Etodolac is an anti-inflammatory agent with analgesic and antipyretic properties. It is used to treat osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and control acute pain. The therapeutic effects of etodolac are achieved via inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins involved in fever, pain, swelling and inflammation. Etodolac is administered as a racemate. As with other NSAIDs, the S-form has been shown to be active while the R-form is inactive. Both enantiomers are stable and there is no evidence of R- to S- conversion in vivo. Similar to other NSAIDs, the anti-inflammatory effects of etodolac result from inhibition of the enzyme cycooxygenase (COX). This decreases the synthesis of peripheral prostaglandins involved in mediating inflammation. Etodolac binds to the upper portion of the COX enzyme active site and prevents its substrate, arachidonic acid, from entering the active site. Etodolac was previously thought to be a non-selective COX inhibitor, but it is now known to be 5 – 50 times more selective for COX-2 than COX-1. Antipyresis may occur by central action on the hypothalamus, resulting in peripheral dilation, increased cutaneous blood flow, and subsequent heat loss. Etodolac is used for acute and long-term management of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as for the management of pain. Lodine, the brand-name formulation of the drug, has been discontinued in the United States, and only the generic form of etodolac is available.

CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)
R-etodolac (SDX-101) is the non-cyclooxygenase 2-inhibiting R-enantiomer of the non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug etodolac (1,8-diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-acetic acid). The absolute configuration of the enantiomer is R-(-)-etodolac. R-etodolac specifically bound retinoid X receptor (RXRalpha), inhibited RXRalpha transcriptional activity, and induced its degradation by a ubiquitin and proteasome-dependent pathway. In addition R-etodolac can disrupt the beta-catenin signaling pathway. R-etodolac exerts antineoplastic properties. R-etodolac was in phase 2 studies for the treatment of hematologic malignancies however development was discontinued.
