VX-809
VX-809 is a CFTR corrector that partially restores the function of F508del-CFTR. In Fischer rat thyroid (FRT) cells, it increases F508del-CFTR maturation at EC50 of 0.1 μM, and elevates F508del-CFTR–mediated chloride transport at EC50 of 0.5 μM [1]. It has no effect of other ion channels (hERG), transporter (P-gp) and disease-causing mislocalized proteins (α1-antitrypsin Z mutant) [1]. VX-809 stabilizes N-terminal fragment of CFTR that contain MSD1 by altering its protein conformation [2, 3].
Homozygous F508del-CFTR is the most common mutation in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, accounting for 66–70% of CF cases worldwide. In cultured human bronchial epithelial cells that are homozygous for F508del, VX-809 restored the CFTR function and improved chloride and fluid Transport [1]. The combination of CFTR potentiators and VX-809 further improved the function of F508del-CFTR [4].
VX-809 has been tested in several clinical trials. Although it had minimal benefit to F508del-CFTR homozygous patients as a monotherapy [4], the result of Phase 2 study of VX-809 and KALYDECO combination showed significant improvements in lung function in CF patients with homozygous F508del-CFTR [5]. VX-809 is currently under investigation in two phase 3 trials.
