4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

Nifurtimox is indicated in pediatric patients under 18 weighing at least 2.5 kg. Continued approval of this drug for this indication is dependent upon confirmatory clinical trial results.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Nifurtimox exerts trypanosomal activity against Trypanosoma cruzi, treating Chagas disease. One study reports that nifurtimox and other benzofuran derivatives reduce parasite dehydrogenase activity. Results of a recent phase III clinical trial have shown that a significant number of pediatric patients with acute or chronic Chagas disease treated with nifurtimox were immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody negative and demonstrated at least a 20% decrease in optical density on two IgG antibody tests for T. cruzi antigens.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Trypanocidal Agents

Agents destructive to the protozoal organisms belonging to the suborder TRYPANOSOMATINA. (See all compounds classified as Trypanocidal Agents.)


5.3 ATC Code

P - Antiparasitic products, insecticides and repellents

P01 - Antiprotozoals

P01C - Agents against leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis

P01CC - Nitrofuran derivatives

P01CC01 - Nifurtimox


5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

The average AUC of nifurtimox is estimated between 1676-2670 gh/L. One pharmacokinetic study of healthy volunteers revealed an AUC of 5430 ngml-1h. Cmax ranges between 425-568 g/L (2650%) after a single dose of 20 mg with food in adults. Tmax is 4 hours, ranging from 2 to 8 hours post-dose in the fed state. In a pharmacokinetic study of healthy volunteers, serum concentration was low, likely due to the first-pass effect.


Route of Elimination

In the fed state, 44% of the dose was mainly recovered in the urine as metabolites. Fecal and biliary excretion of nifurtimox have not been studied.


Volume of Distribution

Nifurtimox crosses the blood-brain barrier and the placenta.


Clearance

One pharmacokinetic study of nifurtimox revealed a clearance of 193.4 lh-1. In patients without renal failure; clearance was 99.7 lh-1.


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Nifurtimox is largely metabolized via nitroreductase enzymes. Two major inactive metabolites have been identified: M-4 and M-6. The M-4 metabolite is a cysteine conjugate of nifurtimox, while M-6 is likely formed by hydrolytic cleavage of the hydrazone moiety of nifurtimox. Other minor metabolites have also been identified in human plasma.


5.6 Biological Half-Life

The elimination half-life of nifurtimox ranges from 2.43.6 hours. A pharmacokinetic study of healthy volunteers and patients with renal failure revealed respective mean half-lives of 2.95 h and 3.95 h.


5.7 Mechanism of Action

The mechanism of action of nifurtimox has not been fully elucidated, however, is believed to occur by the activation of nitroreductase enzymes that produce reactive metabolites with a series of deleterious effects on Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite causing Chagas disease. The antiprotozoal actions of nifurtimox occur both intracellularly and extracellularly. Inhibition of parasite dehydrogenase activity is another purported mode of action of nifurtimox that warrants further research.
