Pavinetant

Pavinetant (INN, USAN; developmental code names MLE-4901, AZD-4901, AZ-12472520, AZD-2624), is a small-molecule, orally active, selective neurokinin-3 (NK3) receptor antagonist which was under development by AstraZeneca and Millendo Therapeutics for the treatment of hot flashes and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).[1][2][3] It was also under investigation for the treatment of schizophrenia,[2] but development was discontinued for this indication due to lack of effectiveness.[1][4] In November 2017, development of the medication for hot flashes and PCOS was also terminated after its developer assessed the clinical risks and benefits.[1][3]
