Popis: | All along the drug development process, one of the most frequent adverse side effects, leading to the failure of drugs, is the cardiac arrhythmias. Such failure is mostly related to the capacity of the drug to inhibit the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) cardiac potassium channel. The early identification of hERG inhibition properties of biological active compounds has focused most of attention over the years. In order to prevent the cardiac side effects, a great number of in silico, in vitro and in vivo assays have been performed. The main goal of these studies is to understand the reasons of these effects, and then to give information or instructions to scientists involved in drug development to avoid the cardiac side effects. To evaluate anticipated cardiovascular effects, early evaluation of hERG toxicity has been strongly recommended for instance by the regulatory agencies such as U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA). Thus, following an initial screening of a collection of compounds to find hits, a great number of pharmacomodulation studies on the novel identified chemical series need to be performed including activity evaluation towards hERG. We provide in this concise review clear guidelines, based on described examples, illustrating successful optimization process to avoid hERG interactions as cases studies and to spur scientists to develop safe drugs. |
