DMP 811 exhibited high binding affinity for the angiotensin II subtype receptor AT1 in rat adrenal tissues with an IC50 of 6 nM, but not for the subtype receptor AT2. In the isolated rabbit aorta, DMP 811 inhibited the contractile response to angiotensin II selectively and noncompetitively with a KB value of 0.1 nM. In conscious renal hypertensive rats, DMP 811 decreased blood pressure with i.v. and p.o. ED30s of 0.005 and 0.03 mg/kg, respectively (p.o. ED30 for losartan = 0.59 mg/kg). In conscious furosemide-treated dogs, DMP 811 given either at 0.3 or 1 mg/kg p.o. decreased blood pressure. DMP 811 has oral bioavailabilities of 7 and 29% in rats and dogs, respectively, after a solution dose and 8 and 13%, respectively, after a suspension or capsule dosing. Our study indicates that DMP 811 is a selective and insurmountable AT1 receptor antagonist and is a 20-fold more potent orally-active antihypertensive agent than losartan.
