Chemistry:AZD-3783

From HandWiki

AZD-3783 is a serotonin 5-HT1B receptor antagonist which was under development for the treatment of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders.[1][2][3][4][5] It was being developed by AstraZeneca.[1][2] The drug reached phase 1 clinical trials prior to the discontinuation of its development.[1][2] It was discontinued following unexpected neurotoxicity findings in animals.[6]

"Given the inhibitory effect of 5-HT1B receptors on serotonin release and the predominantly prevailing serotonin hypothesis of MDD, it makes sense to block 5-HT1B receptors for antidepressant effect (Slassi 2002). Thus far, most 5-HT1B receptor drug candidates for MDD treatment have been antagonists, such as SB-616234-A (Dawson et al. 2006), AZD3783 (Zhang et al. 2011), and AR-A000002 (Hudzik et al. 2003). It has been proposed that 5-HT1 receptor activation counteracts the serotonin-enhancing effects of SSRI and thereby contribute to the latency of therapeutic effect (Blier and de Montigny 1994; Nutt 2002). SSRI-induced downregulation of 5-HT1 receptors would then restore the serotonin-elevating effects of the drugs and hence enable a clinical effect, providing a rationale for blocking 5-HT1B receptors for rapid antidepressant response.".
