Indacrinone  (Synonyms: MK-196; Indacrynic acid)

Sixteen mice are administered Indacrinone-14C. Four mice, 2 male and 2 female, are dosed orally with 10 mg/kg of drug and four additional mice (2M, 2F) are given the drug i.v. via the tail vein. In similar fashion eight additional mice are dosed with 1 mg/kg Indacrinone-14C either orally or intravenously.The animals are housed in separate metabolism cages, 2 mice of same sex per cage.The animals are fasted overnight prior to drug administration. Urine and feces are collected for the 24-hour period post drug. Animals are allowed free access to water. Urine specimens are also obtained from mice which receive Indacrinone orally at doses of 10 and 20 mg/kg/day for 9 days. On day 9 the mice are dosed and placed in metabolism cages; two cages are used per sex per group. Urine is collected during the five-hour period post last dose. A total of nineteen mice are dosed with 10 mg/kg and 18 mice are dosed with 20 mg/kg of drug^[1].
