More Info: Compared to other NK1-receptor antagonists, rolapitant has both a more rapid onset of action and a much longer half-life. Rolapitant was approved in 2015. Rolapitant hydrochloride is approved to be used with other drugs to prevent: Nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. (last updated: 10/28/2016).

Product Data:
Biological target: Rolapitant has a high affinity for the human NK1 receptor of 0.66 nM and high selectivity over the human NK2 and NK3 subtypes of >1000-fold, as well as preferential affinity for human, guinea pig, gerbil and monkey NK1 receptors over rat, mouse and rabbit.
In vitro activity: Rolapitant was loaded into various lipid nanovesicles (LNVs), and the LNVs were evaluated for particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency (EE%), storage stability and surface morphology. The selected ethosomal and transethosomal vesicles displayed a particle size less than 400 nm, a positive charge, and EE% exceeding 90% for rolapitant, with a sustained release pattern over 15 days. The developed rolapitant-LNVs were able to reach the metastatic organs of lung cancer. Reference: Eur J Pharm Sci. 2022 Apr 1;171:106119. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34998905/
In vivo activity: This study utilized a male Wistar rat model of regular alcohol intake and subsequent withdrawl episodes. Upon intraperitoneal administration, rolapitant rapidly penetrated into specific rat brain regions implicated in the control of anxiety and reward. Rolapitant did not affect basal voluntary alcohol intake, but significantly suppressed anxiety-like behaviour and alcohol consumption following withdrawal episodes.
