Zevaquenabant (S-MRI-1867, INV-101, or MRI-1867) is an investigational small-molecule drug, discovered by the National Institutes of Health. Zevaquenabant was described as a third generation cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) antagonist due to its peripheral selectivity and polypharmacology.[1] It acts as a peripherally selective inverse agonist of the cannabinoid receptor 1 and an inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor.[2] [3] It has been studied in the experimental models of fibrotic disorders such as liver fibrosis[1], chronic kidney disease,[4] idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis,[5] Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome pulmonary fibrosis,[6] [7] skin fibrosis,[8] and metabolic disorders such as obesity[2] and dyslipidemia.[9]
