QUINAGOLIDE

Class (Stereo):

CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)

Targets:

D(2) dopamine receptor

Dopamine D2 receptor

CV-205502 (Quinagolide, Norprolac), a small molecule, dopamine 2-receptor agonist was developed by Novartis for the treatment of prolactinoma and hyperprolactinaemia. It is is a long-acting dopamine agonist with potent D2 and weak D1 activity. Quinag...

olide exists as a racemate and its relevant clinical activity is mediated predominantly by the (-) enantiomer. It is typically present in the hydrochloride salt form and is marketed as oral tablets under the brand name Norprolac contained as a racemate. Quinagolide is currently available in several countries including Canada, but not approved for treatment in the United States. Owing to its dopaminergic action, the drug exerts a strong inhibitory effect on the secretion of the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin, but does not reduce normal levels of other pituitary hormones. Long-term treatment with Norprolac was found to reduce the size or limit the growth of prolactin-secreting pituitary macroadenomas. In some patients the reduction of prolactin secretion may be accompanied by short- lasting, small increases in plasma growth hormone levels, the clinical significance of which is unknown. As a specific inhibitor of prolactin secretion with a prolonged duration of action, Norprolac has been shown to be effective and suitable for once-a- day oral treatment of patients presenting with hyperprolactinaemia and its clinical manifestations such as galactorrhoea, oligomenorrhoea, amenorrhoea, infertility and reduced libido.
