Frequently asked questions about Repinotan

What is Repinotan used for?

Repinotan was studied as a treatment for acute ischemic stroke. It was evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with acute ischemic stroke, a condition in which blood flow to part of the brain is blocked. Repinotan is an investigational small molecule and is not an approved therapy.

What does Repinotan target?

Repinotan targets HTR1A, the serotonin 1A receptor, and acts as an agonist at that receptor. By binding and activating HTR1A, the small molecule is designed to influence serotonergic signaling. This receptor target is the basis for its investigation in acute ischemic stroke.

Who is developing Repinotan?

Repinotan was developed by Bayer AG, which trades on the OTC market under the ticker BAYRY. Bayer sponsored the clinical program evaluating the compound in acute ischemic stroke. Repinotan HCl is also known by the code BAYX3702.

What phase is Repinotan in?

Repinotan is in Phase 2 development. It is an investigational small molecule and has not been approved by the FDA for any indication. The Phase 2 program in acute ischemic stroke has been completed, and no trials are currently active.

What clinical trials is Repinotan in?

Repinotan was studied in one clinical trial, NCT00044915, titled Repinotan in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke. This completed Phase 2 trial enrolled 782 patients, was randomized, double blind, and placebo controlled, and ran across the United States, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

Is Repinotan the same as Repinotan HCl (BAYX3702)?

Yes. Repinotan HCl, also referenced by the code BAYX3702, is the same compound as Repinotan. The hydrochloride salt form and the internal Bayer code refer to the identical small molecule HTR1A agonist that was studied in acute ischemic stroke.
