Article Synopsis
  • Chronic pain affects about 20% of the U.S. population, leading to the development of EC5026, a new non-opioid, non-NSAID pain relief drug that inhibits soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH).
  • Two phase I clinical trials demonstrated that EC5026 is well tolerated in healthy volunteers, showing no serious side effects or significant changes in vital signs or lab results.
  • Pharmacokinetic analysis indicated that EC5026 has a prolonged half-life (around 59 hours), making it suitable for once-daily dosing, and results support further clinical trials for its effectiveness in treating pain.

Aims: GSK3640254 is a next-generation maturation inhibitor likely to be coadministered with combined oral contraceptives in HIV-positive women.

Methods: This phase I, open-label, 1-way study assessed pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions of GSK3640254 200 mg and ethinyl oestradiol 0.03 mg/levonorgestrel 0.

Aims: GSK3640254, a novel, next-generation maturation inhibitor effective against a range of HIV polymorphisms with no cross-resistance to current antiretroviral therapy, could potentially be coadministered with dolutegravir as a 2-drug regimen. In this phase I study, pharmacokinetics and tolerability of GSK3640254 plus dolutegravir were assessed.

Methods: Healthy participants received dolutegravir 50 mg once daily (QD) on Days 1-5 in period 1, GSK3640254 200 mg QD on Days 1-7 in period 2, and dolutegravir 50 mg plus GSK3640254 200 mg QD on Days 1-7 in period 3.

Venglustat is a small-molecule glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) inhibitor designed to reduce the production of glucosylceramide (GL-1) and thus is expected to substantially reduce formation of glucosylceramide-based glycosphingolipids. Because of its effect on glycosphingolipid formation, GCS inhibition has therapeutic potential across many disorders affecting glycosphingolipid metabolism. Therefore, venglustat is under development for substrate reduction therapy in multiple diseases, including Gaucher disease type 3, Parkinson's disease associated with GBA mutations, Fabry disease, GM2 gangliosidosis, and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
