Bioactivity | BIA 10-2474 is an inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) with IC50 values of 50 to 70mg/kg in various rat brain regions. | ||||||||||||
Target | IC50: 50-70mg/kg (FAAH, rat brain regions) | ||||||||||||
Invitro | ExVivo: BIA 10-2474 proves to be a potent FAAH inhibitor with IC50s of 50-70mg/kg (i.p.) in various brain regions. IC50 values for brain regions are 52 (cerebellum), 67 (rest of brain), 68 (cortex), and 71 mg/kg (hypothalamus)[1]. | ||||||||||||
In Vivo | In January 2016, severe adverse events (SAE) occurs in the Phase I clinical trial using the drug BIA 10-2474 including one death. The possibilities for failure of trials such as off-target effect, dose calculation, unexpected immune response, species variation, and cumulative dose toxicity would be sought[2]. | ||||||||||||
