Pharmacokinetics and Tissue Distribution of Nasal Spray of a Novel Muscarinic Receptor Blocker, 101BHG-D01, in Dogs and Rats

Background: 101BHG-D01 is a novel selective anti-muscarinic (M) 3 receptor-blocking drug. 101BHGD01 nasal spray is intended to be used to relieve sneezing and runny nose symptoms caused by allergic rhinitis.

Methods: In this study, we examined the plasma pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution, and major excretion mode of 101BHG-D01 in Beagle dogs and rats following nasal spray and intranasal administration, respectively, using HPLCMS/ MS.

Results/discussion: We found that the pharmacokinetics of 101BHG-D01 was linear in dogs. 101BHG-D01 entered the bloodstream rapidly following nasal spray. Its plasma half-life was approximately 6 h and resided at least 24 h in the body. Moreover, 101BHG-D01 retained a significant amount in the nasal cavity. Finally, we found that 101BHGD01 was eliminated mainly in the form of stools in rats.

Conclusion: In conclusion, we provided pertinent reference information regarding the design and optimization of drug delivery regimens for clinical trials.
