CGRP Receptor

MK-0974 displays affinity (Ki) for the canine and rat receptors, with values of 1204 nM and 1192 nM (n=10), respectively. MK-0974 potently blocks human α-CGRP-stimulated cAMP responses in human CGRP receptor expressing HEK293 cells with an IC50 of 2.2 nM. MK-0974 displays saturable binding to SK-N-MC membranes with a KD of 1.9 nM and Bmax of 479 fmol/mg protein. MK-0974 also displays saturable binding to rhesus cerebellum homogenate with a KD of 1.3 nM and Bmax of 20 fmol/mg.

MK-0974 (i.v. bolus, 1 mg/kg) demonstrates that the efficacy of this antagonist is time-dependent and correlated with plasma levels. The pharmacokinetics of MK-0974 remains linear across 0.5-10 mg/kg intravenous dose in monkeys, but the oral area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) increase (5-30 mg/kg) is 15-fold over dose-proportional.
