To reduce the volume of new heterotopic ossification in adults and pediatric patients (aged 8 years and older for females and 10 years and older for males) with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva
- RG-667
- RO-3300074
Palovarotene, sold under the brand name Sohonos, is a medication used for the treatment of heterotopic ossification and fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.[4][5] It is a highly selective retinoic acid receptor gamma (RARγ) agonist.[6]
It was approved for medical use in Canada in June 2022,[4] and in the United States in August 2023.[5]
Medical uses
Palovarotene is indicated for the treatment of heterotopic ossification and fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.[4][5]
History
Palovarotene is a retinoic acid receptor gamma (RARγ) agonist licensed to Clementia Pharmaceuticals from Roche Pharmaceuticals. At Roche, palovarotene was evaluated in more than 800 individuals including healthy volunteers and patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).[7] A one-year trial did not demonstrate a significant benefit on lung density in moderate-to-severe emphysema secondary to severe α(1)-antitrypsin deficiency.[8]
In 2011, animal studies demonstrated that RARγ agonists, including palovarotene, blocked new bone formation in both an injury-induced mouse model of heterotopic ossification (HO) and a genetically modified biological mouse model of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva containing a continuously active ACVR1/ALK2 receptor in a dose-dependent manner.[9][10] A 2016 study demonstrated that palovarotene also inhibited spontaneous heterotopic ossification, maintained limb mobility and functioning, and restored skeletal growth in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva mouse models.[11]
Society and culture
Legal status
Palovarotene is being developed by Ipsen Biopharmaceuticals and was granted priority review and orphan drug designations by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva[12][13] and orphan medicinal product designation by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in 2014.[14][15][16][17] Phase II clinical studies failed to show a significant change in heterotopic bone volume, the main outcome measure, but prompted further investigation in a phase III clinical trial.[18] In December 2022, the FDA declined to approve palovarotene for the fibrodysplasia ossificans progressive without additional clinical trial data.[19] In January 2023, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended the refusal of the marketing authorization for palovarotene for the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.[20]
Research
Phase II
Clementia submitted a new drug application for palovarotene for the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva after observing positive phase II results.[21]
Phase III
In December 2019, Ipsen issued a partial clinical hold for people under the age of 14, due to reports of early fusion of growth plates.[22] Ipsen acquired Clementia in 2019.[23]

XAMPLE 12: PREPARATION OF 4-r(E)-2-(5,5.8.8-TETRAMETHYL-3-PYRAZOL-l-YLMETHYL -5.6.7.8-TETRAHYDRO-NAPHTHALEN-2-YL VINYLl BENZOIC ACID (6)
A mixture of 2.0 g (4.5 mmol) of (E)- methyl-4-[2-(3-bromomethyl-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoate and 0.65 g (9.5 mmol) of pyrazole in 15 mL of N-methyl pyrrolidine was heated at 100°. After 2 hours, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, poured into brine and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was stirred with hexane and the product was filtered off, washed with hexane and dried to give 1.6 g (83%) of methyl-4-[2-(5,5,8,8-Tetramethyl-3-pyrazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoate (M+ = 429).
A mixture of 27.6 g (64.4 mmol) of methyl-4-[2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-3-pyrazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoate and 97 mL (193 mmol) of 2 N sodium hydroxide in 300 mL of ethyl alcohol was heated at reflux. After 1 hour, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and diluted with 900 mL of water. The reaction mixture was acidified with 2 N HCl and the product was isolated by filtration, washed with water and pentane and dried to give 25.9 g (97%) of 4-[(E)-2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-3-pyrazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid (m.p. = 246.5-248 °C) 6.
Proceeding as described in the example above but substituting pyrazole with pyrrole, 4-methylpyrazole, 1,2,4-triazole, moφholine, 2-pyrrohdone, 3,5-dimethylpyrzole,
δ – valerolactone, 2-methyhmidazole and 4-methylimidzole gave 4-[(E)-2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-3-pyrrol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 7, 4-{(E)-2-[5,5,8,8-Tetramemyl-3-(4-methylpyrazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 20, 4-[(E)-2-(5,5,8,8-Tetxamethyl-3-[l,2,4]triazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8Jetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl]vinyl}benzoic acid 39, 4-[(E)-2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-3-moφhohn-4-ylmethyl- 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 138, 4-[(E)-2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-3- (2-oxo-pyrrohdin-l-yl-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 139, 4-{(E)-2-[5,5,8,8-Tetramet yl-3-(3,5-mmemylpyτazol-l-yhnethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-napn^ 2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 143, 4-[(E)-2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-3-(2-oxo-piperidin-l-yl-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naρhthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 146 4-{(E)-2-[5,5,8,8-Tetramethyl-3-(2-methyhmidazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 149and 4-{(E)-2-[5,5,8,8-Tetramethyl-3-(4-methyhmidazol-l-ylmethyl-5,6,7,8-tettahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)vinyl]benzoic acid 150 respectively.
