Preclinical, Journal: Development of a novel murine heart failure model overexpressing human renin and angiotensinogen. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 11, 2021 Triple-tg mice treated with 10 mg/kg of TAK-272 (imarikiren / SCO-272), an orally active direct renin inhibitor, exhibited improvements in heart failure phenotypes, such as cardiac hypertrophy and survival rate; however, a dose of 300 mg/kg was required to improve symptoms in CSQ-tg mice. Our results suggest that this newly generated triple-tg heart failure model is useful to evaluate the cardioprotective effects of human renin inhibitors at clinically relevant doses, thereby minimizing the concerns of off-target effects related to much higher drug exposure than that achieved in clinical study.

Trial completion: A Phase 2 Dose-finding Study of TAK-272 in Participants With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Microalbuminuria (clinicaltrials.gov) - Sep 9, 2016 P2, N=415, Completed, These results strongly suggested that the pharmacokinetic of TAK-272 in humans would also be affected by the variation in the plasma AGP levels and should be discussed with not only the total concentrations but also the unbound concentrations in the clinical trial for patients with elevated plasma AGP levels.
