Description:

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

Cetilistat, also known as ATL-962, is a drug designed to treat obesity. It acts in the same way as the older drug orlistat (Xenical) by inhibiting pancreatic lipase, an enzyme that breaks down triglycerides in the intestine. Without this enzyme, triglycerides from the diet are prevented from being hydrolyzed into absorbable free fatty acids and are excreted undigested.

More Info
In human trials, cetilistat was shown to produce similar weight loss to orlistat, but also produced similar side effects such as oily, loose stools, fecal incontinence, frequent bowel movements, and flatulence. It is likely that the same precautions would apply in that absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and other fat-soluble nutrients may be inhibited, requiring vitamin supplements to be used to avoid deficiencies. Cetilistat has completed Phase 1 and 2 trials in the West and is currently in Phase 3 trials in Japan where it is partnered with Takeda. Norgina BV has now acquired the full global rights to cetilistat from Alizyme after the latter went into administration.
Product Data
Biological target:
Cetilistat (ATL-962), an inhibitor of pancreatic lipase, acts as an effective anti-obesity agent. Cetilistat inhibits rat and human pancreatic lipase activity with IC50s of 54.8 nM, and 5.95 nM, respectively.
In vitro activity:
Cetilistat was identified as a most potent anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug compound using the cut-off of 90 % effective concentrations (EC90) <10 μM after treating VeroE6 cells with 0.01 MOI of SARS-CoV-2 for 48 h. Using plaque reduction assay, the EC50 of the drug compounds were determined to be 1.13 μM (cetilistat) (Fig. 3 A–D). At 48 hpi, the 50 % cytotoxic concentrations (CC50) of cetilistat was >100 μM (Table 2 ). The selectivity index of these four drug compounds were >88.50 (cetilistat).

In vivo activity:
Cetilistat is a novel inhibitor of pancreatic lipase. The aim of this report is to evaluate the anti-obesity action of cetilistat in diet-induced obesity (DIO) rats. Cetilistat inhibited rat and human pancreatic lipase activity with an IC (50) of 54.8 nmol/l, and 5.95 nmol/l, respectively, meaning that it is 9.2 times more potent for human pancreatic lipase than for that of rat. Cetilistat was orally administered simultaneously with fat emulsion to Sprague-Dawley rats. Plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations were measured before and after oral fat loading. The elevation in plasma triglyceride concentration by oral fat loading was reduced by cetilistat in a dose-dependent manner at 3, 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg, indicating that cetilistat reduces intestinal fat absorption in rats. Cetilistat was administered to DIO F344 rats as food admixture in a high-fat diet at 4.9, 14.9, or 50.7 mg/kg/day for three weeks. Both triglyceride and nonesterified fatty acid content in the feces were dose-dependently and drastically increased, suggesting the intestinal breakdown of fat and excretion. Body weight (BW) gain and white adipose tissue (WAT) weight were reduced in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, leptin, TG, and total cholesterol (TC) in plasma were reduced and there were no reports of oily stools. These results suggest that cetilistat ameliorates obesity and hyperlipidemia in DIO rats, a plausible animal model of the most common type of human obesity.
