Introduction : Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) is an ion channel that is widely expressed and is activated by numerous chemical, osmotic and mechanical stimuli. By modulating Ca 2+ entry, TRPV4 regulates cellular signaling associated with a variety of (patho)physiological processes and is a target of interest for treatment of human diseases including heart failure, respiratory diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, dermatological conditions, pain and cancer, among others. Areas covered : This article reviews small molecule TRPV4 antagonists and new therapeutic use claims disclosed in the patent literature from 2015 to 2020, including applications covering the first potent and selective TRPV4 clinical candidate and other advanced chemotypes. Expert opinion : TRPV4 has proven to be a tractable target and significant progress in discovery of TRPV4 antagonists has been realized in recent years. Several unique chemical templates with drug-like properties inhibit the channel and show efficacy in models that suggest their potential for treatment of a variety of diseases. While compelling clinical efficacy has not yet been seen in the limited early studies conducted with GSK2798745, evaluation of TRPV4 antagonists in larger trials across several indications is warranted given the availability of high-quality candidates and the promise of therapeutic benefit based on pre-clinical evidence. |
