Pamapimod (R-1503, Ro4402257) is a potent and selective inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase alpha. The preclinical data support the conclusion that pamapimod has the ability to inhibit the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases. Pamapimod was being developed for use in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. There is no clear-cut evidence that pamapimod alone or in the presence of methotrexate is efficacious in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis but it does cause adverse effects. It is unlikely that pamapimod will be useful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

Sample Use Guides

Rheumatoid arthritis patients receiving stable doses of methotrexate were randomised to one of six dose groups and received 12 weeks of double-blind pamapimod (up to 300 mg once daily) or matching placebo.
Route of Administration: Oral
After LPS stimulation of the human myelomonocytic cell line (THP-1), secretion of TNF was inhibited by pamapimod, with an EC50 of 0.025 uM. Pamapimod suppressed TNF- and IL-1 production in whole blood, with EC50 values of 0.40 and 0.10 uM, respectively.
