Calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor antagonist

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Gepant)

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonists are a class of drugs that act as antagonists of the calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor (CGRPR).[1]

Several monoclonal antibodies that bind to the CGRP receptor or peptide have been approved for prevention of migraine.[2] Nerve activation triggers the release of CGRP and other neuropeptides, leading to inflammation, pain, and swelling. Three small molecule CGRPR antagonists are approved in the U.S. as antimigraine agents.[3][4][5] Drugs of this class have also been investigated for use in osteoarthritis.[6]

Examples

[edit]

Non-peptide small molecules

[edit]
  • Ubrogepant is approved for acute treatment of migraines[7][4]
  • Rimegepant (BMS-927711) is approved for acute and preventative treatment of migraines[8][3]
  • Atogepant (AGN-241689) is approved for preventative treatment of migraines[5]
  • Zavegepant (BHV- 3500) is a nasal spray approved for acute treatment of migraines.[9][10]
  • Telcagepant (MK-0974), reached phase III clinical trials; development discontinued in 2011.[11]
  • Olcegepant (BIBN-4096BS) is a drug candidate[12]
  • BI 44370 TA (BI 44370)[13]
  • MK-3207[14]
  • SB-268262

Monoclonal antibodies targeting the CGRP receptor

[edit]
  • Erenumab (AMG-334) is approved for prevention of migraine.[15]

Monoclonal antibodies targeting the CGRP molecule

[edit]

Necrotizing fasciitis

[edit]

A study has found botox effective against necrotizing fasciitis caused by S. pyogenes in mice.[20] Its mechanism of action is by blocking CGRP receptor of nerve cells, which trigger intense pain and activate CGRP cascade, which prevents the immune system attacks to control the pathogen.[21] Botox blocks the CGRP cascade of nerve cells.[22]

Migraine

[edit]

As of 2018, erenumab, brand name Aimovig, was approved in the U.S. for use for migraines. It interacts by blocking the CGRP receptor.[23] As of 2018, fremanezumab, brand name Ajovy, was approved in the U.S. for use for migraines. It interacts with the CGRP protein expressed during an attack.[24] The third approved treatment, as of 2018, galcanezumab, brand name Emgality, was approved in the U.S. for use in migraines. It also interacts with the protein.[25]

As of February 2020, eptinezumab (Vyepti) was approved by the FDA for the treatment of migraine via intravenous infusion as well.[26]

Three small-molecule antagonists have been approved for treatment of migraine: ubrogepant, rimegepant, and atogepant.[4][3][5] Ubrogepant and rimegepant are approved for acute treatment.[4][3] Atogepant and rimegepant are approved for preventative treatment.[5][3]
