Characterization of dexloxiglumidein vitro biopharmaceutical properties and active transport

Dexloxiglumide aqueous solubility was moderate and pH dependent. Dexloxiglumide exhibited moderate Caco-2 permeability that was polarized, concentration dependent, and pH dependent. The apical-to-basolateral (AP–BL) permeability at pH 5 [14.5 (±1.8) × 10−6 cm/s] was 2-fold higher than at pH 7.5 [7.24 (±0.27) × 10−6 cm/s]. Neutral and ionized dexloxiglumide species displayed permeabilities of 30.8 (±8.4) × 10−6 cm/s and 9.03 (±1.31) × 10−6 cm/s, respectively. The transport of dexloxiglumide across MDR1-MDCK (P-gp overexpressing Madine Darby canine kidney cells) monolayers was polarized, with a BL–AP/AP–BL permeability ratio of 9.35 (±0.73), which was reduced to 1.03 (±0.03) by P-gp inhibition. Rhodamine 123 efflux was reduced by dexloxiglumide from 4.06 (±0.34) to 2.84 (±0.15) across Caco-2 monolayers, and from 17.3 (±0.9) to 8.26 (±1.38) across MDR1-MDCK monolayers, further indicating dexloxiglumide interaction with P-gp. Additionally, P-gp ATPase activity increased with dexloxiglumide concentration. Dexloxiglumide was effluxed from MRP1-NIH3T3 cells (NIH-3T3 cells expressing the multidrug resistance-associated protein 1). Dexloxiglumide increased MRP1-substrate fluorescein uptake 4-fold, and fluorescein increased dexloxiglumide uptake 1.8-fold. Overall, in vitro transport studies indicate dexloxiglumide to be moderately soluble and moderately permeable, which is in agreement with the incomplete oral absorption of dexloxiglumide. In vitro, dexloxiglumide was moderately modulated by P-gp and MRP1, which provides a rationale for the design of drug interaction studies. © 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc. and the American Pharmacists Association J Pharm Sci 92:1968–1980, 2003
