Chemistry:Bocidelpar
Bocidelpar (INN, USAN; developmental code names ASP-0367, MA-0211, and MTB-1) is a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARδ) agonist which is or was under development for the treatment of mitochondrial myopathies, myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and metabolic disorders.[1][2][3][4][5] It is taken orally.[1][3]
The clinical pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of bocidelpar have been studied.[4][5]
Bocidelpar was originated by Mitobridge and is under development by Astellas Pharma and Mitobridge.[1][2][3] As of February 2026, bocidelpar is in phase 2/3 clinical trials for mitochondrial myopathies and phase 2 trials for ME/CFS, whereas no recent development has been reported for Duchenne muscular dystrophy or metabolic disorders.[1] However, other sources state that bocidelpar has been discontinued.[2][3] The drug was also under development for the treatment of hypoxia, but development for this indication was discontinued.[1] A phase 2 trial for mitochondrial myopathies was terminated due to lack of effectiveness.[1]
