Ibutilide Ibutilide A Class III Antiarrhythmic Drugs ZHANG Dai-fu Shanghai East Hospital Tongji University Tongji University September 10, 2010

  Classified as Class III according to Vaughan Williams Classification   Manufactured by Pharmacia & Upjohn, USA and approved by FDA in 1995   Approved by SFDA in 2007 Ibutlide

Chemistry Systematic name: Systematic name: N-(4-{4-[ethyl(heptyl)amino]-1- hydroxybutyl}phenyl)methanesulfonamide Formula: C 20 H 36 N 2 O 3 S Mol. Mass: 384.578 g/mol

Mechanism of Action   Ibutilide prolongs action potential duration, so- called class III antiarryhthmic drug   The class III drugs block I Kr, the rapid component of delayed rectifier potassium current, thereby prolonging repolarization, the action potential duration, and the refractory period  does not  But ibutilide does not have a sodium-blocking, antiadrenergic, and calcium blocking activity

Mechanism of Action   Ibutilide activates slow sodium channel and promotes the influx of sodium, Its mechanism of action is unique among available class III drugs   Ibutilide may enhance the conductance of Ca ++ through the L- type calcium channel

Mechanism of Action +-+- V Max plateau Slow Na  (Ibutilide) Ca Na N T QT APD Action Potential Duration

Electrophysiologic Effects   No clinically significant effect on QRS   Produces a dose related prolongation of the QT interval   Prolongation of QT interval is similar in men and women   Prolongs action potential duration and effective refractory periods in both atria and ventricles

Electrophysiologic Effects   Lengthens effective refractory period in both atrium and ventricle   Enhances slow Na + inward plateau current and blocks delayed-rectifier outward K + current   Maintains Class III effects even at rapid heart rates

Hemodynamic Effects No clinically significant effects on cardiac output (CO), mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAPm) or capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) in patients with ejection fractions > 35 or < 35%

Pharmacokinetics   Ibutilide is intravenously administered  It has a high first-pass metabolism, which results in a poor bioavailability when taken orally bioavailability  Individual pharmacokinetic properties are highly  Individual pharmacokinetic properties are highly viable Absorption

Pharmacokinetics   Ibutilide has a relatively large volume of distribution among individual subjects, which is about 11L/kg   Approximately 40% of the drug is bound with plasma albumin Distribution

Pharmacokinetics   Ibutilide has a high systemic plasma clearance that closes to the hepatic blood flow (29mL/min/kg).   Its metabolic pathway is via liver’s cytochrome P450 system   Only one in eight metabolites has active property of the Class III antiarrhythmic agents, and is only less than 10% of ibutilide Metabolism

Pharmacokinetics   After administration of ibutilide, it is quickly excreted by renal pathway with a half-life of approximately 6 hours   Approximately 82% metabolites is excreted in the urine, and The reminder of the drug is excreted in feces (about 19%) Excretion
