COX

Cyclooxygenase

Cyclooxygenase (COX), officially known as prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), is an enzyme that is responsible for formation of important biological mediators called prostanoids, including prostaglandins, prostacyclin and thromboxane. Pharmacological inhibition of COX can provide relief from the symptoms of inflammation and pain. Drugs, like Aspirin, that inhibit cyclooxygenase activity have been available to the public for about 100 years. Two cyclooxygenase isoforms have been identified and are referred to as COX-1 and COX-2. Under many circumstances the COX-1 enzyme is produced constitutively (i.e., gastric mucosa) whereas COX-2 is inducible (i.e., sites of inflammation). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), such as aspirin and ibuprofen, exert their effects through inhibition of COX. The main COX inhibitors are the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

    SC-75416
    Inhibitor
    SC-75416 is a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor. Its pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model was used for development and clinical trial simulation to design a study protocol to verify its analgesic effect in a post-oral surgery pain model. The simulation results showed that 360 mg of SC-75416 may provide better pain relief than 400 mg of ibuprofen. The actual clinical trial results confirmed this hypothesis, and 360 mg of SC-75416 was indeed superior to 400 mg of ibuprofen in pain relief. The PK/PD model of SC-75416 showed good predictive performance and successfully predicted its clinical effect. These research results show that SC-75416, as a new selective COX-2 inhibitor, has potential clinical application value in the management of post-oral surgery pain.
