Abstract
The in vivo metabolism of the antipsychotic agent mazapertine was studied after oral administration of mazapertine succinate (40 mg/subject) to two healthy volunteers, and urine (0-24 hours) was obtained for metabolite identification using API-ionspray LC/MS and MS/MS analysis. Unchanged mazapertine (12% of the sample) plus 10 metabolites were profiled, quantified, and tentatively identified on the basis of MS data, Glusulase-hydrolysis, and by comparison to synthetic samples. The formation of mazapertine metabolites are via seven metabolic pathways: (1) phenylhydroxylation, (2) piperidyl oxidation, (3) O-dealkylation, (4) N-dephenylation, (5) oxidative N-debenzylation, (6). depiperidylation, and (7) glucuronidation. Pathways 1, 2, 5 and 7 formed 4-OH-phenyl-mazapertine (M1, 18%) and 4-OH-piperidyl (M2, 14%)-mazapertine, carboxybenzoylpiperidine (M8, 10%) and its glucuronide (M9, 14%) as four major metabolites. Six moderate and minor metabolites (M3-M7 & M10; each < or =10%) formed via a combination of pathways 1-6. Mazapertine is extensively metabolized in humans.

Abstract
The In vitro metabolism of two alpha-1A-adrenergic antagonists, RWJ-69205 and RWJ-69471 (phthalimide-phenylpiperazine analogs), was assessed after 30 and 60 min incubations with rat, dog and human hepatic S9 fractions in the presence of an NADPH-generating system. Unchanged RWJ-69205 (> or = 72% of the sample in all species) plus 3 metabolites from the RWJ-69205 incubations, and unchanged RWJ-69471 (> or = 60% of the sample in all species) and 7 metabolites from the RWJ-69471 incubations, were profiled, quantified, and tentatively identified on the basis of API-MS and MS/MS data. The formation of RWJ-69205 and RWJ-69471 metabolites are via the following five metabolic pathways: 1. phenylhydroxylation, 2. O-dealkylation, 3. oxidative N-dealkylation, 4. N-dephenylation, and 5. dehydration. Pathway 1 formed 2 major/moderate hydroxy-phenyl metabolites of 2 analogs (4-17%) in all species, and pathway 2 produced 2 O-desisopropyl metabolites of 2 analogs in major/moderate (7-16%) in rat and human, and in trace (< 1%) in dog; in conjunction with pathway 1, yielded a minor diphenolic metabolite (< 1-2%) in RWJ-69471. Pathway 3 formed a minor N-dealkylated metabolite, isopropoxyphenyl piperazine (< 1-6%) in all species of 2 analogs. Pathways 4 and 5 produced 2 minor N-desphenyl metabolite and dehydrated metabolite, respectively, in rat and human S9 (< or = 1-2%) in RWJ-69471. Both RWJ-69205 and RWJ-69471 were less extensively metabolized in the dog. However, rat and human appeared to metabolize RWJ-69471 more extensively than RWJ-69205 in this hepatic system.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics and drug disposition of 14C 1-[3-[[4-[2-(1-methylethoxy)phenyl]-1-piperazinyl]methyl]benzoy]piperidine succinate (RWJ-37796, mazapertine, Mz) have been investigated in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. Approximately 93% of the orally administered radioactive dose (30 mg/kg) was recovered after 7 days. Fecal elimination accounted for approximately 63% of the dose while urine accounted for 30%. The rate of elimination of 14C Mz was rapid with 81% of the total fecal and 94% of the total urinary radioactivity being excreted within 24 h. There were no significant gender differences in the overall excretion pattern. The maximal plasma concentration of Mz and total radioactivity occurred at 0.5h after dosing and plasma concentrations were consistently higher in female rats. The Mz concentration declined rapidly in plasma with a terminal half-life<2 h. The total radioactive dose in plasma displayed a considerably longer terminal half-life of 9-13 h. Mz and a total of 15 metabolites were isolated and identified in these samples. Unchanged Mz accounted for <5% of the radioactive dose in excreta samples and <8% of the sample in plasma (0-24 h). Metabolites were formed by phenyl hydroxylation, piperidyl oxidation, O-dealkylation, N-dephenylation, oxidative N-debenzylation and glucuronide conjugation.

Abstract
The In vitro metabolism of the alpha-1A-adrenergic antagonist, RWJ-69597, an analog of pyridine-phenylpiperazines, was conducted after incubation with rat, dog and human hepatic S9 fractions in the presence of an NADPH-generating system. Unchanged RWJ-69597 (> or =43% of the sample in all species) plus 9 metabolites were profiled, quantified, and tentatively identified on the basis of API-MS and MS/MS data. The four metabolic pathways for the formation of RWJ-69597 metabolites are: 1. methyl/phenyl/piperazinylhydroxylation, 2. N/Odealkylation, 3. N-dephenylation, and 4. dehydration. Pathway 1 formed 1 major (8-36%) and 3 minor (<1-3%) hydroxylated metabolites. Pathway 2 produced 2 moderate/minor N/O-dealkylated metabolites (<1- < or =11%), and in conjunction with pathway 1, formed 1 minor diol metabolites (< or =2%). Pathways 3 and 4 generated 2 minor metabolites, N-desphenyl RWJ-69597 (< or =4%) and dehydrated RWJ-69597 (< or =2%), respectively. RWJ-69597 is more extensively metabolized in the rat than the dog or the human in this hepatic system.

Abstract
The in vitro and in vivo metabolism of RWJ-69442, an alpha-1A-adrenergic receptor antagonist, was investigated after incubation with rat, dog, and human hepatic S9 fractions in the presence of NADPH-generating system, and a single oral/iv dose administration to rats (oral: 100 mg/kg; iv: 10 mg/kg). Unchanged RWJ-69442 (> or =30% of the sample in vitro; < or =47% of the sample in vivo) plus 14 metabolites were profiled, quantified and tentatively identified on the basis of API-MS and MS/MS data. The metabolic pathways for RWJ-69442 are proposed via the 4 steps: 1. phenyl/piperazinylhydroxylation, 2. N/O-dealkylation, 3. N-dephenylation, and 4. dehydration. Pathway 1 formed OH-phenyl-RWJ-69442 (M1, 4-32% in vitro & in vivo), and diOH-RWJ-69442 (M4, <1-4% in vitro & in vivo). Pathway 2 generated O-desisopropyl-RWJ-69442 (M2, <1-21% in vitro & in vivo), N-desmethyl-RWJ-69442 (M3, 2-3% in vitro & in vivo), N-desmethyl-M2 (M6, 1-8% in vitro & in vivo), and N-dealkylated RWJ-69442 (M9, < or =1-17% in vitro & in vivo), and in conjunction with pathway 1 produced 6 minor to major oxidized metabolites, OH-M2 (M5, 1-2% in vitro), OH-M3 (M11, 4-6% in vivo), OH-M9 (M10, <1-34% in vitro & in vivo), O-desisopropyl-M9 (M12, 3-21% in vivo), O-desisopropyl-M10 (M13,2-12% in vivo), and dehydro-M13 (M14, 25% in vivo). Pathways 3 and 4 formed 2 minor metabolites, N-desphenyl-RWJ-69442 (M7, <1-12% in vitro & in vivo) and dehydrated-RWJ-69442 (M8, <1-2% in vitro), respectively. RWJ-69442 is extensively metabolized in vitro in the rat and human (except dog), and in vivo in the rat.

Abstract
The in vitro biotransformation of the antipsychotic agent, RWJ-46344 was studied after incubation with rat hepatic S9 fraction in the presence of an NADPH-generating system. Unchanged RWJ-46344 (approximately 37% of the sample) plus 12 metabolites were profiled, quantified, and tentatively identified on the basis of API (ionspray)-MS/MS/MS data. The proposed metabolic pathways for RWJ-46344 are proposed, and the six metabolic pathways are 1, O-dealkylation; 2, piperidinyl oxidation; 3, N-debenzylation; 4, phenyl hydroxylation; 5, dehydration; and 6, reduction. Pathways 1 to 3 formed O-desisopropyl RWJ-46344 (M3, approximately 13% of the sample) and its hydroxy-metabolite (M5, approximately 8%), hydroxypiperidinyl RWJ-46344 (M1, approximately 5%) and a phenylpiperidinyl metabolite (M8, approximately 24%) as major and moderate metabolites. Eight minor metabolites (each < 2%) were formed via a combination of six steps. RWJ-46344 is metabolized substantially by this rat hepatic system.

Abstract
The need to develop new antipsychotics that have fewer motor adverse effects and offer better treatment of negative symptoms has led to a new generation of drugs. Most of these drugs undergo extensive first-pass metabolism and are cleared almost exclusively by metabolism, except for amisulpride whose clearance is largely due to urinary excretion. Risperidone has metabolic routes in common with ziprasidone but shows differences in regard to other main pathways: the benzisoxazole moiety of risperidone is oxidised by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 to the active 9-hydroxyrisperidone, whereas the benzisothiazole of ziprasidone is primarily oxidised by CYP3A4, yielding sulfoxide and sulfone derivatives with low affinity for target receptors in vitro. Olanzapine, quetiapine and zotepine also have some common metabolic features. However, for the thienobenzodiazepine olanzapine a main metabolic route is direct conjugation at the benzodiazepine nucleus, whereas for the dibenzothiazepine quetiapine and the dibenzothiepine zotepine it is CYP3A4-mediated oxidation, leading to sulfoxidation, hydroxylation and dealkylation for quetiapine, but N-demethylation to the active nor-derivative for zotepine. Although the promising benzisoxazole (iloperidone) and benzisothiazole (perospirone) antipsychotics share some metabolic routes with the structurally related available drugs, they too have pharmacologically relevant compound-specific pathways. For some of the new antipsychotics we know the isoenzymes involved in their main metabolic pathways and the endogenous and exogenous factors that, by affecting enzyme activity, can potentially modify steady-state concentrations of the parent drug or its metabolite(s), but we know very little about others (e.g. amisulpride isomers, nemonapride). For yet others, information is scarce about the activity of the main metabolites and whether and how these contribute to the effect of the parent drug. Aging reduces the clearance of most antipsychotics, except amisulpride (which requires further evaluation) and ziprasidone. Liver impairment has little or no effect on the pharmacokinetics of olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone (and 9-hydroxy-risperidone) and ziprasidone, but information is lacking for amisulpride. Renal impairment significantly reduces the clearance and prolongs the elimination half-life of amisulpride and risperidone. Again, studies are still not available for some drugs (zotepine) and have focused on the parent drug for others (olanzapine, quetiapine, ziprasidone) despite the fact that renal impairment would be expected to lower the clearance of more polar metabolites. Addressing these issues may assist clinicians in the design of safe and effective regimens for this group of drugs, and in selecting the best agent for each specific population.
