Mofegiline (MDL 72,974A or (E)-2-(4-fluorophenethyl)-3-fluoroallylamine, hydrochloride), is a selective and irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, mofegiline inhibits semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase activity from human serum and saphenous vein. In phase II studies, MDL 72,974A is proving to be a useful adjunct to conventional therapy of Parkinson's disease. It seems mofegiline development was discontinued.

Sample Use Guides

In human volunteers, potent inhibition of platelet MAO-B activity was observed at submilligram doses (ED50 = 90 micrograms) following a single oral dose. Upon multiple oral doses of 100 micrograms, as much as 80% of MAO-B could be inhibited. In phase II studies, Mofegiline (MDL 72,974A) is proving to be a useful adjunct to conventional therapy. Patients (250) with Parkinson's disease, treated once daily with either 1 or 4 mg, together with L-Dopa and a decarboxylase inhibitor (MadoparR or SinemetR), saw significant improvements in symptoms compared with those on standard therapy without the inhibitor.
