Lisurid (LISURIDE)

Phase 3 active Small molecule Under review

Lisurid (generic name: LISURIDE) is a lisuride drug. It is currently in Phase 3 development for Acromegaly, Amenorrhea, Migraine.

Lisuride works by binding to and activating the alpha-2A adrenergic receptor, which helps to regulate various physiological processes.

Lisuride is a small molecule used in the treatment of various conditions, including Parkinson's Disease and Restless Legs Syndrome, through different administration methods such as intravenous and transdermal systems. It has been studied in clinical trials for its potential therapeutic effects on these conditions.

Likelihood of approval
55.3% vs 58.3% industry baseline
If approved by FDA: likely 2028–2030
Steps remaining: NDA/BLA submission
Confidence: High
Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 3 → approval rate +58.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 3 drugs reach approval ~58.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
  • CNS / neurology attrition -3.0pp
    CNS drugs have historically high Phase 3 failure rates (notably in Alzheimer disease + major depression).
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2028–2030
EMA EU 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
Health Canada CA 2029–2032 +0.9 yr
TGA AU 2029–2032 +1.2 yr
PMDA JP 2029–2032 +1.5 yr
NMPA CN 2030–2033 +2.3 yr
MFDS KR 2029–2032 +1.4 yr
CDSCO IN 2029–2033 +1.8 yr
ANVISA BR 2030–2033 +2.3 yr

Hover any row for the lag rationale. Lag estimates are reduced when the drug has FDA Breakthrough or EMA PRIME designation (sponsors file globally in parallel).

Estimate based on the BIO/Informa industry phase transition rates plus per-drug modifiers for therapeutic area, sponsor type, FDA designations, mechanism, and trial design. Per-jurisdiction lags from Tufts CSDD international approval studies. Not investment, clinical or regulatory advice. Methodology: /methodology#likelihood.

Mechanism of action

Imagine your body has a 'brake' system that helps to slow down certain processes. Lisuride works by pressing this brake, which can help to reduce symptoms of conditions like Migraine and Acromegaly. This is achieved by influencing the release of certain neurotransmitters and hormones.
