GtoPdb Ligand ID: 8707

Synonyms: Austedo® | SD-809 | SD809 | tetrabenazine D6
Approved drug
deutetrabenazine is an approved drug (FDA (2017))
Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: This is an orally available, deuterated analogue of tetrabenazine which can be administered in lower doses and in a simplified dosing regimen. Deutetrabenazine is the first ever deuterated drug to be approved.

In drug discovery, replacing hydrogen atoms in drug compounds with deuterium (deuteration) is a technique employed to inhibit degradation of the drug and its active metabolites. The presence of the deuterium atoms attenuates CYP2D6-driven metabolic breakdown of the compound. This effects an increase in circulating half-lives and improves the duration of therapeutic effect and decreases the dose required to achieve therapeutic concentration [4].

2D Structure

An image of the ligand's 2D structure. For small molecules with SMILES these are drawn using the NCI/CADD Chemical Identifier Resolver. Click on the image to access the chemical structure search tool with the ligand pre-loaded in the structure editor. For other types of ligands, e.g. longer nucleotides and peptides, a manually drawn representation of the molecule may be provided.

Physico-chemical Properties

Calculated molecular properties are available for small molecules and natural products (not peptides). Properties were generated using the Chemistry Development Kit (CDK) (Willighagen EL et al. Journal of Cheminformatics vol. 9:33. 2017, doi:10.1186/s13321-017-0220-4; https://cdk.github.io/). All properties were selected to enable the prediction of the Lipinski Rule-of-Five profile or ‘druglikeness’ for each ligand. For more info on each category see the help pages.

SMILES / InChI / InChIKey

SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) A specification for unambiguously describing the structure of chemical molecules using short ASCII strings. Canonical SMILES specify a unique representation of the 2D structure without chiral or isotopic specifications. Isomeric SMILES include chiral specification and isotopes.

Standard InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey InChI is a non-proprietary, standard, textual identifier for chemical substances designed to facilitate linking of information and database searching. An InChIKey is a simplified version of a full InChI, designed for easier web searching.

Bioactivity Comments
The inhibitory ability of deutetrabenazine is likely to be similar to that of its parent compound, tetrabenazine. We have mapped deutetrabenazine to SLC18A2, based on its relationship to the parent molecule, but have been unable to find confirmatory activity data.
