Metoclopramide, the only FDA-approved, short-term medicine in the U.S., carries a black box warning due to the risk of tardive dyskinesia as it crosses the blood brain barrier.
Approach
CinDome Pharma, a CinRx portfolio company, is advancing deudomperidone (CIN-102) for the treatment of chronic gastroparesis. Gastroparesis, or delayed gastric emptying, occurs when the stomach does not empty normally, causing abdominal discomfort, severe nausea, or vomiting after eating. These symptoms can be hard to manage and lead to other complications.
An estimated 12-16 million people in the United States alone experience symptoms of gastroparesis and there is no long-term treatment for this debilitating condition. The incidence is growing on pace with type 2 diabetes.
Deudomperidone is a novel formulation of a well-known dopamine D2/D3 antagonist. Deudomperidone was designed to improve safety while maintaining the efficacy of domperidone, which has both prokinetic and antiemetic effects with no anticholinergic activity.
There is a lack of safe, well-tolerated and chronic treatments for gastroparesis.

Deudomperidone
(CIN-102) - Phase 2Deudomperidone (CIN-102) is an oral, small molecule dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist. As an antiemetic and prokinetic, deudomperidone improves gastric emptying and relieves the symptoms of nausea and vomiting associated with gastroparesis.
Deudomperidone has successfully completed its Phase 1 program, demonstrated a negative thorough QT study and conducted a proof-of-concept Phase 2 trial demonstrating a reduction in gastric emptying.
CinDome is currently enrolling the envision3D study for people who have diabetic gastroparesis.
