Identification of the Major Circulating Metabolite of Mymd-1 And Elucidation of the Mechanism of Clearance of MYMD-1 in Humans. Role of Aldehyde Oxidase and CYP2A6

MYMD-1 is an immunomodulator that is currently entering Phase II clinical development for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. In preclinical and clinical studies, MYMD-1 has been shown to inhibit the inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-17A1,2. The objectives of the current study were to identify the human circulating metabolites in samples obtained following multiple doses of MYMD-1 and to determine the enzymes involved in their formation.
