    Abstract:
    The in vivo pharmacological profile of SK&F 106760 [N alpha-acetyl-cyclo(S,S)-cysteinyl-N alpha-methylarginyl-glycyl-aspartyl-penicillamine-amide], a novel, potent glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa) antagonist has been investigated. In conscious dogs, SK&F 106760 (0.3-3 mg/kg i.v.) produced a dose-related inhibition of ex vivo whole blood platelet aggregation induced by collagen (5 micrograms/ml) with complete inhibition being produced for 5, 90 and 165 min after administration of 0.3, 1 and 3 mg/kg i.v., respectively. Plasma levels of SK&F 106760 were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography after i.v. bolus administration of 1 mg/kg. An initial alpha-disposition phase with a T1/2 of 11 +/- 6 min was followed by a longer terminal beta-elimination phase with a T1/2 of 66 +/- 12 min, which accounted for 79 +/- 9% of the total area under the plasma concentration-time curve. The apparent steady-state volume of distribution was 259 +/- 26 ml/kg and the plasma clearance was 3.4 +/- 0.8 ml/min/kg. The plasma concentration of SK&F 106760 at which collagen-induced ex vivo whole blood aggregation was inhibited by 50% was estimated to be 593 +/- 52 nM. After intraduodenal and intrajejunal administration of 3 mg/kg, SK&F 106760 had a bioavailability of 3 to 6% and produced a peak inhibition of ex vivo platelet aggregation of 40 to 50%. In anesthetized dogs, SK&F 106760 (0.3-3.0 mg/kg i.v.) produced a complete inhibition of platelet-dependent coronary artery thrombosis, with a dose-related duration of action.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
