Zuranolone (INNTooltip International Nonproprietary Name;[3] developmental code names SAGE-217, S-812217) is an investigational medication which is under development by SAGE Therapeutics for the treatment of depressive disorders and a variety of other indications.[4][5] It is a synthetic, orally active, inhibitory pregnane neurosteroid, and acts as a positive allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor.[4][5][6] The drug was developed as an improvement of brexanolone (allopregnanolone) with high oral bioavailability and a biological half-life suitable for once-daily administration.[5] Its half-life is around 16 to 23 hours, compared to approximately 9 hours for brexanolone.[1][2] As of March 2022, zuranolone is in phase III clinical trials for major depressive disorder, postpartum depression, and insomnia and is in phase II clinical studies for bipolar depression, essential tremor, and Parkinson's disease.[4] It is also in the preclinical stage of development for dyskinesias.[4]
