Granisetron hydrochloride is the second selective 5HT-3-antagonist approved for the
management of nausea and vomiting induced by cancer chemotherapy.Like
ondansetron, granisetron hydrochloride is superior to metoclopramide in both efficacy
and side effect profile. The compound appears to be effective both as a prophylactic
agent and in blocking vomiting once started. | [Originator]
SmithKline Beecham (United Kingdom) | [Manufacturing Process]
A solution of 1-(phenylmethyleneamino)isatin (1.354 g, 0.0054 mol) and
endo-3-amino-9-methyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (0.832 g, 0.0054 mol) in
dry THF (25 ml) under argon was heated to reflux for 5 hours. The solution
was cooled and evaporated and the residual traces of THF were azeotropically
removed with dichloromethane. The residue was triturated with ether to give
the intermediate 2-(benzylidenehydrazino)-α-oxophenyl-(9-methyl-9-
azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-yl)carboxamide as an orange powder (1.583 g, 73%).
Sodium hydride (50 mg, 60% dispersion in oil) was added to a solution of the
2-(benzylidenehydrazino)-α-oxophenyl-(9-methyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-yl)
carboxamide in dry THF (2.3 ml) under argon at -50°C. The resultant solution
was warmed to 0°C over 20 min then cooled to -30°C and treated with methyl
iodide (0.020 ml). The solution was allowed to warm to room temperature and
stirred for 24 hours then filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness, and
triturated with chloroform to give the 2-(N-methylbenzylidenehydrazo)-α-
oxophenyl-(9-methyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-yl)carboxamide as a light
coloured powder (50 mg, 38%). Further trituration of the mother liquor gave
a further crop, (37 mg, 28%, after recrystallisation from chloroform).
A solution of 2-(N-methylbenzylidenehydrazo)-α-oxophenyl-(9-methyl-9-
azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-yl)carboxamide (37 mg) in methanol (1 ml) was
treated with 2 N hydrochloric acid (0.1 ml) and left at room temperature for
several hours. Evaporation of the solvent gave the crude product as a brown
oil (36 mg). HPLC and MS analysis confirmed the structure and indicated a
quantitative yield of endo-N-(9-methyl-9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-yl)-1-
methylindazole-3-carboxamide (Ganisetron).
In practice it is usually used as hydrochloride. | [Brand name]

Serotonin antagonist | [General Description]
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards. | [Biological Activity]
5-HT 3 receptor antagonist that possesses potent antiemetic activity. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Granisetron hydrochloride is a serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist and antiemetic. | [Pharmacokinetics]
After intravenous injection of 20 or 40 μg/kg of this product in healthy subjects, the average peak plasma concentration was 13.7 and 42.8 μg/L, and the plasma elimination half-life was about 3.1-5.9 hours. Granisetron hydrochloride is widely distributed in the body, the serum protein binding rate is about 65%, and most of it is rapidly metabolized. The main metabolic pathway is N-dealkylation and aromatic epoxidation and then conjugated. It is excreted in feces and urine. | [Pharmacology]
Granisetron Hydrochloride is a highly selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist with good preventive and therapeutic effects on nausea and vomiting caused by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery. Factors such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery can cause enterochromaffin cells to release 5-HT, and 5-HT can activate 5-HT3 receptors in the central or vagus nerve and cause gag reflex. The mechanism of this product to control nausea and vomiting is to inhibit the occurrence of nausea and vomiting by antagonizing the 5-HT3 receptors in the central chemoreceptor area and peripheral vagus nerve endings. | [Veterinary Drugs and Treatments]
Granisetron is an alternative to other 5-HT3 receptor antagonists
(e.g., ondansetron or dolasetron) for the treatment of severe vomiting
or prophylaxis before administering antineoplastic drugs such
as cisplatin that can cause severe vomiting. | [storage]

| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Outline of Granisetron hydrochloride]
Granisetron hydrochloride was originally developed by the British Beecham company in the mid-1980s. At 1991, the merged Smithkline-Beecham (SB) Company had pushed for the first time of 3 mg of injection Kytri1 to the market in South Africa. To date, including 1 mg of oral tablets, 1mg of injections, granisetron hydrochloride has already entered into market in United States, Britain, France, Japan, Germany, Italy and other more than forty countries and regions around the world. When the Smithkline-Beecham (SB) Company was merged with Glaxo Company, it transferred this product to the Roche Company.
Foreign research data has shown that granisetron hydrochloride has a high selectivity to receptor. Its affinity to 5-HT3 receptor is 4000 to 10000 time as high as its affinity to other receptors, such as 5-HT1, 5-HT2, dopamine D1, D1, histamine H1, benzodiazepine and opioid receptor. For comparison, the difference for ondansetron is only about 1,000 times. For the test of its prevention of cisplatin-induced emesis in ferrets, the antiemetic rates in the three dose groups of granisetron hydrochloride 2 × 0.005,2 × 0.05 and 2 × 0.5mg/kg (iv) were 93%, 96% and 100 %, respectively while for ondansetron in 2 × 2.5mg/kg, this value was 89%, demonstrating that granisetron hydrochloride exhibited a at least five times stronger efficacy of anti-emetic than ondansetron. Toxicity studies suggest that granisetron hydrochloride can achieve very excellent antiemetic effect even in small dose with only minor side effects. However, there may be sth abnormal occurring in cardiovascular system upon large doses. Since the recommended clinical dose of granisetron hydrochloride is small (3mg/d), which is only 1/25 (<1 mg/kg) of the lowest dose used in animal studies, therefore, clinical application of it is very safe. Pharmacokinetic study has shown that granisetron hydrochloride has a half-life (t1/2) of 9 h in the body of patient while this value is 4 h at healthy people, 7.7 h in elderly people and 4.9h in young people.
Granisetron hydrochloride is mainly metabolized in the liver and can be excreted through the feces and urine in the form of 7-hydroxy granisetron hydrochloride and other forms of metabolic product. For patients of liver damage or liver metastases, they have reduced plasma clearance rate with the scavenging rate upon renal insufficiency being 1/4 of the normal case. It has been observed of high first pass metabolism upon oral administration with the absolute bioavailability being 60%.
| [Domestic Market Analysis]
1993, China has approved of the import of the Kytri1 injection (3 mg/ 3 mL) of British SB company, Registration No: X930279, and has allowed for in clinical trials. In 1994, the China-US Tianjin Smith Kline Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. had used imported raw materials processing method for production of the injection of the 3mg granisetron hydrochloride and had obtained the approval of the Ministry of Health: (94) health medicine approved: J-10 number (fourth class) with the trade name being "Kay Reiter. " Currently there are a number of domestic manufacturers having their products enter into market with the number of manufacture which makes formulation being up to dozen, see Annex I for details.
China has a large population with the annual number of newly identified cancer patients being more than 1.6 million. The nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy and radiotherapy-induced have been one of the serious side effects that doctors and patients worry of. Therefore, new antiemetics are in urgent demand. Currently, ondansetron class of drugs has occupied most of the market antiemetic including ondansetron (ShufuLing), granisetron hydrochloride (Kytril) and tropisetron (Oubiting), wherein the ondansetron and granisetron has been accumulated of large number of clinical application experience with good response from the doctors and has played positive role on improving the domestic situation of the treatment of chemotherapy vomiting. With the localization of products, the decreasing price and the increasing income level of people, antiemetics market will be certainly greatly improved. In this case, granisetron hydrochloride, as the secondary antiemetic drug entering into market, will certainly have good market prospects.
