Attenuation of the Positive-Reinforcing Effects of Ultra-Potent Fentanyl Analogs, Along with Those of Fentanyl and Heroin, During Daily Treatment with Methocinnamox in Rhesus Monkeys

Lisa R. Gerak et al.

Summary: The opioid crisis will continue without intervention, emphasizing the need for new treatments for opioid use disorder (OUD). Methocinnamox (MCAM), a new m opioid receptor antagonist, shows promise in blocking the effects of fentanyl analogs, but questions remain about its utility. This study investigates MCAM's effectiveness in attenuating the abuse-related effects of carfentanil and 3-methylfentanyl compared to other drugs.

Summary: Studies have shown that 5-HT2A receptor agonists do not enhance the reinforcing effects of opioids, suggesting they are unlikely to increase abuse potential.

Behavioral pharmacology of methocinnamox: A potential new treatment for opioid overdose and opioid use disorder

David R. Maguire et al.

Summary: Despite effective medications and efforts, opioid overdose and use disorder remain significant challenges. The emergence of potent opioids like fentanyl has worsened the problem. Behavioral pharmacology research is valuable for understanding drug effects and developing treatments for substance abuse disorders.

Alkoxy chain length governs the potency of 2-benzylbenzimidazole nitazene' opioids associated with human overdose

Grant C. Glatfelter et al.

Summary: This study examined the effects of nitazene analogues with varying alkoxy chain lengths as compared to reference opioids in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that certain nitazene NSOs are more potent than fentanyl as MOR agonists in mice, raising concerns about the high potential for overdose in humans exposed to these compounds.

Effects of Daily Methocinnamox Treatment on Fentanyl Self-Administration in Rhesus Monkeys

David R. Maguire et al.

Summary: Methocinnamox (MCAM), a long-acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist, shows potential as an effective treatment for opioid use disorder. Daily administration of a small dose of MCAM significantly reduces fentanyl self-administration and does not affect cocaine self-administration. The effects of MCAM last for up to 3 days and the treatment shifts the fentanyl dose-effect curve.

Summary: The study evaluated an optimized fentanyl-targeted vaccine in rhesus monkeys and found that vaccination eliminated fentanyl choice in most monkeys, supporting the potential for further clinical evaluation as a candidate Opioid Use Disorder medication.

Countermeasures for Preventing and Treating Opioid Overdose

Charles P. France et al.

Summary: The only medication available to prevent and treat opioid overdose is naloxone, approved by the FDA nearly 50 years ago. Due to its limitations, a scientific meeting was convened by NIAID/NIH to explore emerging alternative approaches for treating opioid overdose in the event of weaponization of synthetic opioids. This meeting discussed new approaches such as intranasal nalmefene, methocinnamox, covalent naloxone nanoparticles, serotonin receptor agonists, fentanyl-binding cyclodextrin scaffolds, detoxifying biomimetic nanosponge decoy receptors, and antibody-based strategies.

Methocinnamox Reverses and Prevents Fentanyl-Induced Ventilatory Depression in Rats

Victor M. Jimenez et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that methocinnamox (MCAM) can reverse and prevent the ventilatory-depressant effects of fentanyl, with a duration of action lasting up to 3 days to at least 2 weeks. This suggests that MCAM might provide an effective treatment option for opioid overdose crisis, particularly from fentanyl and related highly potent analogs.

Long-term antagonism and allosteric regulation of mu opioid receptors by the novel ligand, methocinnamox

Joshua C. Zamora et al.

Summary: Opioid overdose is a major cause of death in the United States, with current treatment mainly relying on the competitive antagonist naloxone. However, the short half-life and surmountable antagonism of naloxone limits its effectiveness. Research suggests that the long-lasting, non-surmountable antagonist methocinnamox (MCAM) may offer an improvement in overdose treatment by targeting mu opioid receptors.
