by liver carboxylesterase 1 to fenofibric acid. Fenofibric acid is either glucuronidated or has its carbonyl group reduced to a benzhydrol that is then glucuronidated. Glucuronidation of fenofibrate metabolites is mediated by UGT1A9. Reduction of the carbonyl group is primarily mediated by CBR1 and minorly by AKR1C1, AKR1C2, AKR1C3, and AKR1B1.
... The metabolism of fenofibrate was investigated in cynomolgus monkeys by ultraperformance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOFMS)-based metabolomics. Urine samples were collected before and after oral doses of fenofibrate. The samples were analyzed in both positive-ion and negative-ion modes by UPLC-QTOFMS, and after data deconvolution, the resulting data matrices were subjected to multivariate data analysis. Pattern recognition was performed on the retention time, mass/charge ratio, and other metabolite-related variables. Synthesized or purchased authentic compounds were used for metabolite identification and structure elucidation by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Several metabolites were identified, including fenofibric acid, reduced fenofibric acid, fenofibric acid ester glucuronide, reduced fenofibric acid ester glucuronide, and compound X. Another two metabolites (compound B and compound AR), not previously reported in other species, were characterized in cynomolgus monkeys. More importantly, previously unknown metabolites, fenofibric acid taurine conjugate and reduced fenofibric acid taurine conjugate were identified, revealing a previously unrecognized conjugation pathway for fenofibrate.

Fenofibrate has been widely used for the treatment of dyslipidemia with a long history. Species differences of its metabolism were reported, but its metabolites in rodent have not been fully investigated. Urine and plasma samples were collected before and after oral dosages of fenofibrate in Sprague-Dawley rats. Urine samples were subjected to ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-QTOF-MS) analysis, and projection to latent structures discriminant analysis was used for the identification of metabolites. New metabolites in urine and plasma were also studied by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The metabolism pathway was studied in rat hepatocytes. Synthesized and purchased authentic compounds were used for metabolite identification by LC-MS/MS. Five ever-reported metabolites were identified and another four new ones were found. Among these new metabolites, fenofibric acid taurine and reduced fenofibric acid taurine indicate new phase II conjugation pathway of fenofibrate.

Following oral administration, fenofibrate is rapidly hydrolyzed by esterases to the active metabolite, fenofibric acid; no unchanged fenofibrate is detected in plasma. Fenofibric acid is primarily conjugated with glucuronic acid and then excreted in urine. A small amount of fenofibric acid is reduced at the carbonyl moiety to a benzhydrol metabolite which is, in turn, conjugated with glucuronic acid and excreted in urine. In vivo metabolism data indicate that neither fenofibrate nor fenofibric acid undergo oxidative metabolism (e.g., cytochrome P450) to a significant extent.

Fenofibric acid, the active metabolite of fenofibrate, has a half life of 23 hours. Fenofibrate has a half life of 19-27 hours in healthy subjects and up to 143 hours in patients with renal failure.
Fenofibric acid is eliminated with a half-life of 20 hours, allowing once daily administration in a clinical setting. /Fenofibric acid/

Fenofibrate activates peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPAR), increasing lipolysis, activating lipoprotein lipase, and reducing apoprotein C-III. PPAR is a nuclear receptor and its activation alters lipid, glucose, and amino acid homeostasis. Activation of PPAR activates transcription of gene transcription and translation that generates peroxisomes filled with hydrogen peroxide, reactive oxygen species, and hydroxyl radicals that also participate in lipolysis. This mechanism of increased lipid metabolism is also associated with increased oxidative stress on the liver. In rare cases this stress can lead to cirrhosis and chronic active hepatitis.
Fenofibrate is a synthetic ligand for the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) alpha and has been widely used in the treatment of metabolic disorders, especially hyperlipemia, due to its lipid-lowering effect. The molecular mechanism of lipid-lowering is relatively well defined: an activated PPARalpha forms a PPAR-RXR heterodimer and this regulates the transcription of genes involved in energy metabolism by binding to PPAR response elements in their promoter regions, so-called "trans-activation". In addition, fenofibrate also has anti-inflammatory and anti-athrogenic effects in vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells. /There is/ limited information about the anti-inflammatory mechanism of fenofibrate; however, "trans-repression" which suppresses production of inflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecules probably contributes to this mechanism. Furthermore, there are reports that fenofibrate affects endothelial cells in a PPARalpha-independent manner. In order to identify PPARalpha-dependently and PPARalpha-independently regulated transcripts, ... microarray data from human endothelial cells treated with fenofibrate, and with and without siRNA-mediated knock-down of PPARalpha /were obtained/. ... Dynamic Bayesian transcriptome networks /were used/ to reveal PPARalpha-dependent and -independent pathways. Transcriptome network analysis identified growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) as a hub gene having PPARalpha-independently regulated transcripts as its direct downstream children. This result suggests that GDF15 may be PPARalpha-independent master-regulator of fenofibrate action in human endothelial cells.

The effects of fenofibric acid seen in clinical practice have been explained in vivo in transgenic mice and in vitro in human hepatocyte cultures by the activation of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor a (PPARa). Through this mechanism, fenofibrate increases lipolysis and elimination of triglyceride-rich particles from plasma by activating lipoprotein lipase and reducing production of apoprotein C-III (an inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase activity). The resulting fall in triglycerides produces an alteration in the size and composition of LDL from small, dense particles (which are thought to be atherogenic due to their susceptibility to oxidation), to large buoyant particles. These larger particles have a greater affinity for cholesterol receptors and are catabolized rapidly. Activation of PPARa also induces an increase in the synthesis of apoproteins A-I, A-II and HDL-cholesterol.

... /This study/ investigated whether fenofibrate affects serum levels of retinol-binding protein-4 (RBP4), an adipocytokine that has recently been shown to link obesity and insulin resistance. Fenofibrate treatment significantly decreased serum RBP4 levels of dyslipidemic patients, which correlated with reduced body weight and increased insulin sensitivity. ... the effect of fenofibrate on RBP4 expression in obese rats /were also examined/. Fenofibrate greatly decreased RBP4 mRNA levels in adipose tissue but not in the liver, which correlated with decreased serum RBP4 levels and increased insulin sensitivity in obese rats. Consistent with a direct effect on RBP4 expression, fenofibrate treatment significantly reduced the mRNA expression levels of RPB4 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. ...
