Comment: ABX-002 is an orally delivered, potent CNS-directed thyroid hormone receptor beta (TRβ) agonist. Structurally ABX-002 is an amide prodrug (that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier) which is cleaved by fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) to the active metabolite ABX-002A [1]. It is proposed to promote the oligodendrocyte differentiating and myelinating/remyelinating activites of thyroid hormone in the brain, whilst minimising the peripherally-driven side effects of synthetic thyroid hormone, and was originally intended for the treatment of demyelinating neurodegenerative CNS disorders [1]. ABX-002 is more recently being investigated as a potentiator of serotoninergic (5-HT) antidepressants in the brains of patients with major depressive disorder.
