4.1 Drug Indication

For the treatment of tardive dyskinesia in adults.


FDA Label


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Valbenazine decreases the availability of monoamine neurotransmitters by preventing their storage in synaptic vesicles. This is believed to be the reason behind its therapeutic effect in tardive dyskinesia although the exact mechanism is unknown.

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Oral bioavailability of 49%. Tmax of 0.5-1h.


Route of Elimination

Roughly 60% is excreted in urine and 30% in feces. Less than 2% if the parent compound or active metabolite was excreted unchanged.


Volume of Distribution

92 Liters.


Clearance

7.2 Liters/hour.


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Valbenzine is extensively metabolized to one active metabolite [+]--dihydrotetrabenazine ([+]--HTBZ) through hydrolysis of the valine ester reaching Cmax within 4-8 hours. It is also metabolized via oxidation by CYP3A4/5 to a mono-oxidzed metabolite NBI-136110 which also appears to pharmacologically active. [+]--HTBZ is metabolized by CYP2D6.


5.6 Biological Half-Life

Both valbenazine and its active metabolite [+]--HTBZ have a half life of 15-22 hours.


5.7 Mechanism of Action

Valbenazine and its active meabolites bind to and inhibit vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2)with high selectivity (valbenazine Ki = 150nM, [+]--HTBZ Ki = 1.98nM, NBI136110 Ki = 160nM) with no significant binding to VMAT1 (Ki <10microM for each). This prevents the reuptake and storage of monoamine neurotransmitters noradrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin in synaptic vesicles making them vulnerable to metabolism by cytosolic enzymes. The presynaptic release of monoamine neurotransmitters is decreased due to the lack of vesicles with packaged neurotransmitter ready for release into the synapse. Neither valbenazine nor its active metabolite exhibit significant off target binding at dopamine, serotonin, or adrenaline receptors or uptake transporters at 10microM concentrations.
