Physical & Chemical Properties

Physical description & handling notes

• Talniflumate is metabolized to its prodrug, niflumic acid, which has several pharmacodynamic effects. Firstly, it blocks synthesis of mucin. Secondly, talniflumate blocks prostaglandin synthesis by cyclooxygenases, which aids in pain and inflammation management.

Documented Uses

• Talnifumate is a phthalidyl ester of nifumic acid, which has potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects and is widely used to treat inflammatory disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, and has also been studied for the management of cystic fibrosis.
• In 12 subjects after a single oral administration, total plasma clearance of the main metabolite, niflumic acid, averaged 45 ml/min giving a distribution volume of 0.12 l/kg on average.
• This drug undergoes extensive first pass effect.
• Niflumic acid, the active form of Talniflumate, is weak acid that is strongly bound to plasma proteins. Bioavailability was 100% in a study of 12 volunteers. It is a weak acid, strongly bound to plasma proteins.
• Approximately 2h in 12 subjects
• Talniflumate is a strong and selective inhibitor of core mucin-synthesizing enzyme GCNT3 (core 2 b-1,6 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase). Talniflumate decreases gene expression of GCNT3 and production of mucins in vivo and in vitro. Talniflumate improves response of pancreatic tumors to gefitinib (chemotherapy drug). Talniflumate is a strong calcium-activated chloride channel (CaCC) blocker.
