Pharmacodynamics

Regadenoson rapidly increases coronary blood flow (CBF) which is sustained for a short duration. Mean average peak velocity increased to greater than twice baseline by 30 seconds and decreased to less than twice the baseline level within 10 minutes. Myocardial uptake of the radiopharmaceutical is proportional to (CBF). Regadenoson increases blood flow in normal coronary arteries but not in stenotic (blocked) arteries. The significance of this finding is that stenotic arteries will take up less of the radiopharmaceutical than normal coronary arteries, resulting in a signal that is less intense in these areas.

Mechanism of action

Regadenoson is an selective low-affinity (Ki= 1.3 µM) A2A receptor agonist that mimics the effects of adenosine in causing coronary vasodilatation and increasing myocardial blood flow. It is a very weak agonist of the A1 adenosine receptor (Ki > 16.5 µM). Furthermore, it has negligible affinity to A2B and A3 adenosine receptors. Regadenoson is undergoing trials for use in pharmacological stress tests. Adenosine slows conduction time through the A-V node, can interrupt the reentry pathways through the A-V node, and can restore normal sinus rhythm in patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), including PSVT associated with Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome.

Absorption

The pharmacokinetic profile of regadenoson is best described by a 3-compartment model. T max, injection = 1 to 3 minutes; Onset of pharmacodynamic response = 1 to 3 minutes;
E max 12.3 ng/mL

Volume of distribution

Central compartment: 11.5 L; Steady state: 78.7 L

Protein binding

Not Available

Metabolism

The metabolism of regadenoson is unknown in humans. The cytochrome P450 enzyme system is not likely to be involved with the metabolism of regadenoson.

Route of elimination

58% of total regadenoson eliminate is via renal excretion

Half-life

Initial phase: 2-4 minutes; Intermediate phase: 30 minutes (this phase coincides with a loss of the pharmacodynamic effect); Terminal phase: 2 hours

Clearance

Average plasma renal clearance = 450 mL/min. As this value is larger than the glomerular filtration rate, this suggests occurrence of renal tubular secretion.
