Balovaptan

Balovaptan (INN; developmental code name RG7314), is a selective small molecule antagonist of the vasopressin V1A receptor which is under development by Roche for the treatment of autism.[1] As of August 2019, it is in a phase III clinical trial for adults and a phase II clinical trial for children for this indication.[2] On 29 January 2018, Roche announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation for balovaptan in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).[3] The FDA granted this based on the results of the adult phase II clinical trial called VANILLA (Vasopressin ANtagonist to Improve sociaL communication in Autism) study.[4] The currently-recruiting (Until March 2020) phase III adult study is called V1aduct and the currently-closed (August 2019) phase II child study is called Av1ation.
