Purity: ≥98%
Valbenazine (formerly NBI98854; MT5199; NBI-98854; MT-5199; trade name: Ingrezza) is a potent and selective inhibitor of VMAT2 (vesicular monoamine transporter 2) with potential usefulness in the treatment of TD/tardive dyskinesia (uncontrollable movement of the face, tongue, or other body parts). As of 2017, it has been approved by FDA as the first medication to treat adults with TD/tardive dyskinesia. Valbenazine is a prodrug of the (+)-α isomer of tetrabenazine for tardive syndrome therapy. It is effective in regulating the levels of dopamine release during nerve communication, while at the same time having minimal impact on the other monoamines. Valbenazine is used to treat tardive dyskinesia in adults. Tardive dyskinesia is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary movements. The clinical trials that led to FDA approval of valbenzazine were 6 weeks in duration. An industry-sponsored study has studied the use of valbenzazine for up to 48 weeks, in which it was found to be safe and effective for maintaining short-term (6 week) improvements in tardive dyskinesia.
ln Vitro |
In rat striatum and human platelets, valbenazine demonstrates VMAT2 binding affinities with Kis values of 110 and 150 nM, respectively [1].

ln Vivo |
Oral valbenazine (10 mg/kg) causes ptosis in rats, which is mainly an adrenergic response, and raises plasma prolactin, which is primarily a dopaminergic response [1].

ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Valbenazine and its active metabolite ([+]-α-HTBZ) demonstrate approximate proportional increases for the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) after single oral doses from 40 mg to 300 mg (i.e., 50% to 375% of the recommended treatment dose). Following oral administration, the time to reach maximum valbenazine plasma concentration (Tmax) ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 hours. Valbenazine reaches steady-state plasma concentrations within 1 week. The absolute oral bioavailability of valbenazine is approximately 49%. [+]-α-HTBZ gradually forms and reaches Cmax 4 to 8 hours after administration of valbenazine. Ingestion of a high-fat meal decreases valbenazine Cmax by approximately 47% and AUC by approximately 13%. [+]-α-HTBZ Cmax and AUC are unaffected. Following the administration of a single 50-mg oral dose of radiolabeled C-valbenazine (i.e., ~63% of the recommended treatment dose), approximately 60% and 30% of the administered radioactivity was recovered in the urine and feces, respectively. Less than 2% was excreted as unchanged valbenazine or [+]-α-HTBZ in either urine or feces. The mean steady-state volume of distribution of valbenazine is 92 L. Valbenazine has a mean total plasma systemic clearance value of 7.2 L/hr. Metabolism / Metabolites Valbenazine is extensively metabolized after oral administration by hydrolysis of the valine ester to form the active metabolite ([+]-α-HTBZ) and by oxidative metabolism, primarily by CYP3A4/5, to form mono-oxidized valbenazine and other minor metabolites. [+]-α-HTBZ appears to be further metabolized in part by CYP2D6. Biological Half-Life Both Valbenazine and [+]-α-HTBZ have half-lives of 15 to 22 hours. |

Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation No information is available on the use of valbenazine during breastfeeding in humans. Based on animal studies, the manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be avoided during valbenazine therapy and for 5 days after the final dose. ◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. ◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. Protein Binding The plasma protein binding of valbenazine and [+]-α-HTBZ is greater than 99% and approximately 64%, respectively. |

Additional Infomation |
Valbenazine is a modified metabolite of [tetrabenazine], and it is currently being approved for the treatment of various movement disorders, particularly tardive dyskinesia and chorea associated with Huntington's disease. Tardive dyskinesia has long been regarded as a consequence of anti-dopamine receptor therapy, and until 2008 with the advent of [tetrabenazine], most treatments were ineffective. However, challenges in using [tetrabenazine] as a treatment of tardive dyskinesia included frequent dosing and safety and tolerability concerns. On April 2017, valbenazine was approved by the FDA under the brand name INGREZZA as the first and only approved treatment for adults with Tardive Dyskinesia (TD). On August 2023, valbenazine was again approved by the FDA for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington's disease respectively. This approval was supported by positive results in multiple trials, including the KINECT-HD Phase 3 study and the ongoing KINECT-HD2 open-label extension trial. The reduction in chorea severity was observed as early as 2 weeks after starting treatment with an initial dose of 40 mg.
Valbenazine is a Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 Inhibitor. The mechanism of action of valbenazine is as a Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 Inhibitor. See also: Valbenazine tosylate (active moiety of). Drug Indication Valbenazine is indicated for the treatment of adults with tardive dyskinesia and chorea associated with Huntington’s disease. FDA Label Mechanism of Action Although the exact mechanism of action of valbenzine is still unknown, it is thought be mediated through the reversible inhibition of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), a transporter that regulates monoamine uptake from the cytoplasm to the synaptic vesicle for storage and release. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
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. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. 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 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
