Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Avatrombopag, also known as AKR-501, YM477, AS 1670542 or E5501, is a novel orally-active thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonist. AKR-501 specifically targeted the TPO receptor and stimulated megakaryocytopoiesis throughout the development and maturation of megakaryocytes just as rhTPO did. AKR-501 may be useful in the treatment of patients with thrombocytopenia. Avatrombopag was first approved in 2018.

More Info
AKR-501, a novel, small-molecule thrombopoietin mimetic being investigated for the treatment of thrombocytopenia. AkaRx is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eisai Inc. and Eisai has the exclusive worldwide rights to develop, market and manufacture AKR-501. AKR-501 is an investigational thrombopoietin receptor agonist that, based on preclinical studies, increases platelet production by stimulating megakaryocytic proliferation and differentiation. Eisai is currently conducting Phase II clinical trials of AKR-501 in the United States as a potential treatment for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and thrombocytopenia associated with liver diseases (TLD), and has confirmed proof of concept in the clinical studies for ITP. In addition, Eisai will explore the compound's potential as a treatment for chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT).    
Product Data
Biological target:
Avatrombopag is a thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonist with EC50=3.3 nM.
In vitro activity:
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-mobilized human peripheral blood CD34+ cells were cultured with AKR-501, TPO, or a combination of the two in serum-free liquid culture system. Both AKR-501 and TPO alone increased the number of megakaryocytes, and the maximum activities of AKR-501 and TPO were similar. Interestingly, in the presence of TPO concentrations producing maximal stimulation, the addition of AKR-501 increased the number of megakaryocytes to about 200% of that generated with TPO only. In the time course experiment, the combination of AKR-501 and TPO augmented the numbers of hematopoietic progenitor cells and colony-forming unit in culture in the early stages. Thus, the combination of AKR-501 and TPO enhanced not only the differentiation into megakaryocytes, but also the expansion of human hematopoietic progenitor cells. Further, AKR-501 did not inhibit TPO binding to the TPO receptor. This result indicated the possibility that AKR-501 and TPO may act simultaneously on the TPO receptor, and this could be responsible for their additive effect of on megakaryocytopoiesis.

In vivo activity:
The in vivo platelet-increasing effect of AKR-501 was examined in human platelet producing non-obese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency (NOD/SCID) mice transplanted with human fetal liver CD34(+) cells. Daily oral administration of AKR-501 dose-dependently increased the number of human platelets in these mice, with significance achieved at doses of 1 mg/kg and above. The peak unbound plasma concentrations of AKR-501 after administration at 1 mg/kg in NOD/SCID mice were similar to those observed following administration of an active oral dose in human subjects. These results suggest that AKR-501 is an orally-active TPO receptor agonist that may be useful in the treatment of thrombocytopenia.
