Velusetrag (TD-5108) is a potent, selective high intrinsic activity serotonin 5-HT(4) receptor agonist. Velusetrag has achieved proof-of-concept in patients with chronic idiopathic constipation and was on phase II of clinical trial for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and constipation, when studies were discontinued. In addition, velusetrag is on the phase II of clinical trial for the treatment of gastroparesis.

Sample Use Guides
5, 15, 30 or 50 mg Velusetrag (single and 6-day dosing)
Route of Administration:
Oral
In all in vitro assays, TD-5108 was a high intrinsic activity agonist, unlike tegaserod, mosapride, and cisapride which, in the majority of test systems, had lower intrinsic activity. TD-5108 had high affinity (pK (i) = 7.7) and selectivity (> or =25-fold) for h5-HT(4(c)) receptors over other biogenic amine receptors. TD-5108 was >500-fold selective over other 5-HT receptors (including h5-HT(2B) and h5-HT(3A)) and, at 3 uM, had no effect on human ether-à-go-go-related gene K+ channels.
