NIDA-41020 is a CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist. NIDA-41020 is structurally similar to Rimonabant, which is currently in clinical development. NIDA-41020 is less lipophilic; developed at NIDA as a potential radioligand for CB1 receptors, Ki = 4.1 nM [in comparison AM 251, AM 281, SR 141716 (Rimonabant) have Ki of 0.6, 4.5 and 1.8 nM respectively].
NIDA-41020 is a CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist.
