Mipomersen (previously ISIS 301012, trade name Kynamro) is used to treat homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia and is administered by injection.

Indications

Kynamro is used to treat homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia and is administered by injection.[1][2]

It cannot be freely prescribed; instead every person put on mipomersen is enrolled in a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS) program approved by the FDA. It should not be used in people with liver disease.[1]

Mipomersen is pregnancy category B; women who are pregnant or intending to become pregnant should only use this drug if needed. It is unknown if it is secreted in human breast milk, but it was found to be secreted in the breast milk of rats.[1]

Adverse effects

The drug has a black box warning about the risk of liver damage; specifically it can cause elevations in the levels of transaminases and causes fatty liver disease.[1]

In clinical trials, 18% of subjects taking mipomersen stopped using the drug due to adverse effects; the most common adverse effects leading to discontinuation were injection site reactions, increases of transaminases, flu-like symptoms (fever, chills, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting), and abnormal liver tests.[1]

Other adverse effects include: heart problems including angina and palpitations, edema, pain in legs or arms, headache, insomnia, and hypertension.[1]

Chemical properties

The compound is a 'second-generation' antisense oligonucleotide; the nucleotides are linked with phosphorothioate linkages rather than the phosphodiester linkages of RNA and DNA, and the sugar parts are deoxyribose in the middle part of the molecule and 2'-O-methoxyethyl-modified ribose at the two ends. These modifications make the drug resistant to degradation by nucleases, allowing it to be administered weekly. The drug accumulates in the liver, which is convenient since apolipoprotein B predominantly acts there.

The complete sequence is

G*-C*-C*-U*-C*-dA-dG-dT-dC-dT-dG-dmC-dT-dT-dmC-G*-C*-A*-C*-C* [d = 2'-deoxy, * = 2'-O-(2-methoxyethyl)]

with 3'→5' phosphorothioate linkages.[3]

Phosphorothioate RNA.

History

The drug was discovered and developed to Phase 2 by ISIS Pharmaceuticals and subsequently licensed to Genzyme Corporation in 2008 by an auction bid. Isis earned an upfront payment of $325 million, with payments of a further $825 million if milestones are met.[4]

Mipomersen was rejected by the European Medicines Agency in 2012[5] and again in 2013 due to concerns about the liver and cardiovascular adverse effects.[6]

In January 2013, The United States Food and Drug Administration approved mipomersen for the treatment of homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.[7][8]
