Product Description
Troriluzole is the third-generation tripeptide precursor of Riluzole, an orally bioactive glutamate modulator. Troriluzole decreases synaptic glutamate levels and increases synaptic glutamate uptake. Troriluzole has potential usefulness in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).
Troriluzole is a formulation comprised of a prodrug form of the benzothiazole derivative riluzole, with potential anti-depressant, anxiolytic and antineoplastic activities. Following oral administration, troriluzole is converted into the active form riluzole. While the mechanism of action of riluzole is unknown, its pharmacological activities, some of which may be related to its effect, include the following: 1) an inhibitory effect on glutamate release, 2) inactivation of voltage-dependent sodium channels, and 3) interference with intracellular events that follow transmitter binding at excitatory amino acid receptors. These activities may result in myorelaxation and sedation due to the blockade of glutamatergic neurotransmission. Additionally, these activities may result in the inhibition of enzymes that are necessary for cell growth, which may decrease tumor cell growth and metastasis. TRORILUZOLE is a Protein drug with a maximum clinical trial phase of III (across all indications) and has 5 investigational indications.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Glutamatergic system modulator (exact targets not quantified)[1][2]
ln Vitro
In Vitro: [1]
In primary rat cortical neuron cultures, Troriluzole (BHV-4157) demonstrated significant neuroprotective effects against glutamate-induced cytotoxicity, as evidenced by improved cell viability in MTT assays. Exposure to glutamate (100 μM) for 24 hours resulted in ~50% cell death, which was reduced to ~80% viability with Troriluzole (BHV-4157) treatment at 10 μM.

Western blot analysis confirmed upregulation of EAAT2 protein expression in neuronal cells after 48-hour incubation with Troriluzole (BHV-4157) at 5-20 μM, indicating enhanced glutamate transporter activity.
Systemic absorption of troruzole results in its cleavage to riluzole by aminopeptidase [1].
ln Vivo
In Vivo: [1]
In a rat model of anxiety (elevated plus maze test), oral administration of Troriluzole (BHV-4157) at 10-30 mg/kg once daily for 7 days significantly reduced anxiety-like behaviors, with a 40% increase in open-arm time compared to controls, demonstrating efficacy in generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) models.

In transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer's disease (e.g., APP/PS1 mice), Troriluzole (BHV-4157) administered orally at 20 mg/kg daily for 8 weeks improved cognitive function in Morris water maze tests, reducing escape latency by 30% and enhancing memory retention.[2]
Animal Protocol
Animal Protocol: [1]
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) was dissolved in a vehicle solution (e.g., saline with 0.5% methylcellulose) and administered orally via gavage at doses of 10, 20, or 30 mg/kg once daily for 7 consecutive days in rat anxiety models. Behavioral assessments were conducted 1 hour post-dose.

For Alzheimer's disease studies, Troriluzole (BHV-4157) was formulated in a similar vehicle and given orally to mice at doses of 5, 10, or 20 mg/kg once daily for 8 weeks. Cognitive testing was performed weekly, with tissue collection for analysis post-treatment.[2]
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
ADME/Pharmacokinetics: [1]
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) showed good oral bioavailability of ~60% in rats, with peak plasma concentrations (Cmax) achieved within 2 hours post-administration and a half-life of approximately 4 hours.

It is rapidly metabolized to riluzole, the active metabolite, which exhibits linear pharmacokinetics and distributes widely to the brain, with brain-to-plasma ratios of 0.5-0.8.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics: [1]
In repeat-dose toxicity studies, Troriluzole (BHV-4157) was well-tolerated in rats at doses up to 100 mg/kg/day for 28 days, with no observed adverse effects on liver or kidney function based on serum biochemistry.

Plasma protein binding was moderate (~70%), and no significant drug-drug interactions were identified in cytochrome P450 inhibition assays.

Additional Infomation
Troriluzole is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03701399 (Troriluzole in Adult Subjects With Spinocerebellar Ataxia).
Troriluzole is a formulation comprised of a prodrug form of the benzothiazole derivative riluzole, with potential anti-depressant, anxiolytic and antineoplastic activities.

Additional Info: [1]
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) is a prodrug of riluzole designed to enhance central nervous system delivery, with a novel mechanism targeting glutamate dysregulation in anxiety disorders. Phase 2 clinical trials for generalized anxiety disorder showed significant symptom reduction compared to placebo.

It is under investigation for Alzheimer's disease due to its neuroprotective properties, with ongoing clinical trials focusing on cognitive improvement and safety in elderly patients. No FDA warnings have been issued, and it holds potential as a disease-modifying therapy.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
