PF-06282999 is a novel, potent and selective myeloperoxidase (MPO) inhibitor with the potential for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Robust inhibition of plasma MPO activity was demonstrated with PF-06282999 upon oral administration to lipopolysaccharide-treated cynomolgus monkeys. On the basis of its pharmacological and pharmacokinetic profile, PF-06282999 has been advanced to first-in-human pharmacokinetic and safety studies. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme peroxidase that catalyzes the production of hypochlorous acid. Clinical evidence suggests a causal role for MPO in various autoimmune and inflammatory disorders including vasculitis and cardiovascular and Parkinson's diseases, implying that MPO inhibitors may represent a therapeutic treatment option.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | PF-06282999 (Compound 8) is a strong and specific myeloperoxidase inhibitor. The IC50 value of 1.9 μM found in human whole blood testing is in good agreement with the expected EC50 value of 3.8 μM for the total concentration of PF-06282999 in plasma [2]. |
| ln Vivo | In humans and preclinical animals, PF-06282999 is moderately bound to plasma proteins. Mice, rats, dogs, monkeys, and humans had blood/plasma ratios of PF-06282999 of 1.1, 1.1, 0.91, 1.2, and 0.94, respectively, suggesting that PF-06282999 is dispersed equally in plasma and red blood cells [1]. More research was done on the in vivo pharmacokinetics of PF-06282999 in mice, rats, dogs, and monkeys. The results showed that it was medium with low CLp in the monkeys (10.3 mL/min/kg), and moderate with the rats (41.8 mL/min/kg). The four species' terminal plasma elimination half-lives (t1/2) varied from 0.75 to 3.3 hours. The urine of rats, dogs, and monkeys excretes about 26-32% of an intravenous dose of PF-06282999 unaltered. It has also been demonstrated to be well dispersed in these animals, with a steady-state volume of distribution (Vdss) in the range of 0.5 - mouse, rat, and 2.1 L/kg in dogs and monkeys. In mice, rats, dogs, and monkeys, oral administration of PF-06282999 results in rapid (Tmax=0.78-1.70 h) and well-absorbed drug with oral bioavailability values of 100%, 86%, 75%, and 76%, respectively [2]. |

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.
