Assessment of the anti-allodynic efficacy of a glycine transporter 2 inhibitor relative to pregabalin and duloxetine in a rat model of prostate cancer-induced bone pain.
Abstract
The pathobiology of prostate cancer-induced bone pain (PCIBP) is underpinned by both inflammatory and neuropathic components. Here, we used a rat model of PCIBP to assess the analgesic efficacy of a glycine transporter 2 (GlyT2) inhibitor (N-(6-((1,3-dihydroxypropan-2-yl)amino)-2-(dimethylamino)pyridin-3-yl)-3,5-dimethoxy-4-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy) benzamide) relative to two clinically available adjuvant drugs that are recommended for the relief of neuropathic pain, viz, pregabalin and duloxetine.
