Aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) inhibitors (ASIs) represent an attractive therapeutic approach for mitigating the untoward effects of aldosterone. We characterized the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships of a prototypical ASI, (+)-(5R)-4-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a] pyridin-5-yl] benzonitrile hydrochloride (CGS020286A, FAD286, FAD) and compared these profiles to those of the 11 beta-hydroxylase inhibitor metyrapone (MET) in two rodent models of secondary hyperaldosteronism and corticosteronism. In chronically cannulated Sprague-Dawley rats, angiotensin II (ANG II) (300 ng/kg bolus + 100 ng/kg/min infusion) or adrenocorticotropin (100 ng/kg + 30 ng/kg/min) acutely elevated plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) from similar to 0.26 nM to a sustained level of similar to 2.5 nM for 9 h. Adrenocorticotropin but not ANG II elicited a sustained increase in plasma corticosterone concentration (PCC) from similar to 300 to similar to 1340 nM. After 1 h of Ang II or adrenocorticotropin infusion, FAD (0.01-100 mg/kg p.o.) or MET (0.1-300 mg/kg p.o.) dose-and drug plasma concentration-dependently reduced the elevated PACs over the ensuing 8 h. FAD was similar to 12 times more dose-potent than MET in reducing PAC but of similar or slightly greater potency on a plasma drug concentration basis. Both agents also decreased PCC in the adrenocorticotropin model at relatively higher doses and with similar dose potencies, whereas FAD was 6-fold weaker based on drug exposures. FAD was similar to 50-fold selective for reducing PAC versus PCC, whereas MET was only similar to 3-fold selective. We conclude that FAD is a potent, orally active, and relatively selective ASI in two rat models of hyperaldosteronism. MET is an order of magnitude less selective than FAD but is, nevertheless, more potent as an ASI than as an 11 beta-hydroxylase inhibitor.
