Three novel metabolites of the angiotensin-II (A-II) receptor antagonist tasosartan have been identified in humans, and the syntheses and pharmacologic profiling of these metabolites are reported. Each metabolite bound the human A-II receptor with IC(50)s between 20 and 45 nM. The in vivo effects of these compounds in attenuating the pressor response to angiotensin-II challenge in anesthetized rats were also investigated. An unsaturated diol metabolite exhibited in vivo efficacy at intravenous doses of 1 and 3 mg/kg, while the other metabolites, both carboxylic acids, had no significant effect at the same doses.
