RG7713, or RG-7713, also known as RO5028442, is a small-molecule vasopression V1A receptor antagonist which is or was under development for the treatment of pervasive developmental disorders or autism.[1] [2] [3] It is administered by intravenous injection.[4]

The drug is centrally penetrant and is devoid of antagonism of the vasopressin V2 and oxytocin receptors.[5] Clinical studies found induction of subtle improvements but also subtle deficits in social communication surrogates with RG7713 in adult men with high-functioning autism. A 2024 meta-analysis of vasopressin V1A receptor antagonists including RG7713 for autism found that they may not be effective in the treatment of the core symptoms of autism.[6]

As of December 2018, no recent development has been reported. It reached phase 1 clinical trials. Balovaptan (RG7314) has been described as a follow-up compound of RG7713 and reached later-stage clinical trials but was found to be ineffective.[7]
