Currently, many medications employed in clinical treatment exhibit limitations such as delayed onset of action and a high incidence of adverse reactions. Therefore, there is a pressing need to develop antidepressants that exhibit enhanced efficacy and safety. The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR), a distinctive glutamate-gated ion channel receptor, has been implicated in the onset and progression of depressive disorder, as evidenced by both preclinical and clinical research. The NMDAR antagonist, ketamine, exhibits rapid and sustained antidepressant effects, holding promise as a novel therapeutic approach for depressive disorder. However, its psychotomimetic impact and potential for addiction have restricted its widespread clinical application. Notably, over the past decade, studies have suggested that enhancing NMDAR functionality can produce antidepressant effects with improved safety, especially with the emergence of NMDAR-positive allosteric modulators (PAMs). We view this as a potential novel strategy for treating depression, forming the basis for the narrative review that follows.</p>","PeriodicalId":10508,"journal":{"name":"CNS drugs","volume":" ","pages":"985-1002"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142388643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients were titrated to fixed-dose brexpiprazole 2 mg/day from Week 1. Safety assessments included treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs; primary outcome) and clinical and laboratory variables. Efficacy was assessed using the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) 17-item total score, and Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) score.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;In total, 247 patients [rollover, n = 216; de novo (previously unexposed), n = 31] were included in the safety/efficacy populations, and 138 (rollover, n = 132; de novo, n = 6; 55.9%) completed the study.

TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation occurred in 26.7% of patients receiving brexpiprazole and 58.1% of de novo patients.

Patients have recurrent seizures, increased physical and psychiatric comorbidities, and higher mortality rate than the general population. Over the last 40 years, research has resulted in 20 new antiseizure medications (ASMs) approved between 1990 and 2018. In spite of this, up to one-third of patients (~ 1 million patients in the USA) have drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE), with little change between 1982 and 2018, a period of intense new ASM development. A minority of patients with DRE may benefit from surgical treatment, but this specialized care remains challenging to scale. Therefore, the greatest hope for breakthroughs for patients with DRE is in pharmacologic therapies. Recently, several advances promise to change the outcomes for patients with DRE. Cenobamate, a drug with dual mechanisms of modulating sodium channel currents and GABA-A receptors, achieves 90-100% seizure reduction in 25-33% of patients with focal DRE, a response not observed with other ASMs. Fenfluramine, a serotonin-acting drug, dramatically reduces the frequency of convulsive seizures in Dravet syndrome, a devastating developmental epileptic encephalopathy with severe DRE. Both drugs reduce mortality. In addition, the possibility of DRE prevention was recently raised in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex, a relatively common genetic form of epilepsy. A paradigm shift is emerging in the treatment of epilepsy. Seizure freedom has become attainable in a significant proportion of patients with focal DRE, and dramatic seizure reduction has been achieved in a developmental encephalopathy.
