Description

Brexpiprazole is a N-arylpiperazine.|Brexpiprazole is a novel D2 dopamine and serotonin 1A partial agonist, called serotonin-dopamine activity modulator (SDAM), and a potent antagonist of serotonin 2A receptors, noradrenergic alpha 1B and 2C receptors. Brexpiprazole is approved for the treatment of schizophrenia, and as an adjunctive treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD). Although it failed Phase II clinical trials for ADHD, it has been designed to provide improved efficacy and tolerability (e.g., less akathisia, restlessness and/or insomnia) over established adjunctive treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD).|Brexpiprazole is an Atypical Antipsychotic.|Brexpiprazole is an atypical antipsychotic used in the treatment of schizophrenia and major depressive disorders. Brexpiprazole has been associated with a low rate of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy, but has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury.

Toxicity

The most commonly observed adverse effects include: weight increase, akathisia, somnolence, tremor and nasopharyngitis. Neonates are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms if exposed to an antipsychotic drug during the third trimester of development.

Liver test abnormalities were reported to occur in ~1% of patients on long term therapy with brexpiprazole, but similar rates occurred in patients on placebo or with comparator agents. There have been no published reports of clinically apparent acute liver injury due to brexpiprazole and only rare instances have been reported with the much more frequently used aripiprazole. Thus, liver injury due to brexpiprazole must be rare, if it occurs at all.

>99% protein bound in plasma to serum albumin and α1-acid glycoprotein. Based on in vitro studies, protein binding is not affected by warfarin, diazepam, or digitoxin.

Drug Information

As an adjunctive treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and for treatment of schizophrenia.|FDA Label|Treatment of schizophrenia.|Treatment of schizophrenia

Brexpiprazole is an atypical antipsychotic used in the treatment of schizophrenia and major depressive disorders. Brexpiprazole has been associated with a low rate of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy, but has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury.

Antipsychotic Agents

Drugs that bind to and activate dopamine receptors. (See all compounds classified as Dopamine Agonists.)|Drugs used for their effects on serotonergic systems. Among these are drugs that affect serotonin receptors, the life cycle of serotonin, and the survival of serotonergic neurons. (See all compounds classified as Serotonin Agents.)

Brexpiprazole reaches peak plasma concentration within 4 hours of administration, and steady state occurs within 10-12 days of dosing. Oral bioavailability is 95%, and can be administered with or without food.|Approximately 25% urinary and 46% fecal excretion. <1% and ~14% of the unchanged drug was recovered in the urine and feces, respectively.|Intravenous volume of distribution is 1.56L/kg.|19.8mL/h/kg

Metabolized mainly by CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 enzymes into its major metabolite, DM-3411. DM-3411 is not considered to contribute any therapeutic effect.

Brexpiprazole and its major metabolite, DM-3411 have half lives of 91 and 96 hours respectively.

Although the mechanism of action of brexpiprazole in the treatment of MDD and schizophrenia is unclear, the efficacy of brexpiprazole may be attributed to partial agonist activity at serotonin 1A and dopamine D2 receptors, and antagonist activity at serotonin 2A receptors.

Brexpiprazole Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Brexpiprazole is a kind of atypical antipsychotic. It is a dopamine D2 receptor partial agonist. As a novel serotonin-dopamine activity modulator, it can be used for the treatment of schizophrenia, and for the adjunctive treatment for depression. It can also provide efficacy and tolerability over established adjunctive treatments formajor depressive disorder(MDD).Recent study has also suggested it can ameliorate PCP-induced cognitive deficits in mice via 5-HT1A receptors.
