Mechanism of Action

Features	Demonstrates oral bioavailability, and an appropriate safety toxicology profile.
Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	CFTR (nonsense mutant) (HEK293 cells)
In vitro	Ataluren (PTC124) is a more potent nonsense-suppressing agent and exhibits 4- to 15-fold stimulation of read-through relative to controls. This compound (0.01-3 μM) promotes dose-dependent read-through of all three nonsense codons in HEK293 cells harboring LUC-190 nonsense alleles with the highest read-through at UGA, followed by UAG and then UAA, but it does not suppress multiple proximal nonsense codons. It is most active when a pyrimidine (in particular cytosine, C) follows the nonsense codon. Consistent with the stable cell line reporter assay, PTC124 (17 μM) promotes significant production of dystrophin in primary muscle cells from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients or MDXMDX mice expressing dystrophin nonsense alleles. It selectively promotes ribosomal read-through of premature termination but not normal termination codons, even at concentrations substantially greater than the values achieving maximal activity.
In vivo	Due to functional recovery of dystrophin production, oral, intraperitoneal or combined dosing of Ataluren (PTC124) for 2-8 weeks partially rescues functional strength deficit in dystrophic muscles of MDX mice, and results in partial protection against contraction-induced injury in the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles, as well as significant reductions in serum creatine kinase values. In Cftr-/- mice expressing a human CFTR-G542X transgene, subcutaneous or oral administration of this compound (~60 mg/kg) suppresses the G542X nonsense mutation in a dose-dependent manner, leading to a significant restoration of human (h)CFTR protein expression and function without any effect on nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) or other aspects of mRNA stability. Treatment with it (60 mg/kg) restores 29% of the normal intestinal transepithelial cAMP-stimulated shortcircuit currents observed in Cftr+/+ mice, displaying a significant advantage.
