Fosaprepitant (also known as L-758298; MK0517) is a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. Fosaprepitant is injected intravenously and used as an antiemetic medication. Merck & Co. developed fosaprepitant, which was authorized as an Aprepitant prodrug. It helps to avoid both acute and delayed nausea and vomiting brought on by chemotherapy. Prepitant, the active moiety, is a substrate, inducer, and inhibitor of CYP3A4, while fosaprepitant is a weak inhibitor of CYP3A4.

ln Vitro |
Fosaprepitant (1 mg/mL in 0.9 % sodium chloride injection solution) was combined in binary or tertiary fashion with therapeutic-dose preparations of a 5-HT3 antagonist (ondansetron, granisetron, palonosetron, or tropisetron) and/or a corticosteroid (dexamethasone sodium phosphate or methylprednisolone sodium succinate). For diluent compatibility assessment, fosaprepitant was also prepared 1 mg/mL in 0.9 % sodium chloride injection solution, water for injection, or 5 % dextrose injection solution. After 24-h storage under ambient conditions, samples were assayed for degradation[3].

ln Vivo |
Fosaprepitant (30 mg/kg; i.p.; daily; for 7 days) reduces morphine tolerance and heightens the antinociceptive impact in rats[1].

Animal Protocol |
Sprague-Dawley rats
30 mg/kg Intraperitoneal injection, daily, for 7 days Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with morphine (10 mg/kg twice daily) and/or fosaprepitant (30 mg/kg once daily) for 7 days. Pain threshold was assessed by the hot plate test. Expression of SP and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the spinal cords of these rats was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.[2] Fosaprepitant (also known as MK-0517 and L-758,298) is a water-soluble phosphoryl prodrug for aprepitant, which, when administered intravenously, is converted to aprepitant within 30 min of intravenous administration via the action of ubiquitous phosphatases. Owing to the rapid conversion of fosaprepitant to the active form (aprepitant), fosaprepitant 115 mg provided the same aprepitant exposure in terms of AUC as aprepitant 12 mg orally, and fosaprepitant is expected to provide a correspondingly similar antiemetic effect as aprepitant. Clinical studies have suggested that fosaprepitant could be appropriate as an intravenous alternative to the aprepitant oral capsule. In a study in healthy subjects, fosaprepitant 115 mg was generally well tolerated at a final drug concentration of 1 mg/ml, and fosaprepitant 115 mg was AUC bioequivalent to aprepitant 125 mg. Fosaprepitant in the dose of 115 mg has been approved by the US FDA, the EU and the Australian authorities on day 1 of a 3-day oral aprepitant regimen, with oral aprepitant administered on days 2 and 3. Fosaprepitant may be a useful parenteral alternative to oral aprepitant. Further study is needed to clarify the utility of fosaprepitant in the prevention of CINV and to clarify optimal dosing regimens that may be appropriate substitutes for oral aprepitant[2]. |

Additional Infomation |
Fosaprepitant is a morpholine derivative that is the (1R)-1-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]ethyl ether of (3-{[(2R,3S)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-hydroxymorpholin-4-yl]methyl}-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phosphonic acid. It has a role as an antiemetic, a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist and a prodrug. It is a member of morpholines, a member of triazoles, a cyclic acetal, a phosphoramide and a member of (trifluoromethyl)benzenes. It is a conjugate acid of a fosaprepitant(2-).
ChEBI
Fosaprepitant is an intravenously administered antiemetic drug. It is a prodrug of Aprepitant. It aids in the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy treatment. DrugBank Fosaprepitant is a Substance P/Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonist. The mechanism of action of fosaprepitant is as a Neurokinin 1 Antagonist. FDA Pharm Classes Fosaprepitant is a water-soluble, N-phosphorylated prodrug of the substance P (SP; neurokinin 1 (NK1)) antagonist aprepitant, with antiemetic activity. Upon intravenous administration and rapid conversion to aprepitant, this agent selectively binds to and blocks the human substance P receptors in the central nervous system (CNS). This inhibits receptor binding of the endogenous substance P and prevents substance P-induced emesis. View More
Fosaprepitant is indicated in adult and pediatric patients ≥6 months of age, in combination with other antiemetic agents, for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy, including high-dose [cisplatin]. It is also indicated for the treatment of delayed nausea and vomiting with initial and repeat courses of moderately emetogenic cancer chemotherapy.
Route of Elimination: Aprepitant is eliminated primarily by metabolism; aprepitant is not renally excreted. Aprepitant is excreted in the milk of rats. It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Metabolism / Metabolites: Aprepitant is metabolized primarily by CYP3A4 with minor metabolism by CYP1A2 and CYP2C19. Seven metabolites of aprepitant, which are only weakly active, have been identified in human plasma. Biological Half-Life: 9-13 hours Aprepitant has been shown in animal models to inhibit emesis induced by cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents, such as cisplatin, via central actions. Animal and human Positron Emission Tomography (PET) studies with Aprepitant have shown that it crosses the blood brain barrier and occupies brain NK1 receptors. Animal and human studies show that Aprepitant augments the antiemetic activity of the 5-HT3-receptor antagonist ondansetron and the corticosteroid ethasone and inhibits both the acute and delayed phases of cisplatin induced emesis. In summary, the active form of fosaprepitant is as an NK1 antagonist which is because it blocks signals given off by NK1 receptors. This therefore decreases the likelihood of vomiting in patients experiencing. Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is a distressing and common adverse event associated with cancer treatment. Updated antiemetic guidelines were published in 2008 by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network and, in 2006, by the American Society of Clinical Oncology, which have included the use of the new and more effective antiemetic agents 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 (5-HT(3)) receptor antagonist and neurokinin (NK)-1 receptor antagonist. Aprepitant is a selective NK-1 receptor antagonist approved as part of combination therapy with a corticosteroid and a 5-HT(3) receptor antagonist for the prevention of acute and delayed CINV in patients receiving moderately and highly emetogenic chemotherapy. Fosaprepitant (also known as MK-0517 and L-758,298) is a water-soluble phosphoryl prodrug for aprepitant, which, when administered intravenously, is converted to aprepitant within 30 min of intravenous administration via the action of ubiquitous phosphatases.
