Bioactivity

Rolapitant (SCH619734) is a potent, selective, long-acting and orally active neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist with a Ki of 0.66 nM. Rolapitant does not interact with CYP3A4. Rolapitant shows potent anti-emetic activity in a ferret emesis model[1][2].

Invitro

Rolapitant has high selectivity over the human NK2 and NK3 subtypes of more than 1000-fold, as well as preferential affinity for human, guinea pig, gerbil and monkey NK1 receptors over rat, mouse and rabbit[1].Rolapitant (1-1000 nM) inhibits the GR-73632 (an NK1 receptor agonist)-induced calcium efflux with a concentration-dependent and competitive manner in CHO cells expressing the human NK1 receptor[1].

In Vivo

Rolapitant (0.03-1 mg/kg for PO, 0.3-1 mg/kg for IV; single dosage) attenuates the GR-73632-induced foot-tapping response in Mongolian Gerbils[1].Rolapitant (0.03-1 mg/kg; PO; single dosage; observed for 72 h) blocks acute emesis induced by both apomorphine and cisplatin in ferrets[1].
