Six promising drug repurposing candidates for Alzheimer's disease and their sex-specific mechanisms and efficacy.
(PubMed, Neural Regen Res)
- "These included ibudilast, timapiprant, RG2833, diazoxide/ dibenzoylmethane (combined), and BT-11, which targeted key Alzheimer's disease-related molecular pathways such as amyloid-beta plaques, Tau tangles, and neuroinflammation. These drugs, at various stages of development, offer hope for not only managing symptoms but also addressing the underlying mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease. This review underscores the need for a multifaceted approach to Alzheimer's disease treatment, combining symptom relief with disease modification."

Novel aryl hydrocarbon receptor agonists as potential anti-inflammatory therapeutics: Identification and validation through drug repurposing.
(PubMed, Biochem Pharmacol)
- "While Febuxostat, Nitazoxanide, Rabeprazole, 2-(1'H-indole-3'-carbonyl)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester, 3-Indolepropionic acid, and Indirubin, were already known as AhR agonists, Nabumetone, Teriflunomide, Timapiprant/OC000459, and Caffeic acid phenylethyl ester have not yet been directly described in this context. Five candidates restored the epithelial barrier, as evidenced by increased transepithelial electrical resistance and induction of the tight junction proteins claudin-1/-2 and occludin, while exhibiting anti-inflammatory effects, i.e., decreased expression of toll-like receptor 4. Out of these, one compound was selected for future in vivo preclinical studies."

Attenuation of Laser-Induced Choroidal Neovascularization by Blockade of Prostaglandin D2 Receptor 2.
(PubMed, Transl Vis Sci Technol)
- "Using a laser-induced CNV model, the CNV size of wild-type (WT) mice treated with DP2 antagonist (CAY10471 or OC000459) was compared with that of untreated mice...DP2 blockade attenuated choroidal neovascularization. Drugs targeting DP2 are potentially a novel treatment for age-related macular degeneration."

Investigation on the use of fused deposition modeling for the production of IR dosage forms containing Timapiprant.
(PubMed, Int J Pharm X)
- "Formulations based on different polymeric carriers were screened, leading to the identification of a polyvinyl alcohol-based one, which turned out acceptable for versatility in terms of active ingredient content, printability and dissolution performance (i.e. capability to meet the dissolution specification set, envisaging >80% of the drug dissolved within 30 min). Following an in-depth evaluation on the influence of TMP solid state and of the voids volume resulting from printing on dissolution, few prototypes with shapes especially devised for therapy customization were successfully printed and were compliant with the dissolution specification set."

(PubMed, Postepy Dermatol Alergol)
- "Overall, compared with the control intervention for asthma patients, CRTH2 antagonist OC 000459 could significantly improve FEV (SMD = 0.22; 95% CI: 0.02-0.42; p = 0.03), peak expiratory flow (SMD = 0.22; 95% CI: 0.01-0.42; p = 0.04) and reduce the respiratory tract infection (RR = 0.47; 95% CI: 0.26-0.85; p = 0.01), but revealed no remarkable effect on predicted FEV (SMD = 0.14; 95% CI: -0.18 to 0.45; p = 0.39), or treatment-related adverse events (RR = 0.84; 95% CI: 0.52-1.36; p = 0.48). CRTH2 antagonist OC 000459 might be effective and safe to improve pulmonary function in asthma patients."

[VIRTUAL] The CRTH2 Antagonist Timapiprant Does Not Alter the Response Rhinovirus Infection in Asthma: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial
(ATS-I 2020)
- "Timapiprant failed to attenuate RV-induced asthma exacerbations in subjects with moderately severe partially-controlled asthma, other than to suppress a small increase in CRTH2 + cells in the bronchial wall. Three weeks pre-treatment with timapiprant may have been insufficient, and/or timpapiprant may only be effective in subjects with more severe/less controlled eosinophilic asthma."

Ocular allergy: update on clinical trials.
(PubMed, Curr Opin Allergy Clin Immunol)
- "Currently, the primary advances in treatment for allergic conjunctivitis has shifted from new ophthalmic agents to immunotherapy and improvement of drug delivery. This includes the classic subcutaneous and sublingual and the novel epicutaneous and intralymphatic immunotherapy delivery systems as well as an edible rice vaccine. New targets for treatment have spurred research into new antagonist drugs such as (OC000459), a prostaglandin D2 antagonist. The Marinosolv formulation using tacrolimus shows promise and may be considered for other ophthalmic agents in the future. Other nonpharmacological treatments such as stenting and mechanical barrier gel have demonstrated their usefulness in treating ocular symptoms."

Atopix Therapeutics announces positive phase IIb results for once daily OC459 in asthma
(Fort Mill Times)
- P2b, N=480;
NCT00890877
; "OC459, at a dose of 25mg once a day, showed a statistically significant improvement in lung function compared to placebo....Treatment with OC459 led to a statistically-significant reduction in the incidence of respiratory tract infections, an effect believed to be due to dampening the harmful Th2 immune response detrimental to the outcome of asthma patients infected with rhinovirus."

Late Breaking Abstract - Effect of timapiprant, a DP2 antagonist, on airway inflammation in severe eosinophilic asthma
(ERS 2019)
- "Treatment for 12 weeks with timapiprant in severe eosinophilic asthma patients was associated with an evident reduction of airway eosinophilic inflammation and an increase in FEV1 (although not statistically significant due to the limited sample size). Studies in larger population are needed to confirm these effects."

Late Breaking Abstract - An assessment of potential predictive biomarkers for the treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma with CRTH2 antagonists
(ERS 2019)
- "Baseline blood total CRTH2+ cells (r=0.75; p<0.001), eosinophils (r=0.76; p<0.001), basophils (r=0.53; p=<0.05), Type-2 cytotoxic T (Tc2) cells (r=0.52; p=<0.05), and sputum eosinophils (r=0.82; p<0.0001) were correlated significantly with the reduction in the sputum eosinophil count with timapiprant treatment. Conclusion High levels of blood total CRTH2+ cells, eosinophils, basophils, Tc2 cells, and sputum eosinophils are associated with the anti-inflammatory effect of timapiprant treatment and could be potential predictive biomarkers of response."
