Frequently asked questions about Domperidone

What is Domperidone?

Domperidone is a small molecule drug candidate that Johnson & Johnson is developing. It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development, with one completed Phase 1 trial listed. The specific therapeutic indication for this program has not been disclosed, and the compound is identified in chemical databases under the ChEMBL ID CHEMBL219916.

What does Domperidone target?

Domperidone targets DRD2, the dopamine D2 receptor, and acts as an antagonist at that receptor. This target class places it among compounds that block dopamine D2 receptor signaling. The drug is a small molecule and is being developed by Johnson & Johnson.

Who makes Domperidone?

Johnson & Johnson, which trades under the ticker JNJ, is the developer of Domperidone. The company is responsible for the clinical program, which is currently in Phase 1 development. No other development partners are identified for this asset.

What phase is Domperidone in?

Domperidone is in Phase 1 clinical development. One Phase 1 trial has been completed, and no active trials are currently listed. The program has not been approved by the FDA and remains investigational. The completed trial enrolled 44 participants and was conducted in China.

What clinical trials is Domperidone in?

Domperidone has been studied in one completed Phase 1 trial, NCT02816853, titled a study to evaluate the effects of Domperidone on cardiac repolarization in Chinese healthy participants. The trial enrolled 44 healthy volunteers, was randomized, double blind, and controlled, and was conducted in China.
