Bioactivity | Fosaprepitant-d4 (dimeglumine) is deuterium labeled Fosaprepitant (dimeglumine). Fosaprepitant dimeglumine (MK-0517) is a prodrug of Aprepitant (HY-10052). Fosaprepitant dimeglumine is a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist, which is development for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV)[1]. |
Invitro | Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1]. |
