Imagabalin (INN, USAN; PD-0332334) was an investigational drug that acts as a ligand for the α2δ subunit of the voltage-dependent calcium channel,{{cite journal | vauthors = Quintero JE, Pomerleau F, Huettl P, Johnson KW, Offord J, Gerhardt GA | title = Methodology for rapid measures of glutamate release in rat brain slices using ceramic-based microelectrode arrays: basic characterization and drug pharmacology | journal = Brain Research | volume = 1401 | pages = 1–9 | date = July 2011 | pmid = 21664606 | pmc = 3197737 | doi = 10.1016/j.brainres.2011.05.025 }} with some selectivity for the α2δ1 subunit over α2δ2.{{cite press release | vauthors = Ereshefsky L | title = Therapies in the Pipeline for Sleep Disorders: Focus on Novel Mechanisms and Disease Models | pages = 11 | year = 2008 | url = http://www.cmellc.com/psychcongress/images/08pdf/43-5%20Ereshefsky.pdf | access-date = 2012-04-22 }} It was under development by Pfizer as a pharmaceutical medication due to its hypothesized anxiolytic, analgesic, hypnotic, and anticonvulsant-like activity. It reached phase-III clinical trials for treatment of generalized anxiety disorder; however, the trials were terminated by the manufacturer.{{Cite web | author = Pfizer | title = A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, 10-Week Placebo Controlled Fixed Dose Study Of PD 0332334 And Paroxetine Evaluating The Efficacy And Safety Of PD 0332334 For The Treatment Of Generalized Anxiety Disorder | date = 2012-11-09 | url = https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00658008 | access-date = 2020-09-08 | archive-date = 2021-03-28 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20210328220724/https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00658008 | url-status = live }}{{Cite web | author = Pfizer | title = A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, 10-Week Placebo Controlled Fixed Dose Study Of PD 0332334 And Paroxetine Evaluating The Efficacy And Safety Of PD 0332334 For The Treatment Of Generalized Anxiety Disorder | date = 2012-11-09 | url = https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00658372 | access-date = 2020-09-08 | archive-date = 2021-03-30 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20210330075157/https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00658372 | url-status = live }}{{Cite web | author = Pfizer | title = A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Group, 10-Week Placebo Controlled Fixed Dose Study of PD 0332334 and Paroxetine Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of PD 0332334 for the Treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder | date = 2012-11-09 | url = https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00658762 | access-date = 2020-09-08 | archive-date = 2021-03-31 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20210331014217/https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00658762 | url-status = live }}{{Cite web | author = Pfizer | title = A 52-Week Open-Label Safety Study of PD 0332334 in Subjects With Generalized Anxiety Disorder | date = 2012-11-09 | url = https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00735267 | access-date = 2020-09-08 | archive-date = 2021-04-01 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20210401114311/https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00735267 | url-status = live }} The drug is no longer under development.
Synthesis
Protein engineering has been used to modify the Vibrio fluvialis aminotransferase to catalyze the asymmetric transamination of a synthetic intermediate.{{cite journal | vauthors = Midelfort KS, Kumar R, Han S, Karmilowicz MJ, McConnell K, Gehlhaar DK, Mistry A, Chang JS, Anderson M, Villalobos A, Minshull J, Govindarajan S, Wong JW | title = Redesigning and characterizing the substrate specificity and activity of Vibrio fluvialis aminotransferase for the synthesis of imagabalin | journal = Protein Engineering, Design & Selection | volume = 26 | issue = 1 | pages = 25–33 | date = January 2013 | pmid = 23012440 | doi = 10.1093/protein/gzs065 }}
