Mavoglurant (developmental code name AFQ-056) is an experimental drug candidate for the treatment of fragile X syndrome and other conditions.[1][2] It exerts its effect as an antagonist of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5).[3][4][5]

Mavoglurant was under development by Novartis and reached phase II and phase III clinical trials.[2][6] Phase IIb/III dose finding and evaluation trials for fragile X-syndrome were discontinued by the end of 2014.[7] Otherwise, it would have been the first drug to treat the underlying disorder instead of the symptoms of fragile X syndrome.[8] Mavoglurant was also in phase II clinical trials for Levodopa-induced dyskinesia.[9][10] In 2007, Norvartis had conducted a clinical study to assess its ability of reducing cigarette smoking, but no results had been published up till now.[11] Novartis was conducting a clinical trial with this drug on obsessive–compulsive disorder.[12]

Novartis discontinued development of mavoglurant for fragile X syndrome in April 2014 following disappointing trial results.[7] Development was discontinued for other indications by 2017.[1]

Recently, Stalicla, a biotech company applying artificial intelligence to identify subgroups of high-responder patients, acquired worldwide rights from Novartis to progress the drug for substance-use and neurodevelopmental disorders.[13] [14][15]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
