Tiratricol (Emcitate®) is an orally bioavailable small molecule being developed by Egetis Therapeutics for the treatment of monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) deficiency. Tiratricol, an analogue and metabolite of the thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3), has thyromimetic effects but differs from T3 in that it can enter cells independent of MCT8. Tiratricol received its first approval on 12 February 2025 in the European Union, for the treatment of peripheral thyrotoxicosis in patients with MCT8 deficiency (Allan-Herndon-Dudley Syndrome), from birth. Tiratricol will be available as 350 µg dispersible tablets. Tiratricol is currently undergoing clinical development for MCT8 deficiency in several other countries including the USA. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of tiratricol leading to this first approval for MCT8 deficiency.
期刊介绍:
Drugs is a journal that aims to enhance pharmacotherapy by publishing review and original research articles on key aspects of clinical pharmacology and therapeutics. The journal includes:
Leading/current opinion articles providing an overview of contentious or emerging issues.
Definitive reviews of drugs and drug classes, and their place in disease management.
Therapy in Practice articles including recommendations for specific clinical situations.
High-quality, well designed, original clinical research.
Adis Drug Evaluations reviewing the properties and place in therapy of both newer and established drugs.
AdisInsight Reports summarising development at first global approval.
Moreover, the journal offers additional digital features such as animated abstracts, video abstracts, instructional videos, and podcasts to increase visibility and educational value. Plain language summaries accompany articles to assist readers with some knowledge of the field in understanding important medical advances.
