Bioactivity Voxelotor (GBT 440) is a potent inhibitor of haemoglobin S (HbS) polymerization. Voxelotor has the potential for sickle cell disease (SCD) treatment[1].
Target HbS polymerization
Invitro Voxelotor (GBT440) binds to the N-terminal a chain of haemoglobin (Hb), increases haemoglobin S (HbS) affinity for oxygen, delays in vitro HbS polymerization and prevents sickling of red blood cells (RBCs)[1].
In Vivo Voxelotor (GBT440; 100-150 mg/kg; administered twice a day by oral gavage for 9-12 days) reduces ex vivo sickling and prolongs red blood cells (RBCs) half-life in a murine model of sickle cell disease (SCD)[1].Voxelotor shows T1/2s of 11.7, 19.1±1.5, 66.0±11, 28.8±4.0 hours for mouse (70 mg/kg; i.v.), rat (1.6 mg/kg; i.v.), dog (1 mg/kg; i.v.), and momkey (1 mg/kg; i.v.), respectively[1].Voxelotor shows Cmaxs of 81.9, 71.2±6.0, 5.56±1.6, and 25.2±5.5 μg/mL for mouse (30 mg/kg; p.o.), rat (7.2 mg/kg; p.o.), dog (2.5 mg/kg; p.o.), and momkey (4.25 mg/kg; p.o.), respectively[1].
