Structure:
DrugBank Description: TBC3711 is a next-generation endothelin antagonist that is being studied through oral and intravenous formulations by Encysive Pharmaceuticals.
CAS Number: 349453-49-2
Molecular Weight: 447.52
DrugBank Indication: Investigated for use/treatment in congestive heart failure, hypertension, and pulmonary hypertension.
DrugBank Pharmacology: --
DrugBank MoA: TBC3711 is a small molecule that blocks the action of endothelin, a potent mediator of blood vessel constriction and growth of smooth muscle in vascular walls. It is a next-generation endothelin A antagonist which possesses high oral bioavailability and is more selective and potent than THELIN(tm) (sitaxsentan sodium) Encysive's oral treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension. TBC3711 is greater than 100,000-fold selective in the targeting of the endothelin A receptor versus the endothelin B receptor.
Targets: Endothelin-1
Inclusion Criteria: Indication associated
