Developed by the German pharmaceutical company, Merckle GmbH, together with EuroAlliance partners Alfa Wassermann and Lacer, licofelone (ML3000) is a dual COX/LOX inhibitor and the first member of this new class of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs. It is currently under evaluation as a treatment for osteoarthritis (OA), the most common form of arthritis. Although phase III trials have been successfully completed in OA patients no dates for regulatory submission have yet been given.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Licofelone belongs to a novel class of dual-acting anti-inflammatory drugs called COX/LO inhibitors. This group of drugs simultaneously inhibits the enzymes cyclooxygenase (COX) and 5-lipoxygenase (LO).


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors

Compounds or agents that combine with cyclooxygenase (PROSTAGLANDIN-ENDOPEROXIDE SYNTHASES) and thereby prevent its substrate-enzyme combination with arachidonic acid and the formation of eicosanoids, prostaglandins, and thromboxanes. (See all compounds classified as Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors.)


Analgesics

Compounds capable of relieving pain without the loss of CONSCIOUSNESS. (See all compounds classified as Analgesics.)


Anti-Inflammatory Agents

Substances that reduce or suppress INFLAMMATION. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Inflammatory Agents.)


Lipoxygenase Inhibitors

Compounds that bind to and inhibit that enzymatic activity of LIPOXYGENASES. Included under this category are inhibitors that are specific for lipoxygenase subtypes and act to reduce the production of LEUKOTRIENES. (See all compounds classified as Lipoxygenase Inhibitors.)


5.3 Metabolism/Metabolites

Licofelone has known human metabolites that include (2S,3S,4S,5R)-6-[2-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)-6,6-dimethyl-1-phenyl-5,7-dihydropyrrolizin-3-yl]acetyl]oxy-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid, Licofelone M2, and Licofelone M4.

S73 | METXBIODB | Metabolite Reaction Database from BioTransformer | DOI:10.5281/zenodo.4056560


5.4 Mechanism of Action

Licofelone, through combined 5-LOX/COX-inhibition, reduces levels of inflammatory prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
