Cariprazine
Cariprazine (trade name Vraylar, previously known as RGH-188) is an antipsychotic drug developed by Gedeon Richter. It acts as a D and D receptor partial agonist, with high selectivity towards the D receptor. Positive Phase III study results were published for schizophrenia and mania in early 2012, and for bipolar disorder I depression from a Phase II trial in 2015. Action on the dopaminergic systems makes it also potentially useful as an add-on therapy in major depressive disorder
Rights are currently owned by Gedeon Richter and Actavis. The drug received FDA approval on September 17, 2015.
