Pharmacokinetics Mean (±SD) Plasma Pharmacokinetic Parameters for Maropitant in Beagle Dogs after single dose and repeat oral doses of Maropitant: PK Parameter 2 mg/kg Single Dose 2 mg/kg repeat Doses1 8 mg/kg Single Dose 8 mg/kg repeat Doses1 Tmax 2 (hr) 2.0 (1.5 – 3.0) 1.5 (1.0 – 3.0) 1.5 (1.0 – 3.0) 2.5 (1.5 – 7.0) Cmax (ng/mL) 154 (111) 304 (165) 588 (416) 1409 (516) AUC(0-24) (ng*hr/mL) 1440 (982) 3890 (3030) 6730 (5030) 26600 (9200) T1/2 2 (hr) NC 7.69 (6.21 - 17.8) NC 25.4 (6.06 - 30.0) Accumulation Ratio (Rac)3 NA 2.46 (1.68, 3.61) NA 4.81 (3.28, 7.05) 1Following once daily doses of maropitant for 14 days. 2Median (Range) 3Ratio=Multiple Dose AUC(0-24)/Single Dose AUC(0-24), Least square means (95% Confidence Interval) NA= Not Applicable NC= Not Calculated Following oral administration, median time to reach Cmax was within 2.5 hr. The absolute bioavailability of maropitant was low (24%) following oral administration of 2 mg/kg maropitant. After an oral dose, prandial status does not significantly affect the extent of oral bioavailability. Greater than dose-proportional drug exposure can be expected with an increase in dose (1-16 mg/kg PO). However as doses increase (20-50 mg/kg PO), the dose proportionality is re-established. Based upon in vitro enzyme kinetics, involvement of a high capacity enzyme (CYP3A12) may contribute to this return to dose linearity. Due to dose dependent pharmacokinetics, the maropitant concentrations reached steady state approximately after 4 and 8 days following 2 and 8 mg/kg, respectively. The observed drug accumulation ratios were 2.46 and 4.81, after oral administration of 2 and 8 mg/kg, respectively. The exposure of 10 week old puppies to maropitant was lower than that observed in adult dogs, particularly after repeat doses of 1 or 2 mg/kg. Systemic clearance of maropitant following IV administration was 970, 995, and 533 mL/hr/kg at doses of 1, 2 and 8 mg/kg, respectively. Urinary recovery of maropitant and its major metabolite was minimal (<1% each). The hepatic metabolism of maropitant involves two cytochrome P-450 isoenzymes: CYP2D15 and CYP3A12. In in vitro enzyme kinetics data suggest that the non-linear kinetics may be partially associated with saturation of the low capacity enzyme (CYP2D15). Plasma protein binding of maropitant was high (99.5%). Pharmacodynamics Vomiting is a complex process coordinated centrally by the emetic center which consists of several brainstem nuclei (area postrema, nucleus tractus solitarius, dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus) that receive and integrate sensory stimuli from central and peripheral sources and chemical stimuli from the circulation and the cerebro-spinal fluid. Maropitant is a neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist which acts by inhibiting the binding of substance P, a neuropeptide of the tachykinin family. Substance P is found in significant concentrations in the nuclei comprising the emetic center and is considered the key neurotransmitter involved in emesis.1By inhibiting the binding of substance P within the emetic center, maropitant provides broad-spectrum effectiveness against neural (central) and humoral (peripheral) causes of vomiting. In vivo model studies in dogs have shown that maropitant has antiemetic effectiveness against both central and peripheral emetogens including apomorphine, and syrup of ipecac. 1Diemunsch P, Grelot L. Potential of substance P antagonists as antiemetics. [Review] [60 refs]. Drugs. 2000;60:533-46. EFFECTIVENESS Prevention of Acute Vomiting In laboratory model studies, maropitant citrate tablets dosed at a minimum of 2 mg/kg BW reduced the number of emetic events associated with established neural (central) and humoral (peripheral) stimuli. Following administration of apomorphine (central emetic stimuli), vomiting was observed in 33% (4 of 12) of Beagle dogs treated with maropitant citrate tablets and 100% (12 of 12) of Beagle dogs treated with placebo tablets. Following administration of syrup of ipecac (peripheral emetic stimuli) vomiting was observed in 33% (4 of 12) of Beagle dogs treated with maropitant citrate tablets and in 83% (10 of 12) of Beagle dogs treated with placebo tablets. In a study of 275 canine patients presented to veterinary hospitals with a history of acute vomiting, dogs were initially administered maropitant citrate injectable solution or placebo on Day 0. Following the initial dose, dogs allocated to the maropitant citrate group were treated with either maropitant citrate tablets at a minimum of 2 mg/kg orally or injectable solution at 1 mg/kg subcutaneously once daily at the discretion of the clinician. Dogs allocated to the placebo group were treated using either an injectable placebo solution or placebo tablets once daily at the discretion of the clinician. Of the 199 dogs included in the analysis for effectiveness, 27 of 54 dogs (50%) in the placebo group displayed vomiting at some time during the study and 31 of 145 dogs (21.4%) in the treated group displayed vomiting during the study period.

Their vomiting status was unknown. 143 was used in the denominator for % vomited. In US field studies in veterinary patients, maropitant citrate tablets and injectable solution were well tolerated in dogs presenting with various conditions including parvovirus, gastroenteritis, and renal disease. There were no notable differences in mean laboratory values between maropitant citrate -treated and placebo-treated patients. Maropitant citrate tablets were used safely in dogs receiving other frequently used veterinary products such as fluid and electrolyte replacement solutions, antimicrobial agents, vaccines, antacids, and antiparasitic agents. Prevention of Vomiting due to Motion Sickness In a study of canine veterinary patients taken on a one-hour car journey and treated with either maropitant citrate tablets at a minimum dose of 8 mg/kg BW or placebo tablets 2 hours prior to the journey, 67 of 122 (55%) of dogs vomited during the journey when treated with placebo while 8 of 122 (7%) vomited during the journey after treatment with maropitant citrate tablets. The probability that a dog in this study, prone to motion sickness would NOT vomit during a journey if treated with maropitant citrate tablets was 93%, while the probability was 48% if treated with placebo.
