Ishibashi, Kenji published the artcileOccupancy of adenosine A2A receptors by istradefylline in patients with Parkinson’s disease using 11C-preladenant PET, Product Details of C25H29N9O3, the publication is Neuropharmacology (2018), 106-112, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
The present study aimed to calculate occupancy rates of A2ARs by administrating istradefylline 20 mg or 40 mg, which is the currently approved dose for PD in Japan. Addnl., A2AR availability was compared between patients with PD and healthy controls. Ten patients with PD under levodopa therapy and six age-matched healthy controls were included. The patients underwent a total of two 11C-preladenant positron emission tomog. scans before and after the administration of istradefylline 20 mg or 40 mg (both n = 5). Binding potential (BPND) was calculated to estimate A2AR availability in the ventral striatum, caudate, and putamen. Maximal A2AR occupancy and ED50 were estimated by modeling the dose-occupancy curves. All patients were around the middle stage of PD, and their characteristics were clin. heterogeneous. Maximal A2AR occupancy and ED50 were 93.5% and 28.6 mg in the ventral striatum, 69.5% and 10.8 mg in the caudate, and 66.8% and 14.8 mg in the putamen, resp. There were no significant differences in BPND values in the ventral striatum (P = 0.42), caudate (P = 0.72), and putamen (P = 0.43) between the PD and control groups. In conclusion, the present study shows that istradefylline binds to A2ARs dose-dependently. A sufficient occupancy of A2ARs could be obtained by administrating the approved dose of istradefylline.
