Aprepitant

Off-White to Light Yellow Cyrstalline SolidAprepitant is an antiemetic chemical compound that belongs to “substance P” antagonists (SPA) with its effect being blocking the neurokinin 1(Nk1) receptor. It is used for the prevention of acute and delayedchemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting(CINV) and for prevention ofpostoperative nausea and vomiting. It can also be used for the treatment of cyclic vomiting syndrome and late-stage chemotherapy induced vomiting occurring during cancer treatment.

Aprepitant is a morpholine-based antiemetic, which is or the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. Aprepitant is a selective high-affinity antagonist of human substance P/neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptors. It has a role as an antidepressant, an antiemetic, a peripheral nervous system drug, a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist and a substance P receptor antagonist. It is a member of triazoles, a member of morpholines, a cyclic acetal and a member of (trifluoromethyl)benzenes.|Aprepitant, an antiemetic, is a substance P/neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptor antagonist which, in combination with other antiemetic agents, is indicated for the prevention of acute and delayed nausea and vomiting associated with initial and repeat courses of highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. Aprepitant is a selective high-affinity antagonist of human substance P/neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptors. Aprepitant has little or no affinity for serotonin (5-HT3), dopamine, and corticosteroid receptors, the targets of existing therapies for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CI NV).|Aprepitant is a Substance P/Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonist. The mechanism of action of aprepitant is as a Neurokinin 1 Antagonist, and Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inhibitor, and Cytochrome P450 2C9 Inducer, and Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inducer.|Aprepitant is an orally available antiemetic agent that is used to prevent postoperative or cancer chemotherapy related nausea and vomiting. Aprepitant is associated with a low rate of serum enzyme elevations during therapy, but has not been clearly linked to cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.|Rolapitant is an orally available antiemetic agent that is used to prevent cancer chemotherapy related nausea and vomiting. Rolapitant therapy has not been associated with serum enzyme elevations or with instances of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.|Aprepitant is a small molecule, high-affinity substance P antagonist (SPA) with antiemetic activity. Crossing the blood brain barrier, aprepitant binds selectively to the human substance P/neurokinin 1 receptor in the central nervous system (CNS), thereby inhibiting receptor binding of endogenous substance P and substance P-induced emesis. This agent has little or no affinity for serotonin type 3 (5-HT3), dopamine, and corticosteroid receptors.|A morpholine neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist that is used in the management of nausea and vomiting caused by DRUG THERAPY, and for the prevention of POSTOPERATIVE NAUSEA AND VOMITING.
