BAY 2925976
BAY 2925976 is a novel oral ARα2C antagonist developed by Bayer for the treatment of OSA (obstructive sleep apnea), a widespread condition affecting nearly one billion people globally. Despite the availability of mechanical treatments like CPAP, poor adherence rates highlight the need for more effective interventions. BAY 2925976 demonstrated a preclinical proof of concept for ARα₂C modulation as a potential therapeutic approach for OSA. In this article, we detail the discovery of BAY 2925976, as highlighted by Michael Hahn at the ACS Fall 2024 First-Time Disclosures session in Denver, CO.
compound 20
Context. “Compound 20” (Gedeon Richter) is an oral α5-GABA A receptor negative allosteric modulator (NAM) being developed for cognitive disorders . GABA receptor NAMs are known to exert effects opposite to the anxiolytic and anticonvulsant effects of positive allosteric modulators. However, NAM agents targeting α5-GABA A receptors, which have [...]
TAK-906
The Altos Therapeutics /Takeda D2/D3 receptor antagonist, TAK-906 , is a peripherally-restricted, non-BBB penetrant molecule, targeting the stomach and vomiting center in the area postrema to treat gastroparesis. Gastroparesis is a chronic condition characterized by delayed gastric emptying, resulting in nausea, vomiting, pain, and anorexia [...]
TAK-653
The Takeda AMPA-R potentiator, TAK-653 , is a glutamate-dependent potentiator that exhibits minimal agonism. AMPA-R agonism is associated with seizure risk and bell-shaped dose-response effects. As reviewer Jake Schwarz notes, companies including Cortex Pharmaceuticals (now RespireRx) and Lilly have been trying to develop AMPA modulators for [...]
NT-0796
NT-0796 is NodThera's pro-drug inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome. NT-0796 is currently in a Ph. Ib/IIa trial in obese individuals at risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. NT-0796 has the potential to reduce neuroinflammation in Parkinson’s disease. The NLRP3 inflammasome has emerged as a hot target due to its connection to Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, gout, and other diseases. Here is a detailed review of the role of NLRP3 inhibition in treating atherosclerosis, how NT-0796 was identified, and what makes it special, clinical development, and more.
