GtoPdb Ligand ID: 10453

Synonyms: CR-4056 | US8633208, 1
Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: CR4056 is reported to bind imidazoline-binding sites known as imidazoline receptor I2 [2]. It was developed by Rottapharm Biotech and is being pursued as a novel analgesic for inflammatory and neuropathic pain [1,3-4]. Potential for efficacy in humans has been demonstrated in rodent models of nociceptive and neuropathic pain. To date (August 2019) clinical efficacy from a proof-of-concept study in patients with knee osteoarthritis pain has only been reported in meeting abstract form (see Rovati et al. Abstract Number: 1193, 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting). The associated trial registry number is EudraCT 2015-001136-37.
