Synonyms: Example 1 [US20090137530] | MT-1303 | MT1303
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: Amiselimod (MT-1303) is claimed in patent US20090137530 (Compound 1-3 is the hydrochloride used experimentally) as a potential immunomodulatory agent [1]. It is a sphingosine-1-phosphate (SIP) receptor prodrug agonist, similar in action to the approved MS drug fingolimod, but with improved receptor subtype selectivity [3].
Selective SIP1 receptor agonists are being investigated for immunomodulatory/immunosuppresant action in MS and other autoimmune conditions [2]. |
