Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Gastric ulcer (GU) is the injury of the gastric mucosa caused by the stimulation of various pathogenic factors penetrating the deep mucosal muscle layer. An increasing number of studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is highly effective in treating GU due to its multitarget, multilevel, and multi-pathway effects. AIM OF THE STUDY To review the latest research progress in the treatment of GU by TCM, including clinical and experimental studies, focusing on the target and mechanism of action of drugs and providing a theoretical basis for the treatment of GU by natural herbs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Electronic databases (PubMed, Elsevier, Springer, Web of Science, and CNKI) were searched using the keywords "gastric ulcer", "gastric mucosal lesion", "TCM" and or paired with "peptic ulcer" and "natural drugs" for studies published in the last fifteen years until 2023. RESULTS TCM, including single components of natural products, Chinese patent medicines (CPM), and TCM decoction, is expected to treat GU by regulating various mechanisms, such as redox balance, inflammatory factors, angiogenesis, gastric mucosal protective factors, intestinal flora, apoptosis, and autophagy. CONCLUSIONS We discussed and summarized the mechanism of TCM in the treatment of GU, which provided a sufficient basis for TCM treatment of GU.

Abstract
4-Pyrimidone-2-thioethers can be useful synthetic precursors to densely functionalized pyrimidines, commonly encountered in bioactive molecules. A convenient one-pot access to 4-pyrimidone-2-thioethers is reported herein, which utilizes a sequential base- and acid-mediated condensation of alkylisothioureas with β-ketoesters. Owing to mild reaction conditions, good to excellent functional group tolerance and yields are achieved. The utility of this approach is demonstrated by the synthesis of the crucial adagrasib intermediate on a 200 gram scale.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have several limitations to their efficacy including insufficient acid suppression, slow onset of action, and variable efficacy among patients due to CYP2C19 metabolism. Potassium-competitive acid blockers inhibit H+-K+-ATPase in a reversible and K+-competitive manner, are novel acid suppressive drugs with rapid onset of action, meal independence, and prolonged control of intragastric acidity compared to PPIs. Potassium-competitive acid blockers exhibited non-inferior therapeutic efficacies on reflux esophagitis, gastric ulcers, and Helicobacter pylori eradication. The review is focused on the unmet needs across the acid-related diseases and recent updates on clinical studies using vonoprazan and tegoprazan.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), the most commonly used antisecretory medi-cations in the management of reflux illness, virtually eliminate elective surgery for ulcer disease, and relegate anti-reflux surgery to patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) who are inadequately managed by medical therapy. However, PPI medications still leave some therapeutic demands of GERD unmet. Furthermore, up to 40%-55% of daily PPI users have chronic symptoms, due to PPI refractoriness. Potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) transcend many of the problems and limits of PPIs, delivering quick, powerful, and extended acid suppression and allowing for treatment of numerous unmet needs. Recently, it has become clear that compromised mucosal integrity plays a role in the etiology of GERD. As a result, esophageal mucosal protection has emerged as a novel and potential treatment approach. An increasing body of research demonstrates that when P-CABs are used as primary drugs or add-on drugs (to regular treatment), they provide a considerable extra benefit, particularly in alleviating symptoms that do not respond to PPI therapy.

Abstract
Parietal cells are responsible for gastric acid secretion, which aids in the digestion of food, absorption of minerals, and control of harmful bacteria. However, a fine balance of activators and inhibitors of parietal cell-mediated acid secretion is required to ensure proper digestion of food, while preventing damage to the gastric and duodenal mucosa. As a result, parietal cell secretion is highly regulated through numerous mechanisms including the vagus nerve, gastrin, histamine, ghrelin, somatostatin, glucagon-like peptide 1, and other agonists and antagonists. The tight regulation of parietal cells ensures the proper secretion of HCl. The H+-K+-ATPase enzyme expressed in parietal cells regulates the exchange of cytoplasmic H+ for extracellular K+. The H+ secreted into the gastric lumen by the H+-K+-ATPase combines with luminal Cl- to form gastric acid, HCl. Inhibition of the H+-K+-ATPase is the most efficacious method of preventing harmful gastric acid secretion. Proton pump inhibitors and potassium competitive acid blockers are widely used therapeutically to inhibit acid secretion. Stimulated delivery of the H+-K+-ATPase to the parietal cell apical surface requires the fusion of intracellular tubulovesicles with the overlying secretory canaliculus, a process that represents the most prominent example of apical membrane recycling. In addition to their unique ability to secrete gastric acid, parietal cells also play an important role in gastric mucosal homeostasis through the secretion of multiple growth factor molecules. The gastric parietal cell therefore plays multiple roles in gastric secretion and protection as well as coordination of physiological repair.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is characterized by acid and bile reflux in the distal oesophagus, and this may cause the development of reflux esophagitis and Barrett's oesophagus (BE). The natural histological course of untreated BE is non-dysplastic or benign BE (ND), then lowgrade (LGD) and High-Grade Dysplastic (HGD) BE, with the expected increase in malignancy transfer to oesophagal adenocarcinoma (EAC). The gold standard for BE diagnostics involves high-resolution white-light endoscopy, followed by uniform endoscopy findings description (Prague classification) with biopsy performance according to Seattle protocol. The medical treatment of GERD and BE includes the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) regarding symptoms control. It is noteworthy that long-term use of PPIs increases gastrin level, which can contribute to transfer from BE to EAC, as a result of its effects on the proliferation of BE epithelium. Endoscopy treatment includes a wide range of resection and ablative techniques, such as radio-frequency ablation (RFA), often concomitantly used in everyday endoscopy practice (multimodal therapy). RFA promotes mucosal necrosis of treated oesophagal region via high-frequency energy. Laparoscopic surgery, partial or total fundoplication, is reserved for PPIs and endoscopy indolent patients or in those with progressive disease. This review aims to explain distinct effects of PPIs and RFA modalities, illuminate certain aspects of molecular mechanisms involved, as well as the effects of their concomitant use regarding the treatment of BE and prevention of its transfer to EAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tegoprazan is a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker that has a fast onset of action and can control gastric pH for a prolonged period, which could offer clinical benefit in acid-related disorders. AIM To confirm the non-inferiority of tegoprazan to esomeprazole in patients with erosive oesophagitis (EE). METHODS In this multicentre, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group comparison study, 302 Korean patients with endoscopically confirmed EE (Los Angeles Classification Grades A-D) were randomly allocated to either tegoprazan (50 or 100 mg) or esomeprazole (40 mg) treatment groups for 4 or 8 weeks. The primary endpoint was the cumulative proportion of patients with healed EE confirmed by endoscopy up to 8 weeks from treatment initiation. Symptoms, safety and tolerability were also assessed. RESULTS The cumulative healing rates at week 8 were 98.9% (91/92), 98.9% (90/91) and 98.9% (87/88) for tegoprazan 50 mg, tegoprazan 100 mg and esomeprazole 40 mg, respectively. Both doses of tegoprazan were non-inferior to esomeprazole 40 mg. The incidence of adverse events was comparable among the groups, and tegoprazan was well-tolerated. CONCLUSION Once daily administration of tegoprazan 50 or 100 mg showed non-inferior efficacy in healing EE and tolerability to that of esomeprazole 40 mg.

Abstract
A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed for YH4808, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, using the SimCYP® Simulator based on the physicochemical, in vitro preclinical and clinical data of YH4808. The PBPK model was optimized using YH4808 concentrations obtained from the single-dose phase I clinical trial. Overall, the PBPK model adequately predicted the observed pharmacokinetic profiles of YH4808 in humans. The pharmacokinetic profiles of YH4808 after multiple oral administrations were predicted using a refined PBPK model. The ratios of model-predicted to observed Cmax, AUCinf and AUCτ values on Day 1 and Day 7 at 100 mg were 0.7-1.0. However, the model failed to predict a decreased exposure after multiple oral administration particularly at higher doses of 200 and 400 mg. The reduced solubility of YH4808 at higher pH was hypothesized as the main cause of the reduction in exposure such that absorption was decreased as pH was increased. This hypothesis was confirmed by PBPK modeling and simulation, where intragastric pH was increased by YH4808.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors are commonly utilized for the treatment of gastric acid-related diseases, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, and Helicobacter pylori infection, and for the prevention of low-dose aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced peptic ulcers. Vonoprazan is a first-in-class potassium-competitive acid blocker, which has distinct advantages compared to other conventional proton pump inhibitors in terms of the efficacy for acid suppression. Due to its strong gastric acid suppression capabilities, vonoprazan serves as an effective drug for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and H. pylori infection.

Abstract
Potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) is a class of drug that competitively blocks the potassium-binding site of H+, K+-adenosine triphosphate (ATP)ase. Although the history of this class of drugs started over 30 years ago, clinical use of two P-CABs, revaprazan and vonoprazan, were only recently approved in Korea and Japan, respectively. Among them, vonoprazan has several advantages over conventional proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), including rapid onset of action, long duration of acid suppression, fewer interindividual variations in terms of acid suppression, and minimum dietary influence on its action. These advantages of vonoprazan have been proved in clinical trials conducted for license approvals for several acid-related diseases. In this review article, current evidence of vonoprazan in the management of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) will be summarized. Since the clinical trial data, as well as postmarketed clinical data, have consistently demonstrated superiority of vonoprazan over conventional PPIs in terms of achieving healing of mucosal breaks and maintaining the healing, it may provide an excellent, if not complete, option for fulfilling some of the unmet needs for current GERD therapy. The safety problem of vonoprazan is also discussed, as more pronounced hypergastrinemia inevitably ensues with its use.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to compare three strategies for enhancing the solubility of poorly water-soluble revaprazan hydrochloride: solid dispersion, solid SNEDDS and inclusion compound. The influence of polymers, surfactants and oils on the drug solubility was assessed, and via the chosen carriers, the three types of formulations were prepared utilising spray drying technique. Their physicochemical properties, solubility, dissolution and pharmacokinetics in rats were performed compared with revaprazan powder. Among the liquid SNEDDS formulations assessed, the compositions of revaprazan, peceol, Tween 80 and Labrasol (10:15:55:30, weight ratio) provided the smallest emulsion size. Moreover, this liquid SNEDDS and dextran were suspended/dissolved in distilled water, and spray-dried, producing an optimal revaprazan-loaded solid SNEDDS. The appropriate solid dispersion and inclusion compound were composed of revaprazan, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and cremophor A25 (5:1.4:5.6) and drug and hydroxyl-β-cyclodextrin (2.5:8.77), respectively. The crystalline drug was converted to an amorphous state in all formulations. In the solid dispersion, the drug was attached to the hydrophilic carrier. The solid SNEDDS and inclusion compound contained aggregate microspheres and separate microspheres, respectively. All formulations significantly increased the drug solubility, dissolution, plasma concentration and AUC compared with revaprazan powder. These properties were ranked in the order solid dispersion ≥ solid SNEDDS > inclusion compound. Particularly, the solid dispersion improved about 9500-fold drug solubility and 10-fold oral bioavailability. Thus, the improved properties were considerably dependent upon these techniques, although all of the techniques employed similar mechanisms. Among the strategies checked, the solid dispersion system would be recommended as an oral revaprazan-loaded pharmaceutical product.

Abstract
The management of proton pump inhibitor-refractory GERD (rGERD) is a challenge in clinical practice. Since up to one-third of patients with typical GERD symptoms (heartburn and/or acid regurgitation) are not satisfied with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy, new drug development targeting different pathophysiologies of GERD is imperative. At present, no other drugs serve as a more potent acid suppression agent than PPIs. As an add-on therapy, histamine type-2 receptor antagonists, alginates, prokinetics and transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation inhibitors have some impact on the subgroups of rGERD, but greater effectiveness and fewer adverse effects for widespread use are required. Visceral hypersensitivity also contributes to the perception of GERD symptoms, and neuromodulators including antidepressants play a role in this category. Esophageal pH-impedance monitoring helps to distinguish functional heartburn from true GERD, and psychologic medication and cognitive behavior therapy are further therapy options instead of PPIs.

Yi S, Lee H, Jang SB, Byun HM, Yoon SH, Cho JY, Jang IJ, Yu KS. A novel K+ competitive acid blocker, YH4808, sustains inhibition of gastric acid secretion with a faster onset than esomeprazole: randomised clinical study in healthy volunteers. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2017; 46:337-346. [PMID: 28543183 DOI: 10.1111/apt.14148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2016] [Revised: 06/06/2016] [Accepted: 04/25/2017] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND YH4808, a K+ -competitive acid blocker, is under clinical development for the treatment of acid-related disorders, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease. AIMS To determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of YH4808, compared to placebo and esomeprazole. METHODS This double-blind, randomised, placebo- and active comparator (esomeprazole)-controlled study was conducted with 123 healthy male volunteers. We evaluated YH4808 (30-800 mg) properties, administered in single (N=55) and multiple (N=24) oral doses, and recorded the effects on 24-hour intragastric acidity. Results were compared to placebo (N=20) and esomeprazole 40 mg (N=24). RESULTS Plasma YH4808 exposure increased dose-proportionally and declined in a multi-phasic manner. YH4808 ≥200 mg/d maintained intragastric acidity at pH >4 for longer times than esomeprazole during both day and night (%Time at pH >4: >70% vs 58% of a 24-hour period, respectively; and >50% vs 33% of a 9-hour night respectively). A twice-daily regimen of YH4808 more effectively controlled intragastric pH at night than a once-daily regimen. In evaluating the mean areas under the intragastric pH-time curves in 15-minute intervals for 2 hours after dosing, we found that YH4808 had a faster onset than esomeprazole. Moreover, unlike esomeprazole, YH4808 PK and PD were not significantly affected by the CYP2C19 genotype of the subjects. YH4808 was well-tolerated at all doses administered. CONCLUSION This study showed that YH4808 produced a rapid, sustained suppression of gastric secretion with good tolerability. The results at YH4808 ≥200 mg/d provide a rationale for further clinical investigations in populations with acid-related diseases.

Abstract
Potassium channels and transporters maintain potassium homeostasis and play significant roles in several different biological actions via potassium ion regulation. In previous decades, the key revelations that potassium channels and transporters are involved in the production of gastric acid and the regulation of secretion in the stomach have been recognized. Drugs used to treat peptic ulceration are often potassium transporter inhibitors. It has also been reported that potassium channels are involved in ulcerative colitis. Direct toxicity to the intestines from nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs has been associated with altered potassium channel activities. Several reports have indicated that the long-term use of the antianginal drug Nicorandil, an adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel opener, increases the chances of ulceration and perforation from the oral to anal regions throughout the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Several of these drug features provide further insights into the role of potassium channels in the occurrence of ulceration in the GI tract. The purpose of this review is to investigate whether potassium channelopathies are involved in the mechanisms responsible for ulceration that occurs throughout the GI tract.

Abstract
A new directed evolution approach is presented to enhance the activity of an enzyme and to manipulate stereoselectivity by focusing iterative saturation mutagenesis (ISM) simultaneously on residues lining the entrance tunnel and the binding pocket. This combined mutagenesis strategy was applied successfully to the monoamine oxidase from Aspergillus niger (MAO-N) in the reaction of sterically demanding substrates which are of interest in the synthesis of chiral pharmaceuticals based on the benzo-piperidine scaffold. Reversal of enantioselectivity of Turner-type deracemization was achieved in the synthesis of (S)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-methyl-isoquinoline, (S)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-ethylisoquinoline and (S)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-isopropylisoquinoline. Extensive molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the altered catalytic profile is due to increased hydrophobicity of the entrance tunnel acting in concert with the altered shape of the binding pocket.

Abstract
Acid-related diseases (ARDs), such as peptic ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease, represent a major health-care concern. Some major milestones in our understanding of gastric acid secretion and ARD treatment reached during the last 50years include 1) discovery of histamine H2-receptors and development of H2-receptor antagonists, 2) identification of H+,K+-ATPase as the parietal cell proton pump and development of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), and 3) identification of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) as the major cause of peptic ulcers and development of effective eradication regimens. Although PPI treatments have been effective and successful, there are limitations to their efficacy and usage, i.e. short half-life, insufficient acid suppression, slow onset of action, and large variation in efficacy among patients due to CYP2C19 metabolism. Potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) inhibit H+,K+-ATPase in a reversible and K+-competitive manner, and exhibit almost complete inhibition of gastric acid secretion from the first dose. Many pharmaceutical companies have tried to develop P-CABs, but most of their clinical development has been discontinued due to safety concerns or a similar efficacy to PPIs. Revaprazan was developed in Korea and was the first P-CAB approved for sale. Vonoprazan, approved in 2014 in Japan, has a completely different chemical structure and higher pKa value compared to other P-CABs, and exhibits rapid onset of action and prolonged control of intragastric acidity. Vonoprazan is an effective treatment for ARDs that is especially effective in healing reflux esophagitis and for H. pylori eradication. P-CABs, such as vonoprazan, promise to further improve the management of ARDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The potassium-competitive acid blocker vonoprazan (VPZ) has potent acid-inhibitory effects and may offer clinical advantages over conventional therapy for acid-related disorders. AIM To investigate the efficacy and safety of VPZ in patients with erosive oesophagitis (EO). METHODS In this multicentre, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, dose-ranging study, patients ≥20 years with endoscopically confirmed EO [Los Angeles (LA) grades A-D] received VPZ 5, 10, 20 or 40 mg, or lansoprazole (LPZ) 30 mg once daily for 8 weeks. The primary endpoint was the proportion of healed EO subjects as shown by endoscopy at week 4. RESULTS A total of 732 subjects received VPZ or LPZ. The proportion of healed EO subjects at week 4 was 92.3%, 92.5%, 94.4%, 97.0% and 93.2%, respectively, with VPZ 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg and LPZ 30 mg. All VPZ doses were non-inferior to LPZ when adjusted for baseline LA grades A/B and C/D. Among those with LA grades C/D, the proportions of healed EO subjects were 87.3%, 86.4%, 100%, 96.0% and 87.0%, respectively, with VPZ 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg and LPZ 30 mg. The incidence of adverse events was similar across the groups. CONCLUSIONS Vonoprazan was effective and non-inferior to LPZ in healing EO. VPZ 20 mg or higher was highly efficacious for severe EO (LA grades C/D). VPZ was associated with no safety concern during this 8-week study, while there was a dose-dependent increase in serum gastrin. Once-daily VPZ 20 mg is the recommended clinical dose for treating EO.

Abstract
Acid-related diseases of the upper gastrointestinal tract, especially gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), remain a widespread problem worldwide. In this paper, we reported the design, synthesis, and preliminary gastric antisecretory activity evaluation of novel pyrimidine derivatives as acid pump antagonists. The gastric antisecretory activity assay results showed that all compounds displayed potent gastric antisecretory activity when gastric secretion was stimulated by histamine. The most potent compound 5g exhibited even similar gastric antisecretory activity compared with the control revaprazan, and the relative inhibition rate was 93.0%, which was worthy of further investigation.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are acid-activated prodrugs which covalently bind to the gastric H,K-ATPase on its luminal surface. Only active pumps can be inhibited. The short plasma residence time of current PPIs prevents inhibition of pumps synthesized or activated after the PPI has disappeared, limiting the degree of acid inhibition even with BID administration. PPIs with a longer residence time should improve acid control. Various K(+) competitive inhibitors of the pump are being developed (APAs or PCABs), with the advantage of complete inhibition of acid secretion independent of pump activity. Early data on these suggest that twice a day administration would improve acid control compared to PPIs.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a common disorder with troublesome symptoms caused by reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus, has adverse impact on quality of life. A variety of medications have been used in GERD treatment, and acid suppression therapy is the mainstay of treatment for GERD. Although proton pump inhibitor is the most potent acid suppressant and provides good efficacy in esophagitis healing and symptom relief, about one-third of patients with GERD still have persistent symptoms with poor response to standard dose PPI. Antacids, alginate, histamine type-2 receptor antagonists, and prokinetic agents are usually used as add-on therapy to PPI in clinical practice. Development of novel therapeutic agents has focused on the underlying mechanisms of GERD, such as transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation, motility disorder, mucosal protection, and esophageal hypersensitivity. Newer formulations of PPI with faster and longer duration of action and potassium-competitive acid blocker, a newer acid suppressant, have also been investigated in clinical trials. In this review, we summarize the current and developing therapeutic agents for GERD treatment.

Abstract
First-time-in-human studies are small, time-lagged dose-escalation studies including volunteer subjects evaluating safety and tolerability. There is little consensus in the design of a first-time-in-human study, and it is difficult to get an overview of studies performed. One hundred five studies comprising 3323 healthy volunteers published in the 5 major clinical pharmacology journals since 1995 were analyzed. The average trial was placebo controlled, double blind including 32 subjects at 5 dose levels but with great variation in cohort size and dose-escalation method. The parallel single-dose design was the most common design, with the crossover designs being more frequent in the early publications. Despite discussions on the optimization of phase I trials, little seems to be happening. The development of study designs and evaluation methods for cancer trials is extensive, but formal statistically based methods and more scientific study designs are unusual in phase I dose-escalation trials in healthy volunteers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, no definitive treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD) has been proven to be effective and reasonably well-tolerated. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) combined with prokinetic agents are considered an effective option. Revaprazan is a selective potassium-competitive acid blocker that reversibly inhibits gastric H(+)/K(+)-ATPase and shows effective acid suppression comparable to PPIs. Itopride is a prokinetic agent that has anticholinesterase activity as well as dopamine D(2) receptor antagonistic activity. For this reason, revaprazan and itopride have been prescribed for FD; however, no available studies have reported the pharmacokinetic interactions of these 2 drugs. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to compare the bioavailability and tolerability of revaprazan and itopride combination therapy to those of equally dosed monotherapies to acquire basic drug-drug interaction information about revaprazan. METHODS This multiple-dose, randomized crossover study was conducted in healthy male Korean subjects. Subjects received, in randomized sequence, a 7-day oral dose of revaprazan 200 mg once daily, itopride 50 mg TID, or both. Each treatment period was separated by a 7-day washout period. Blood samples were collected for up to 24 hours following the last dose at steady state, and drug concentrations were determined using validated LC/MS-MS. Pharmacokinetic properties were obtained using noncompartmental analysis. Drug tolerability was assessed throughout the study, using measurements of vital signs, clinical chemistry testing, and interviews. RESULTS A total of 30 subjects were enrolled in the study. Among them, 28 subjects completed revaprazan treatment, and 27 completed the study (3 subjects were withdrawn). The geometric mean ratios (GMRs) (90% CI) of C(max,ss), and AUC(τ,ss) with revaprazan were 0.92 (0.84-1.00) and 0.96 (0.89-1.03), respectively. The GMRs of C(max,ss) and AUC(τ,ss) with itopride were 1.07 (0.96-1.20) and 1.12 (1.06-1.18), respectively. A total of 15 adverse events (AEs) were reported in 8 subjects. All AEs were considered to be mild, and there were no clinically significant differences between treatment groups. CONCLUSION The findings from this study suggest bioequivalence between revaprazan given as monotherapy and in combination with itopride in these healthy Korean male volunteers, with no clinical significant drug-drug interaction. All treatments in this study was generally well tolerated. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT0133289.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The term "stress-related mucosal disease" (SRMD) represents conditions ranging from superficial mucosal damage to focal deep mucosal damage in the stomach, of which pathogenesis is deduced to be violent mucosal ischemia or excess oxidative stress, but not fully clarified yet. Under the hypothesis that mucosal cell apoptosis subsequent to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress might play a crucial role, we evaluated the efficacy and mechanism that novel acid pump antagonist (APA), revaprazan, alleviated water immersion restraint stress (WIRS) induced SRMD in rats. METHODS In order to define whether WIRS-induced SRMD is associated with ER stress, we checked the alteration in the expression of ER stress markers including GRP78, CHOP, XBP-1, BiP as well as apoptosis in WIRS-induced SRMD. The efficacy of revaprazan on either alleviating ER stress or attenuating SRMD was compared with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and gastroprotectant. RESULTS Ten hours of WIRS induced a severe degree of SRMD, in which ER stress markers including CHOP, XBP1, and BiP were significantly overexpressed in the gastric tissues. However, these markers of ER stress were significantly decreased in the group pretreated with revaprazan compared to PPI or gastroprotectant, accompanied with a significant reduction in apoptotic index. In addition to ER stress, revaprazan imposed anti-inflammatory benefit to limit SRMD based on significant levels of inflammatory cell apoptosis. CONCLUSION Endoplasmic reticulum stress accompanied with drastic apoptosis was implicated in the development of SRMD, but revaprazan could rescue the stomach from SRMD through alleviating ER stress in epithelial cells much better than either PPI or gastroprotectant.

Abstract
Revaprazan is the first acid pump antagonist with a function similar to that of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It has a dual action, active suppression of gastric acid secretion and gastric mucosa protection. While PPIs are known to enhance the prolongation of prothrombin time by warfarin, no research has been done on the drug interaction between revaprazan and warfarin. This study was conducted in order to verify the potential drug interaction between revaprazan and warfarin. Omeprazole, a representative PPI, was used as the control for revaprazan. We searched for patients who were given either revaprazan or omeprazole along with warfarin using the medical record database of Seoul National University Hospital between July 2007 and June 2010. Among the 15 patients who took revaprazan and warfarin together, 73.3% (11/15) showed more than 30% reduction of anticoagulation effect by warfarin after revaprazan was added. The revaprazan group showed a significant shortening of prothrombin time during revaprazan administration compared to pre- and post-revaprazan medication (P < 0.05) while the omeprazole group did not show such difference. Revaprazan seems to have cumulative dose-dependent anti-warfarin or anti-coagulation effect, as judged from the fact that the longer medication with revaprazan showed correlation with the shortening of prothrombin time (R = -0.632, P < 0.05). This study shows a possible interaction between revaprazan and warfarin and suggests that revaprazan can cause shortening of prothrombin time. Therefore, when revaprazan is prescribed to patients on warfarin therapy, prothrombin time should be frequently monitored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Revaprazan (Revanex(R)) is a novel proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that has a somewhat different effect on proton pump compared with the other PPI's, also (called as 'acid pump antagonist'). We aimed to examine the false negative rate of 13C-urea breath test (UBT) in the patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) associated peptic ulcer disease who were treated with revaprazan and evaluate the anti-urease activity of revaprazan. METHODS Total 55 patients were enrolled in this study. They received EGD examination between January 2009 and December 2009 and diagnosed histologically as H. pylori associated peptic ulcer disease. All patients took revaprazan only. Three patients were excluded because of underlying chronic disease and inappropriate breath sampling. The remaining 52 patients had UBT at 0, 2 and 4 weeks of revaprazan use. After 2 weeks of the cessation of revaprazan, they had the fourth UBT. RESULTS At 2 and 4 weeks, the false negative rates of UBT were 5.8% and 23.1%, respectively (p=0.05). After 2 weeks of the cessation, the cases of the false negative result were five. Four out of five patients had prolonged negative results on two or three successive tests, and baseline 13C difference value did not predict the false negative results. CONCLUSIONS False negative results of UBT were common and increased with prolonged use of acid pump antagonist. As PPI, it had also anti-urease activity and most patients (47/52, 90.4%) reverted to positive results by 2 weeks after the cessation of taking the medication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are crucial for the maintenance of cellular integrity during normal cell growth as well as pathophysiological conditions. While acting as molecular chaperones with their folding activities, HSPs play a cytoprotective role to rescue epithelial cells from several gastric damages including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and Helicobacter pylori. Since the exact relationship between HSP27 phosphorylation and biological function remains unknown in NSAID-induced gastropathy, we hypothesized that revaprazan, a novel acid pump antagonist, can secure significant cytoprotection from NSAID damages through HSP27 accentuation. METHODS We evaluated protective actions of revaprazan against either in vivo animal model of indomethacin induced gastropathy or in vitro cell model focused on HSP27 expression and activation. RESULTS Indomethacin induced significant cytotoxicities accompanied with phosphorylated HSP27 and attenuated levels of HSP27 in the in vitro cell experiment and revaprazan administration protected stomach from indomethacin-induced gastric damages in accordance with HSP27 dephosphorylation in the in vivo animal experiment. HSP27 siRNA abolished these cytoprotective privileges of revaprazan. Indomethacin, 40 mg/kg, po, administration provoked significant levels of gastric damages accompanied with decrement in HSP27, while rats administrated with revaprazan prior to indomethacin imposed the accentuation of HSP27, of which levels were significantly correlated with the prevention of the indomethacin-induced gastric damages. CONCLUSION HSP27 phosphorylation with resultant decrease in HSP27 level was one of the mechanisms of indomethacin-induced cytotoxicity, of which post-translational modifications were prevented with revaprazan administration in the presence of indomethacin. Therefore, acid pump antagonist could be a choice for the prevention of NSAID-induced gastropathy backed up with distinctive cytoprotective action beyond acid suppressor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Revaprazan is a novel acid pump antagonist. The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of revaprazan on gastric acid secretion in healthy male subjects. METHODS In a double-blind, three-way cross-over study, 30 healthy male volunteers were randomized to 100, 150 or 200 mg of oral revaprazan daily for 7 days. Serum gastrin concentration was measured, and 24-h intragastric pH was recorded at baseline and on days 1 and 7 of each administration period. Serial blood samples were processed for pharmacokinetics. RESULTS Median intragastric pH over 24 h and mean percentage time that pH was > 4 increased in a dose-dependent manner and were significantly higher on days 1 and 7 compared with baseline in all groups (P < 0.05). The antisecretory effect of revaprazan was rapid and nearly maximal on day 1 in all groups. Serum gastrin levels were rapidly normalized by 100 and 150 mg/day of revaprazan on days 1 and 7, but were significantly higher in the 200 mg/day revaprazan group. The pharmacokinetic effect was rapidly absorbed and eliminated on days 1 and 7 in all groups. CONCLUSIONS Revaprazan rapidly and effectively inhibits gastric acid secretion in healthy male subjects. Therefore, revaprazan can be used as an effective drug for acid-related disease.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used in the treatment of acid-related diseases. However, several unmet medical needs, such as suppression of night-time acid secretion and rapid symptom relief, remain. In this study, we investigated the pharmacological effects of 1-[5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1-(pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]-N-methylmethanamine monofumarate (TAK-438), a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB), on gastric acid secretion in comparison with lansoprazole, a typical PPI, and SCH28080 [3-(cyanomethyl)-2-methyl,8-(phenylmethoxy)imidazo(1,2-a)pyridine], a prototype of P-CAB. TAK-438, SCH28080, and lansoprazole inhibited H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in porcine gastric microsomes with IC(50) values of 0.019, 0.14, and 7.6 μM, respectively, at pH 6.5. The inhibitory activity of TAK-438 was unaffected by ambient pH, whereas the inhibitory activities of SCH28080 and lansoprazole were weaker at pH 7.5. The inhibition by TAK-438 and SCH28080 was reversible and achieved in a K(+)-competitive manner, quite different from that by lansoprazole. TAK-438, at a dose of 4 mg/kg (as the free base) orally, completely inhibited basal and 2-deoxy-d-glucose-stimulated gastric acid secretion in rats, and its effect on both was stronger than that of lansoprazole. TAK-438 increased the pH of gastric perfusate to a higher value than did lansoprazole or SCH28080, and the effect of TAK-438 was sustained longer than that of lansoprazole or SCH28080. These results indicate that TAK-438 exerts a more potent and longer-lasting inhibitory action on gastric acid secretion than either lansoprazole or SCH28080. TAK-438 is a novel antisecretory drug that may provide a new option for the patients with acid-related disease that is refractory to, or inadequately controlled by, treatment with PPIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Revaprazan, a novel acid-pump antagonist, and proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) have pH-independent effects on ulcer healing. The addition of a PPI promotes the cell restitution rate as well as vessel regeneration and maturation for ulcer repair. Revaprazan is known to protect the mucosa by increasing the prostaglandin concentration. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for gastric neoplasia at Yeungnam University Hospital between January 2008 and May 2009. We conducted a matched case-control study to compare the healing rates effected by revaprazan and rabeprazole. RESULTS Each group consisted of 30 patients. The baseline characteristics did not differ significantly between the two groups. Stage S1 disease was observed in 97% and 100% of patients after 8 weeks of treatment in the revaprazan and rabeprazole groups, respectively. In the revaprazan group, only one patient had stage H2 disease: a 54-year-old man with a 5.5-cm lesion after ESD of the ulcer, type IIa early gastric cancer, and adenocarcinoma. No serious adverse effects occurred during the treatment period in either group. CONCLUSIONS The safety and efficacy profiles of revaprazan and rabeprazole are similar for the treatment of ESD-induced ulcers.

Abstract
The parietal cell is responsible for secreting concentrated hydrochloric acid into the gastric lumen. To fulfill this task, it is equipped with a broad variety of functionally coupled apical and basolateral ion transport proteins. The concerted scientific effort over the last years by a variety of researchers has provided us with the molecular identity of many of these transport mechanisms, thereby contributing to the clarification of persistent controversies in the field. This article will briefly review the current model of parietal cell physiology and ion transport in particular and will update the existing models of apical and basolateral transport in the parietal cell.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The lowest effective dose of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) for prevention of peptic ulcer rebleeding remains unclear. The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether low-dose PPI has a similar efficacy to high-dose i.v. administration for maintaining intragastric pH above 6. METHODS Sixty-one patients with bleeding ulcers were randomized into one of three groups after endoscopic hemostasis: pantoprazole 80 mg bolus followed by 8 mg/h; 40 mg, 4 mg/h infusion; and bolus injection of 40 mg every 24 h. Intragastric pH values and rebleeding rates were measured. In addition, pharmacokinetic parameters and association with CYP2C19 polymorphisms and H. pylori infection were assessed. RESULTS Mean percentage of time with intragastric pH > 6, and the proportion of patients with pH > 6 for more than 60% of the time were significantly higher in the 40 mg, 4 mg/h infusion group compared to the 40 mg bolus injection. There was no significant difference between the 80 mg, 8 mg/h and the 40 mg, 4 mg/h groups. In the H. pylori (-) group, only 40% of patients that received continuous infusion reached the target pH > 6 for more than 60% of the time; this was significantly lower than the H. pylori (+) group, 87.5% (P = 0.026). CONCLUSIONS A continuous infusion, regardless of high or low dose, was more effective for acid suppression than a 40 mg bolus PPI injection in Korea. H. pylori infection was an important factor for the maintenance of an intragastric pH > 6.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase, a member of the P(2)-type ATPase family, is the integral membrane protein responsible for gastric acid secretion. It is an alpha,beta-heterodimeric enzyme that exchanges cytoplasmic hydronium with extracellular potassium. The catalytic alpha subunit has ten transmembrane segments with a cluster of intramembranal carboxylic amino acids located in the middle of the transmembrane segments TM4, TM5,TM6, and TM8. Comparison to the known structure of the SERCA pump, mutagenesis, and molecular modeling has identified these as constituents of the ion binding domain. The beta subunit has one transmembrane segment with N terminus in cytoplasmic region. The extracellular domain of the beta subunit contains six or seven N-linked glycosylation sites. N-glycosylation is important for the enzyme assembly, maturation, and sorting. The enzyme pumps acid by a series of conformational changes from an E(1) (ion site in) to an E(2) (ion site out) configuration following binding of MgATP and phosphorylation. Several experimental observations support the hypothesis that expulsion of the proton at 160 mM (pH 0.8) results from movement of lysine 791 into the ion binding site in the E(2)P configuration. Potassium access from the lumen depends on activation of a K and Cl conductance via a KCNQ1/KCNE2 complex and Clic6. K movement through the luminal channel in E(2)P is proposed to displace the lysine along with dephosphorylation to return the enzyme to the E(1) configuration. This enzyme is inhibited by the unique proton pump inhibitor class of drug, allowing therapy of acid-related diseases.

Abstract
The gastric H+,K+-ATPase of the parietal cell is responsible for acid secretion in the stomach and is the main target in the pharmacological treatment of acid-related diseases. Omeprazole and other benzimidazole drugs, although having delayed efficacy if taken orally, have high success rates in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease. Potassium competitive acid blockers (P-CAB) compete with K+ for binding to the H+,K+-ATPase and thereby they inhibit acid secretion. In this study, the in vitro properties of AZD0865, a reversible H+,K+-ATPase inhibitor of gastric acid secretion, are described. We used a digital-imaging system and the pH sensitive dye BCECF to observe proton efflux from hand-dissected rat gastric glands. Glands were stimulated with histamine (100 microM) and exposed to a bicarbonate- and Na+-free perfusate to induce an acid load. H+,K+-ATPase inhibition was determined by calculating pHi recovery (dpH/dT) in the presence of omeprazole (10-200 microM) or AZD0865 (0.01-100 microM). The efficacies of both drugs were compared. Our data show that acid secretion is inhibited by both the proton pump inhibitor omeprazole and the P-CAB AZD0865. Complete inhibition of acid secretion by AZD0865 had a rapid onset of activation, was reversible, and occurred at a 100-fold lower dose than omeprazole (1 microM AZD0865 vs. 100 microM omeprazole). This study demonstrates that AZD0865 is a potent, fast-acting inhibitor of gastric acid secretion, effective at lower concentrations than drugs of the benzimidazole class. Therefore, these data strongly suggest that AZD0865 has great potential as a fast-acting, low-dose inhibitor of acid secretion.

Abstract
Although proton pump inhibitors have become the mainstay of treatment in gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), there are still unmet needs in the management of this very common disorder. For example, all current proton pump inhibitors have a relatively slow onset of action and their activity is limited mainly to the post-prandial period with far less effective inhibition of nocturnal acid secretion. In order to achieve more potent, rapid and sustained acid inhibition several compounds are currently under development, such as new proton pump inhibitors with a prolonged plasma half-life, potassium competitive ATPase blockers (PCABs), histamine H3 agonists, and gastrin antagonists. Acid suppression does not, however, cure the disease and relapses are frequently observed after discontinuation of proton pump inhibitor therapy. Among the different abnormalities involved in the pathophysiology of this multifactorial disease, transient lower oesophageal sphincter relaxations represent the major mechanism responsible for episodes of reflux. Baclofen, the prototype GABA(B) receptor agonist, is one of the most potent inhibitors of transient lower oesophageal sphincter relaxations identified. To date the transfer of these relaxation-controlling pharmacological agents into clinical practice has however been hampered by the occurrence of unacceptable side effects. Beside "anti-relaxation therapy", the potential of novel prokinetics such as motilin agonists has been explored, especially since the motilin receptor has been cloned. Thus far the broad therapeutic value of prokinetics in GORD does, however, seem very limited in terms of efficacy with respect to oesophageal motility and acid exposure. Lastly, further research is necessary to better understand the complex mechanisms involved in oesophageal sensitivity and mucosal defence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Febuxostat is a novel non-purine selective inhibitor of xanthine oxidase currently being developed for the management of hyperuricemia in patients with gout. OBJECTIVE To investigate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety of febuxostat over a range of oral doses in healthy subjects. METHODS In a phase I, dose-escalation study, febuxostat was studied in dose groups (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 70, 90, 120, 160, 180 and 240 mg) of 12 subjects each (10 febuxostat plus 2 placebo). In all groups, subjects were confined for 17 days and were administered febuxostat once daily on day 1, and days 3-14. During the course of the study, blood and urine samples were collected to assess the pharmacokinetics of febuxostat and its metabolites, and its pharmacodynamic effects on uric acid, xanthine and hypoxanthine concentrations after both single and multiple dose administration. Safety measurements were also obtained during the study. RESULTS Orally administered febuxostat was rapidly absorbed with a median time to reach maximum plasma concentration following drug administration of 0.5-1.3 hours. The pharmacokinetics of febuxostat were not time dependent (day 14 vs day 1) and remained linear within the 10-120 mg dose range, with a mean apparent total clearance of 10-12 L/h and an apparent volume of distribution at steady state of 33-64 L. The harmonic mean elimination half-life of febuxostat ranged from 1.3 to 15.8 hours. The increase in the area under the plasma concentration-time curve of febuxostat at doses >120 mg appeared to be greater than dose proportional, while the febuxostat maximum plasma drug concentration was dose proportional across all the doses studied. Based on the urinary data, febuxostat appeared to be metabolised via glucuronidation (22-44% of the dose) and oxidation (2-8%) with only 1-6% of the dose being excreted unchanged via the kidneys. Febuxostat resulted in significant decreases in serum and urinary uric acid concentrations and increases in serum and urinary xanthine concentrations. The percentage decrease in serum uric acid concentrations ranged from 27% to 76% (net change: 1.34-3.88 mg/dL) for all doses and was dose linear for the 10-120 mg/day dosage range. The majority of adverse events were mild-to-moderate in intensity. CONCLUSION Febuxostat was well tolerated at once-daily doses of 10-240 mg. There appeared to be a linear pharmacokinetic and dose-response (percentage decrease in serum uric acid) relationship for febuxostat dosages within the 10-120 mg range. Febuxostat was extensively metabolised and renal function did not seem to play an important role in its elimination from the body.

Abstract
The medical management of patients with gastrointestinal diseases is advancing rapidly. At a recent symposium held during Digestive Disease Week in Chicago in May of 2005, specific attention was given to the future prospects for medical management of 3 common gastrointestinal disease areas: antisecretory therapy, chronic hepatitis C, and inflammatory bowel disease. Antisecretory approaches include drug combinations including a proton pump inhibitor, potassium competitive acid blockers, and antigastrin agents. The latter two classes are still experimental, but the former combinations have potential to enhance the highly effective agents currently available. The focus of treatment advances in chronic hepatitis C in the immediate future is the discovery of more effective treatment regimens for nonresponders to prior therapy, who are becoming the largest group of patients seeking treatment of hepatitis C. The combination of peginterferon with ribavirin results in 6%-15% sustained virologic response rates in patients who were prior nonresponders to standard interferon plus ribavirin. Newer strategies to eradicate hepatitis C virus infection using different interferons, such as interferon alfacon-1 or higher doses of peginterferon, or long-term maintenance peginterferon, are undergoing study and show promise based on data from preliminary studies. Several immunomodulators have promise in inflammatory bowel disease, although the risk-benefit ratio and costs of therapy require evaluation. Nevertheless, the success of new biologics such as anti-TNFalpha agents augurs well for effective future therapies.

Abstract
Potassium (K+) ions are critical for the activation and catalytic cycle of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, resulting in the secretion of hydrochloric acid into the parietal cell canaliculus. As both symptom, severity and esophageal mucosal damage in gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) are related to the degree of acid exposure, K+ is a logical target for approaches to inhibit acid production. The probable K+ binding site on the gastric H+,K+-ATPase has recently been described and studies are elucidating how K+ activates the enzyme. K+ channels in the apical membrane of the parietal cell are implicated in the recycling of K+ and, to date, three potential K+ channels (KCNQ1, Kir2.1 and Kir4.1) have been identified. The channels represent theoretical sites for agents to control acid secretion but it will be difficult to develop selective blockers. An alternative strategy is to prevent K+ from activating gastric H+,K+-ATPase; the potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) class inhibits acid secretion by binding at or near the K+ binding site. Ongoing research is further defining the role of K+ in the functioning of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, as well as determining the clinical utility of agents directed toward this important cation.

Abstract
Understanding the physiology of gastric acid secretion and the pathophysiology of acid-related diseases (e.g. gastrooesophageal reflux and peptic ulcer) has led to the development of numerous ways to decrease acid exposure. Pharmacologically one can try to neutralize secreted acid by antacids, prevent stimulation of the parietal cell, improve mucosal defences and block the functioning of the proton pump. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) inhibit the final step of acid secretion, and are currently the most potent acid inhibitors. Major therapeutic improvement within the PPI class appears unlikely, as agents in this class share similar chemistry, mode of action, and pharmacokinetic profiles. New approaches that block acid secretion are now being developed. Gastrin (CCK2) receptor antagonists and potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) are in clinical development.
