Besipirdine is a potential novel first-in-class oral treatment for over active bladder currently in Phase II development, with a mechanism of action clearly different from that of antimuscarinics. It was under evaluation by Aventis up to phase III for Alzheimer’s disease, involving the administration of the compound to over 1500 patients. However, this research has been discontinued. Besipirdine antagonizes alpha-2 and alpha-1 adrenoceptors and inhibits both norepinephrine and serotonin uptake. The most common adverse events were asymptomatic postural hypotension and asymptomatic bradycardia.

Besipirdine inhibited [3H]-batrachotoxin binding (IC50 = 5.5 uM) in a rat brain vesicular preparation and concentration-dependently inhibited veratridine (25 uM)-stimulated increases in intracellular free sodium ([Na+]i) and calcium ([Ca2+]i) in primary cultured cortical neurones of rat. Besipirdine (30-100 uM) concentration-dependently inhibited (up to 100%) veratridine-stimulated release of [3H]-noradrenaline (NA) from rat cortical slices.
