Pridopidine is an experimental drug candidate belonging to a class of agents known as dopidines, which act as dopaminergic stabilizers in the central nervous system. As a dopamine stabilizer, pridopidine is thought to reduce the effects of dopamine when there’s too much and increase its effects when there’s too little. Pridopidine, therefore, plays two opposing roles in the brain, which stabilize dopamine levels. In this way, pridopidine is thought to help the brain reestablish a normal balance of neurotransmitters, and thus regain control over motion. Pridopidine intended to treat Huntington’s disease movement symptoms. Pridopidine was well tolerated and had an adverse event profile similar to a placebo.
