Nemorexant (Daridorexant; ACT-541468; Quviviq; ACT541468) is a novel and potent orexin receptors antagonist that has been approved in January 2022 for the treatment of Insomnia Disorder in Adult Patients. It inhibits Ox1 receptor and Ox2 receptors with IC50s of 2 nM and 3 nM, respectively. By specific binding to both orexin receptors, daridorexant inhibits the actions of the wake-promoting orexin (also called hypocretin) neuropeptides. This mechanism avoids a more widespread inhibition of neuronal pathways and associated side effects that are intrinsic to positive allosteric GABA-A receptor modulators.
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Daridorexant reaches peak plasma concentrations within one to two hours. Daridorexant has an absolute bioavailability of 62%. While a high-fat and high-calorie meal delayed the Tmax by 1.3 hours and decreased the Cmax by 16% in healthy subjects, the total exposure (AUC) was not affected. The primary route of excretion is via feces, accounting for approximately 57% of drug excretion. About 28% of the drug is excreted via urine primarily in the form of metabolites. Trace amounts of the parent drug were found in feces and urine. Daridorexant has a volume of distribution of 31 L. The blood to plasma ratio is 0.64. It effectively passes the blood-brain barrier. There is limited information on clearance. Metabolism / Metabolites Daridorexant undergoes extensive metabolism primarily mediated by CYP3A4 (89%), mostly via oxidative transformations. Other CYP enzymes individually contribute to less than 3% of metabolic clearance of daridorexant. Biological Half-Life The terminal half-life is approximately 8 hours. |

Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation Amounts of daridorexant in milk are very low. If daridorexant is required by the mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. Until more data in breastfed infants are available, monitor the infant for sedation, poor feeding and poor weight gain. ◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. ◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. Protein Binding Daridorexant is 99.7% bound to plasma proteins. |

Pharmacodynamics
Daridorexant binds to and antagonizes the orexin receptors OX1R and OX2R (Ki = 0.47 and 0.93 nM, respectively) equipotentally. In clinical trials, daridorexant improved sleep onset and sleep maintenance, and patient-reported total sleep time. Patient-reported daytime sleepiness was also reportedly reduced. At a dose four times the maximum recommended dose, daridorexant does not prolong the QTc interval to any clinically relevant extent. Daridorexant is currently being assessed for a controlled substance schedule in the US. In a human abuse potential study, daridorexant showed some abuse potential at doses higher than the recommended dose (100-150 mg), indicated by similar “drug liking” ratings to zolpidem (30 mg) and suvorexant in recreational sedative drug users. However, at clinically relevant concentrations, daridorexant does not bind to abuse-associated CNS targets. In animal studies and clinical trials evaluating physical dependence, chronic administration of daridorexant did not produce withdrawal signs or symptoms upon drug discontinuation, indicating that the drug does not produce physical dependence. |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
