MedKoo CAT#: 317137

CAS#: 210421-74-2 (sodium salt)

Description: Sitaxentan, also known as TBC-11251 and IPI 1040, is a medication for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). It was marketed as Thelin. In 2010, Pfizer voluntarily removed sitaxentan from the market due to concerns about liver toxicity. Sitaxentan is a small molecule that blocks the action of endothelin (ET) on the endothelin-A (ETA) receptor selectively (by a factor of 6000 compared with the ETB).

Product Data:
Biological target: Sitaxentan is a potent nonpeptide ETA receptor antagonist (IC50 = 1.4 nM). It is selective for ETA over ETB receptors (IC50 = 9,800 nM).
In vitro activity: The study provides insights into sitaxentan's hepatotoxicity, rationalizing its withdrawal from the market in 2010. Sitaxentan formed a reactive ortho-quinone metabolite, detected in vitro using liver microsomes and hepatocytes from various species. Human liver microsomes showed time-dependent inhibition of P450 3A4. The quinone metabolite reacted with glutathione, forming a conjugate. Computational modeling suggested that the 2-position on the phenyl ring is the likely site of glutathione conjugation.

In vivo activity: Sitaxentan reduces neointimal lesion formation. Sitaxentan produced a selective, concentration-dependent parallel rightward shift of ET-1-mediated contraction in isolated femoral arteries from adult, male C57Bl6 mice. Sitaxentan reduced neointimal lesion size, whereas ETB and combined ETA / B receptor antagonism did not. Macrophage and α-smooth muscle actin content were unaltered by ET receptor antagonism but sitaxentan reduced the amount of collagen in lesions.
