dapansutrile
Immuno Disease Comments: Phase 1 clinical candidate for Schnitzler syndrome- see NCT03595371.
Clinical Use: Clinical trials using dapansutrile (OLT1177) in acute and chronic inflammatory conditions were initiated, to evaluate both topical and oral efficacy [2,4]. The only active study listed on ClinicalTrials.org in Feb. 2024 was in participants with gouty arthritis. There are also plans to assess dapansutrile to tackle neuroinflammatory pathology in Parkinson's disease [3] based on evidence from preclinical animal models [1].

SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: Dapansutrile's anti-inflammatory potential (via oral administration) was planned to be investigated in COVID-19 patients with moderate symptoms, but that clinical trial (NCT04540120) was terminated in response to the successful deployment of anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. | View clinical data
