Abstract

PURPOSE: R667 is an orally active, gamma selective, retinoid receptor agonist. In contrast to to all trans retinoic acid ATRA, a potent pan agonist agonist with no retinoid receptor selectivity and a different PK profile, R667 showed improved efficacy in promoting structural lung repair and functional improvement in animal models of emphysema with fewer side effects. Two clinical studies are now extending that evaluation as a potential treatment for human emphysema.
