Background

Ponesimod is a selective sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 modulator indicated in the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis in adults.1,3 Ponesimod was developed out of a need for a more selective modulator of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 than fingolimod.1 Fingolimod's activity at sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 3 was suspected to be responsible for a portion of it's adverse effects, and so more selective modulators were developed.1

Ponesimod was granted FDA approval on 18 March 2021.3

Pharmacodynamics

Ponesimod is a sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 modulator indicated to treat adults with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis.3 It has a long duration of action as it is given once daily.3 Patients should be counselled about the risk of infections, bradyarrhythmia, atrioventricular conduction delays, decreased respiratory function, liver injury, increased blood pressure, cutaneous malignancies, fetal harm, and macular edema.3

Mechanism of action

The sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1P1R) is expressed on the surface of lymphocytes and detects sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) at nanomolar concentrations.2 S1P is a metabolite of the cell membrane component, sphingomyelin.2 As sphingomyelin degrades, lymphocytes respond to agonism of S1P1R by concentration gradients of S1P.2 Lymphocytes leave the lymphoid organs in response to higher concentrations of S1P in blood and lymph.2 Ponesimod modulates this response by stimulating and internalizing S1P1R on lymphocytes, effectively blinding them to concentration gradients of S1P, reducing the number of lymphocytes in blood.2,3 Ponesimod is roughly 650 times more selective for S1P1R than S1P.2

Absorption

A 10mg oral dose of ponesimod is 84% bioavailable.3 Ponesimod reaches a Cmax of 109 ng/mL, with a Tmax of 4.0 hours, and an AUC of 3872 h*ng/mL.1

Volume of distribution

The volume of distribution of ponesimod at steady state is 160 L.3

Protein binding

Ponesimod is >99% protein bound in plasma.3 Though the proteins it binds to have not been identified in literature.3

Metabolism

Ponesimod can be sulfated to the M5 metabolite, oxidized to an undefined M27 metabolite, reduced to the M6 metabolite, dealkylated to the M32 metabolite, or oxidized and hydrolyzed to the M13 metabolite.1,3 Ponesimod can also be oxidized by CYP2J2, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP4F3A, and CYP4F12 to the M12 metabolite.1,3 The undefined M27 metabolite can be glucuronidated by UGT1A1 and UGT 2B7 to the M38, M39, and M40 metabolites.1,3 The M12 metabolite is either dealkylated to the M32 metabolite or oxidized and hydrolyzed to M13.1 M13 is dealkylated to M32, which is reduced and oxidized to M48.1

Route of elimination

57.3-79.6% of a radiolabelled oral dose is recovered in the feces, with 16-26% as the unmetabolized parent compound and 22% as the M12 metabolite.1,3 10.3-18.4% of an oral dose is eliminated in the urine.1,3 0.6-1.9% of a radiolabelled dose was recovered as expired CO2.1

Half-life

Ponesimod has an elimination half life of 33 hours.3

Clearance

The clearance of ponesimod is 3.8 L/h.3

Toxicity

Patients experiencing an overdose may present with bradycardia, AV conduction block, and changes in blood pressure.3 Patients should be monitored for pulse rate and blood pressure, as well as ECGs.3 Treat patients with symptomatic and supportive measures, which may include atropine for bradycardia.3 dialysis is not expected to remove a significant amount of drug from blood.3

General Function
A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of various endogenous substrates, including fatty acids and their oxygenated derivatives (oxylipins) (PubMed:8486631, PubMed:9675028, PubMed:11461919, PubMed:15145985, PubMed:16547005, PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18182499, PubMed:18065749, PubMed:18577768). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase) (PubMed:9675028). May play a role in inactivation of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory oxylipins during the resolution of inflammation (PubMed:8486631, PubMed:9675028, PubMed:11461919, PubMed:15145985, PubMed:15364545, PubMed:16547005, PubMed:16820285, PubMed:18182499, PubMed:18065749, PubMed:18577768).
