BOTOX(保妥适)是艾尔建的重要产品之一,其主要成分就是“大名鼎鼎”的肉毒杆菌素。这个产品可是众多美女明星的最爱,因为其具有除皱与瘦脸的神奇功效。然而最近的一项研究表明,这位“美容界的宠儿”还可以治疗抑郁。一项由德国研究者发起的II期临床试验显示,单次给予Botox在治疗抑郁的有效性上不输于其它抗抑郁药物。艾尔建在得知该研究结果后喜出望外,艾尔建首席科学官Nicholson表示,“如果该发现可以

BOTOX(保妥适)是艾尔建的重要产品之一,其主要成分就是“大名鼎鼎”的肉毒杆菌素。这个产品可是众多美女明星的最爱,因为其具有除皱与瘦脸的神奇功效。然而最近的一项研究表明,这位“美容界的宠儿”还可以治疗抑郁。


一项由德国研究者发起的II期临床试验显示,单次给予Botox在治疗抑郁的有效性上不输于其它抗抑郁药物。艾尔建在得知该研究结果后喜出望外,艾尔建首席科学官Nicholson表示,“如果该发现可以重现,毫无疑问Botox将可以在精神治疗领域大放异彩”。

目前,上百万的美国人饱受抑郁症的困扰。抑郁症分为不同的类型,每种类型需要不同的治疗方法,目前的抑郁药物只在大约1/3的病人中有效。医生需要给病人更换不同的治疗药物来确定有效的治疗方案。然而即使是这样,在治疗一段时间,同样的药物也可能不再对病人有效。

很明显,Botox与现有抗抑郁药物完全不同。虽然Botox是注射给药,而不是常见的口服给药。但Nicholson认为给药途径完全不存在市场障碍。“我们可以对精神疾病患者社区进行教育,如果Botox确实被证明有效,该药物将会很快被接受,其注射给药方式将会被忽略。”

Nicholson的乐观是有原因的,就在最近,Botox用于慢性偏头痛取得了显著成功。Nicholson表示,“Botox治疗慢性偏头痛的效果非常的显著,我们发起了一个培训项目,该项目深受神经学家和医生的欢迎,虽然他们之前也不习惯注射给药。”

作为艾尔建的主打药物,Botox在2015年的销售额为19.8亿美元。目前该药物已有11个适应症。虽然一提起Botox,大家就会将其与皱纹和鱼尾纹联系在一起,但实际上该产品在疾病治疗应用上如慢性偏头痛、膀胱过动症和肌肉痉挛要远比美容领域的销售额要高。

如果能扩大适应证到抗抑郁领域,该药物销售额或将会有新的突破。不过,不知道Botox治疗抑郁的机理是怎样的呢?会不会是因为病人用了Botox之后变美了然后心情大好了呢?

除了Botox之外,艾尔建还有一个处于临床III期的用于抑郁的药物rapastinel。Rapastinel是N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸受体调节剂,2014年FDA授予该药物用于难治性重度抑郁症辅助治疗的快速通道资格。
