CAS#: 354813-19-7

Description: Balicatib, also known as AAE581, is an inhibitor of the osteoclastic enzyme cathepsin K. Balicatib partially prevented ovariectomy-induced changes in bone mass, inhibited bone turnover at most sites, and had an unexpected stimulatory effect on periosteal bone formation.

Product Data:
Biological target: Balicatib (AAE-581) is an inhibitor of cathepsin K.
In vitro activity: TBD
In vivo activity: The efficacy of balicatib (AAE581), a novel inhibitor of human cathepsin K, on bone mass and dynamic histomorphometric endpoints was tested in ovariectomized monkeys. Eighty adult female Macaca fascicularis underwent bilateral ovariectomies and were dosed twice daily by oral gavage with balicatib at 0, 3, 10, and 50 mg/kg for 18 months (groups O, L, M, H, respectively). In both spine and femur, group O animals lost BMD and all other groups gained BMD between 0 and 18 months. In balicatib-treated animals, BMD change in the spine was intermediate between group S and O, with groups L and M significantly different from group O. In femur, all three doses of balicatib significantly increased BMD gain relative to group O and group mean values were also higher than group S. Most histomorphometric indices of bone turnover in vertebra and femoral neck were significantly lower than group O with balicatib treatment, except that periosteal bone formation rates (Ps.BFR) were significantly higher. Ps.BFR in mid-femur was also significantly increased by treatment. Overall, balicatib partially prevented ovariectomy-induced changes in bone mass, inhibited bone turnover at most sites, and had an unexpected stimulatory effect on periosteal bone formation.
