Introduction: Varenicline, a partial agonist of the a4b2 nicotinic receptor, is a first-in-classdrug launched by Pfizer as an aid to smoking cessation treatment.Varenicline exhibits dual action by decreasing craving and withdrawal symptoms,and by decreasing the reinforcement associated with smoking. The addictiveproperties of nicotine are thought to be mediated in part through its action as an agonist at α4β2 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). Activationof α4β2 receptors by nicotine increases the release of dopamine in themesolimbic system, an effect that is shared by most drugs of abuse. As nicotinelevels decrease, dopamine levels decline, which in turn stimulates the urge tosmoke. Additionally, a reduced dopaminergic tone due to abstinence fromsmoking stimulates craving and the withdrawal syndrome. A partial agonist ofα4β2 receptors such as varenicline is expected to elicit a moderate and sustainedincrease in dopamine levels to relieve craving and withdrawal symptoms. Inaddition, by competitively binding to a4b2 receptors and inhibiting nicotineinduceddopaminergic activation, a partial agonist could attenuate the pharmacologicreward associated with smoking.

2.6 Toxicity Summary
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Varenicline; is used as an adjunct in the cessation of cigarette smoking. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Safety and efficacy of varenicline; as an adjunct for smoking cessation have been established in 6 placebo-controlled or active-comparator studies in 3659 patients (mean age: 43 years; 79-96% white; mean smoking history: about 25 years) who smoked at least 10 cigarettes daily (mean: about 21 cigarettes daily). Safety and efficacy of varenicline; also have been evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 703 patients with stable, documented cardiovascular disease (other than hypertension) who smoked at least 10 cigarettes daily; patients receiving varenicline; and placebo were comparable in baseline characteristics, including age (mean age 57 and 55.9 years, respectively), race (80.3 and 80.8% white, respectively), gender (75.2 and 82.2% male, respectively), and mean smoking history (40 and 39 years, and 22.1 and 22.9 cigarettes daily, respectively). Safety and efficacy of varenicline; also have been evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 460 patients (mean age 57 years, 82-84% white, approximately 62% male, mean smoking history of approximately 40 years) with mild to moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (postbronchodilator FEV1/FVC below 70% and FEV1 at least 50% of predicted normal value) who smoked at least 10 cigarettes daily. Serious neuropsychiatric symptoms, including changes in mood (e.g., depression, mania), psychosis, hallucinations, paranoia, delusions, homicidal ideation, hostility, agitation, aggression, anxiety, panic, and suicidality (e.g., suicidal ideation, attempted and completed suicides), have been reported during postmarketing experience in patients receiving varenicline;. Hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema, have been reported during postmarketing experience in patients receiving varenicline;. Safety and efficacy of varenicline; have not been established in patients younger than 18 years of age and use of the drug in this age group is not recommended. Varenicline; was not genotoxic, with or without metabolic activation in vitro in human lymphocytes. ANIMAL STUDIES: Varenicline; is distributed into milk in animals. Rats were administered varenicline; (1, 5, and 15 mg/kg/day) by oral gavage for 2 years. In male rats (n = 65 per sex per dose group), incidences of hibernoma (tumor of the brown fat) were increased at the mid dose (1 tumor, 5 mg/kg/day, 23 times the maximum recommended human daily exposure based on AUC) and maximum dose (2 tumors, 15 mg/kg/day, 67 times the maximum recommended human daily exposure based on AUC). There was no evidence of carcinogenicity in female rats. Varenicline; succinate; has been shown to have an adverse effect on the fetus in animal reproduction studies. Administration of varenicline; succinate; to pregnant rabbits resulted in reduced fetal weights at an oral dose of 30 mg/kg/day (50 times the human AUC); this reduction was not evident following treatment with 10 mg/kg/day (23 times the maximum recommended daily human exposure based on AUC). In addition, in the offspring of pregnant rats treated with varenicline; succinate; there were decreases in fertility and increases in auditory startle response at an oral dose of 15 mg/kg/day (36 times the maximum recommended human daily exposure based on AUC). Varenicline; succinate; was not teratogenic in rats and rabbits at oral doses up to 15 and 30 mg/kg/day, respectively (36 and 50 times the maximum recommended human daily exposure based on AUC, respectively). Varenicline; was not genotoxic, with or without metabolic activation, in the following assays: Ames bacterial mutation assay; mammalian CHO/HGPRT assay; and tests for cytogenetic aberrations in vivo in rat bone marrow.

9.6 Chemical Synthesis
Several modifications to the original synthesis have been reported in the literature, including an improved process scale synthesis of the last few steps.The Grignard reaction was initiated on a small scale by addition of 2-bromo fluorobenzene 113 to a slurry of Magnesium turnings and catalytic 1,2-dibromoethane in THF and heating the mixture until refluxing in maintained. To this refluxing mixture was added a mixture of the 2-bromo fluorobenzene 113 and cyclopentadiene 114 over a period of 1.5 h. After complete addition, the reaction was allowed to reflux for additional 1.5 h to give the Diels- Alder product 115 in 64% yield. Dihydroxylation of the olefin 115 by reacting with catalytic osmium tetraoxide in the presence of N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) in acetone: water mixture at room temperature provided the diol 116 in 89% yield. Oxidative cleavage of diol 116 with sodium periodate in biphasic mixture of water: DCE at 10oC provided di-aldehyde 117 which was immediately reacted with benzyl amine in the presence of sodium acetoxyborohydride to give benzyl amine 118 in 85.7% yield. The removal of the benzyl group was effected by hydrogenation of the HCl salt in 40-50 psi hydrogen pressure with 20% Pd(OH)2 in methanol to give amine hydrochloride 119 in 88% yield. Treatment of amine 119 with trifluoroacetic anhydride and pyridine in dichloromethane at 0oC gave trifluoroacetamide 120 in 94% yield. Dinitro compound 121 was prepared by addition of trifluoroacetamide 120 to a mixture of trifluoromethane sulfonic acid and nitric acid, which was premixed, in dichloromethane at 0oC. Reduction of the dinitro compound 121 by hydrogenation at 40-50 psi hydrogen in the presence of catalytic 5%Pd/C in isopropanol:water mixture provided the diamine intermediate 122 which was quickly reacted with glyoxal in water at room temperature for 18h to give compound 123 in 85% overall yield. The trifluoroacetamide 123 was then hydrolyzed with 2 M sodium hydroxide in toluene at 37-40oC for 2-3h followed by preparation of tartrate salt in methanol to furnish varenicline tartrate (XV).
