DAU 6215 (Itasetron) is a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) antagonist, which was developed by Boehringer Ingelheim. And was investigated for treatment the nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy, it was confirmed that this drug possessed antiemetic properties. Also was discovered, that chronic treatment with itasetron significantly improved retention abilities of the aged rats in this memory test. However, development of itasetron was terminated.
