FDA Acceptance of New Drug Application for Vilazodone for the Treatment of Major Depressive Disorder..

Vilazodone(see structure) is an antidepressant which is currently under  development by Clinical Data for the treatment of major depressive disorder, and as of 2009 has completed two phase III clinical trials with positive results. An NDA was submitted on March 23rd, 2010 in the United States and is currently pending approval by the FDA which, if approved, will likely precede vilazodone's availability on the market by the end of 2010.

Now the company claims that FDA has accepted for filing the Company's New Drug Application (NDA) for vilazodone for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD).


Vilazodone is a dual-acting potent and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and a 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist. The NDA will be subject to a standard review. 

The acceptance of the NDA for review by the FDA is another positive step toward our goal of bringing vilazodone to market, and if approved, vilazodone will offer a novel treatment to the millions of people suffering from depression”  says Carol R. Reed, M.D., Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of Clinical Data.....

Jeepers. Something new to do with indole. The compound looks fairly straighforward to manufacture at reasonable cost.
