Synthetic organic
Comment: Naldemedine (S-297995) is a dual μ/δ opioid receptor antagonist, designed to act peripherally (peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist or PAMORA) [1]. It is used clinically for its ability to counteract opioid agonist-induced adverse effects such as constipation, nausea, and vomiting. Naldemedine was developed by Shionogi Inc. It is the compound claimed in patent WO2013172297 with formula IA (17-(cyclopropylmethyl)-6,7-didehydro-4,5α-epoxy-3,6,14-trihydroxy-N-[2-(3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)propan-2-yl]morphinan-7-carboxamide 4-methylbenzenesulfonic acid) [2].
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Summary of Clinical Use |
Naldemedine is delivered clinically as the tosylate salt (PubChem CID 56837137). The drug has completed Phase 3 clinical trials to evaluate its efficacy in treating opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in patients receiving opioid analgesics for chronic pain. Click here to link to all naldemedine trials registered at ClinicalTrials.gov. Positive outcomes from a Phase 3 trial (called the COMPOSE I trial) as part of the COMPOSE program translated to US FDA approval (in 2017) as a once-daily treatment for opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adult patients with chronic non-cancer pain. |
