Use of Fimasartan

Fimasartan(BR-A-657) is a non-peptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist used for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.IC50 value:Target: AT1 receptor antagonistin vitro: Fimasartan suppressed the expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) by down-regulating its transcription, and subsequently inhibited the productions of nitric oxide (NO). In addition, fimasartan attenuated LPS-induced transcriptional and DNA-binding activities of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1) [1]. BR-A-657 displaced [125I][Sar1-Ile8]angiotensin II (Ang II) from its specific binding sites to AT1 subtype receptors in membrane fractions of HEK-293 cells with an IC50 of 0.16 nM [2]. in vivo: After oral administration of 240 mg fimasartan, the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC(0→∞)) was 2899.0 ng/ml/h in the older, which was significantly greater than in young subjects (1767.4 ng/ml/h; p = 0.03) [3]. Compared with atorvastatin alone, coadministration of fimasartan and atorvastatin increased the atorvastatin acid mean (95% confidence interval) maximum concentration (Cmax,ss) by 1.89-fold (1.49-2.39) and the area under the concentration curve (AUCτ,ss) by 1.19-fold (0.96-1.48). Fimasartan also increased the mean 2-hydroxy atorvastatin acid Cmax,ss and AUCτ,ss by 2.45-fold (1.80-3.35) and 1.42-fold (1.09-1.85), respectively [4].
