Biochem/physiol Actions

LBQ657 is the active metabolite of sacubitril. It is an inhibitor of the enkephalinase neprilysin (neutral endopeptidase, NEP) formed by the action of esterases on its prodrug sacubitril (AHU377), which is half of the heart failure combination drug Entresto, along with the angiotensin-receptor blocker Valsartan. LBQ657 prevents neprilysin′s degradation of atrial and brain natriuretic peptide, two blood pressure lowering peptides.

Neprilysin has a major role in both the generation and degradation of bioactive peptides. LCZ696 (valsartan/sacubitril, Entresto), the first of the new ARNI (dual-acting angiotensin-receptor-neprilysin inhibitor) drug class, contains equimolar amounts of valsartan, an angiotensin-receptor blocker, and sacubitril, a prodrug

1. The potential for drug-drug interactions of LCZ696 (a novel, crystalline complex comprising sacubitril and valsartan) was investigated in vitro. 2. Sacubitril was shown to be a highly permeable P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate and was hydrolyzed to the active anionic metabolite LBQ657 by

Angiotensin receptor blockade and neprilysin (NEP) inhibition together offer potential benefits for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. LCZ696 is a novel single molecule comprising molecular moieties of valsartan and NEP inhibitor prodrug AHU377 (1:1 ratio). Oral administration of
