Frequently asked questions about Olinciguat

What is Olinciguat used for?

Olinciguat is an investigational small molecule being studied in healthy volunteers. It is being developed by Cyclerion Therapeutics, Inc. (CYCN) and is currently in Phase 1 clinical development. The drug has been evaluated in clinical trials to study its absorption, metabolism, and excretion, as well as its interaction with other drugs.

What does Olinciguat target?

Olinciguat is a soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator. It works by stimulating sGC, an enzyme involved in the nitric oxide signaling pathway. This mechanism is being studied in early-phase clinical trials, though the drug is not yet approved for any condition.

Who makes Olinciguat?

Olinciguat is being developed by Cyclerion Therapeutics, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded under the ticker symbol CYCN. The company is conducting Phase 1 clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and pharmacokinetics in healthy volunteers.

What phase is Olinciguat in?

Olinciguat is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The completed Phase 1 trials focused on healthy volunteers to assess the drug's absorption, metabolism, excretion, and potential drug interactions.

What clinical trials is Olinciguat in?

Olinciguat has been studied in two completed Phase 1 clinical trials: NCT03795519, which examined the absorption, metabolism, and excretion of [14C]-Olinciguat in healthy male volunteers, and NCT03892499, which evaluated the effect of itraconazole, a CYP3A4 inhibitor, on the pharmacokinetics of Olinciguat in healthy volunteers.

Is Olinciguat the same as IW-1701?

Yes, Olinciguat is also known as IW-1701. In clinical trial NCT03892499, the drug is referred to as the soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, Olinciguat (IW-1701). Both names refer to the same investigational compound being developed by Cyclerion Therapeutics.
