First Target: Endocannabinoid modulation through MGLL inhibition -
A compelling therapeutic target for a wide range of CNS diseases
*
*
Monoacylglycerol lipase inhibitors
(MGLLI) regulate endocannabinoid
tone, which regulates
neurotransmitter balance
MGLLI selectively activate CB1 by
elevating 2-AG levels only in active
circuits - contrast with global,
maximal, and sustained activation by
exocannabinoids
Lead molecule Lu AG06466 is a potent,
selective first-in-class MGLLI in clinical
development in two indications
Two additional endocannabinoid
modulators advancing to the clinic
through 2020
