Topiroxostat reduces the synthesis of uric acid by competitively inhibiting xanthine oxidase in a selective and time-dependent manner. It serves to reduce the concentration of insoluble urates and uric acid in tissues, plasma and urine. Topiroxostat is not reported to cause QT prolongation.
Enzyme Inhibitors
Compounds or agents that combine with an enzyme in such a manner as to prevent the normal substrate-enzyme combination and the catalytic reaction. (See all compounds classified as Enzyme Inhibitors.)
Absorption
The time to reach peak plasma concentration of 229.9 ng/mL was 0.67 hour following a single oral dose of 20mg topiroxostat. The oral bioavailability in male rats was 69.6% after oral administration of a single dose of 1mg/kg.
Route of Elimination
Urinary excretion and fecal excretion of radiolabeled topiroxostat are 30.4% and 40.9% of total dose of 1mg/kg administered to rats, respectively. Within 24 h after a single oral administration of 120mg of topiroxostat, the main metabolites of topiroxostat, N-oxide, N1-gluculonide, and N2-gluculonide, are excreted into urine about 4.8, 43.3, and 16.1 % of the dose, respectively. Unchanged topiroxostat and the hydroxide metabolite was 0.1% or less.
Volume of Distribution
The distribution of 14C-topiroxostat (20, 200, and 2000 ng/mL) in human blood cells was 6.7% to 12.8%.
Clearance
The apparent total body clearance rate is 89.5 L/h and the renal clearance rate is 17.4 mL/h following a single oral dose of 20mg topiroxostat.
Topiroxostat is mainly inactivated by hepatic metabolism. 2-hydroxy topiroxostat is formed from primary hydroxylation of the drug by xanthine oxidase and still retains an inhibitory activity on the enzyme. Topiroxostat N-oxide is another major metabolite that can be detected in plasma and urine. It is determined that the N-oxide and hydroxide metabolites are pyridine N-oxide and pyridine 2 (or 6)-hydroxide, respectively. Topiroxostat is mainly inactivated by hepatic metabolism where it undergoes glucuronidation. The metabolism of topiroxostat to N1-and N2-glucuronide conjugates is mainly mediated by UGT1A1, 1A7, and 1A9, with UGT1A9 being the most predominant.
FYX-051 has known human metabolites that include (2S,3S,4S,5R)-6-[3-(2-cyanopyridin-4-yl)-5-pyridin-4-yl-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl]-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxane-2-carboxylic acid and 4-[2-[(3R,4S,5S,6S)-6-carboxy-3,4,5-trihydroxyoxan-2-yl]-5-pyridin-4-yl-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]pyridine-2-carbonitrilium.

The mean half life of topiroxostat after a single oral dose of 20mg topiroxostat is 5 hours under fasting condition. The complex of molybdenum (IV)- topiroxostat has an approximate half life of 20.4 hours.
Uric acid synthesis depends on the action of xanthine oxidase activity in the conversion of hypoxanthine to xanthine, followed by the conversion of xanthine to uric acid. Xanthine oxidase consists of a molybdenum ion as cofactor in the active center that has different redox states upon substrate binding. When a substrate such as hypoxanthine or xanthine binds, xanthine oxidase hydroxylates it and molybdenum ion is reduced from hexavalent, Mo(VI), to tetravalent form, Mo(IV). Molybdenum ion is reoxidized into hexavalent state once the hydroxylated substrate, xanthine or uric acid, dissociates from the active site. Topiroxostat is shown to interact with multiple amino acid residues of the solvent channel and additionally forms a reaction intermediate by covalent binding with molybdenum (IV) ion via an oxygen atom. It also forms hydrogen bonds with molybdenum (VI) ion, suggesting that it has multiple inhibition modes to xanthine oxidase. Enhanced binding interactions to xanthine oxidase achieves delayed dissociation of topiroxostat from the enzyme. 2-hydroxy-topiroxostat, the metabolite formed by primary hydroxylation of topiroxostat by xanthine oxidase, also causes time and concentration-dependent inhibition of the enzyme. Topiroxostat is shown to inhibit ATP-binding cassette transporter G2 (ABCG2) in vitro, which is a membrane protein responsible for recovering uric acid in the kidneys and secreting uric acid from the intestines.
