SAGE-217 is an investigational medication which is under development by SAGE Therapeutics for the treatment of major depressive disorder, postpartum depression, essential tremor, Parkinson's disease, insomnia, and seizures.[1][2] It is a synthetic, orally active, inhibitory pregnane neurosteroid, and acts as a positive allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor.[1][2][3] The drug was developed as an improvement of allopregnanolone (brexanolone) with high oral bioavailability and a biological half-life suitable for once-daily administration.[2] As of February 2018, SAGE-217 is in phase II clinical trials for major depressive disorder, postpartum depression, essential tremor, and Parkinson's disease and is in phase I clinical studies for insomnia and seizures.[1] It is also in the preclinical stage of development for dyskinesias.[1]
