We describe the dramatic differences in the synthesis and physiological and pharmacokinetical profiling of two sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT) drug candidates AVE2268 and AVE8887 with very similar chemical structures. It is a classic example of how a radioactive study was able to spare resources in preclinical development prior to entering a costly clinical program. It also demonstrated that radioactive compounds can be used to study differences between two very similar compounds in vivo.
我们描述了两种

葡萄糖共转运蛋白(SGLT)候选药物AVE2268和AVE8887在合成、生理和药代动力学方面的巨大差异,这两种药物的
化学结构非常相似。这是一个典型的例子,说明在进入成本高昂的临床试验项目之前,放射性研究能够节省临床前研发资源。它还表明,放射性化合物可用于研究两种非常相似的化合物在体内的差异。
