Sofinicline is a selective agonist of the a4b2 subtype of nAChR. It is under development by Abbott Laboratories in collaboration with NeuroSearch. It is produced as a capsule in doses of 1, 2 or 4 mg. Sofinicline is a full agonist of the a4b2 nAChR. It has high binding affinity, ~ 0.1 nM, for this receptor. Sofinicline is orally active and is metabolized hepatically. Sofinicline has been used in trials studying the treatment of ADHD, neuralgia, diabetic neuropathies, diabetic polyneuropathy, and diabetic neuropathic pain, among others.

Sample Use Guides

Analgesic efficacy and safety of Sofinicline (ABT-894) was evaluated in 2 randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled clinical trials in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP). Study 1 (280 patients randomized) tested 1, 2, and 4 mg ABT-894 twice daily compared with placebo and 60 mg duloxetine once per day over 8 weeks of treatment. Study 2 (124 patients randomized) tested 6 mg ABT-894 twice daily vs placebo for 8 weeks. A sofinicline dose of 4 mg orally twice a day, at steady state, produced a Cmax of 11 - 15 ng/ml.
Route of Administration: Oral
Sofinicline is a full agonist of the a4b2 nAChR. It has high binding affinity, ~ 0.1 nM, for this receptor.
