CVN424 is a non-dopamine therapy that inhibits G protein-coupled receptor 6 (GPR6), which is an orphan receptor as it has no naturally produced agonist that activates the receptor. The GPR6 inhibition can potentially improve motor and non-motor manifestations of Parkinson’s. The drug was discovered using Cerevance’s NETSseq (Nuclear Enriched Transcript Sort sequencing) platform.
