KW-6002 is a selective adenosine A2A receptor antagonist, offering a novel mechanistic approach for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD). A2A blockade will increase in GABAergic inhibition on the medium-sized neurons, leading to a net decrease in excessive activation of striatopallidal output.
In vitro: The affinity of KW-6002 for the A2AR is 70-fold greater than that for the A1 receptor. The binding affinities (Ki) of KW-6002 for human A1 receptor and A2A receptor are >287 nM and 9.12 nM, respectively [1].
In vivo: In MPTP neurotoxin model of PD in mice, KW-6002 significantly attenuated striatal dopamine depletion under various conditions. In addition, pretreatment with KW-6002 (3.3 mg/kg, i.p.) before a single dose of MPTP attenuated the partial dopamine and DOPAC depletions 1 week later [2].
Clinical trial: In a clinical study, the authors evaluated the safety and efficacy of KW-6002 40 mg as monotherapy for Parkinson’s disease (PD) in 176 patients. The primary efficacy outcome was changed from baseline to endpoint, while safe and well-tolerated, failed to show a significant improvement from placebo for this endpoint [1].
