Neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonists have the poten%al to be effec%ve in improving the symptoms of mo%on sickness, given the involvement of Substance P in nauseogenic and eme%c pathways and the expression of NK1 receptors in the gastrointes%nal system. Here, we evaluated the efficacy of tradipitant, a novel NK1 receptor antagonist, in preven%ng mo%on sickness in variable sea condi%ons. Methods A total of 126 adults par%cipated in the Mo%on Sifnos Study. Groups of par%cipants were assigned to one of seven boat trips las%ng approximately four hours on the Pacific Ocean. Par%cipants were randomized 1:1 to tradipitant 170 mg or placebo and completed the Mo%on Sickness Severity Scale (MSSS) every 30 minutes, in addi%on to other assessments. Severity of mo%on sickness was assessed with the incidence of vomi%ng and the MSSS. Results Par%cipants on tradipitant had a significantly lower incidence of vomi%ng as compared to those on placebo across all boat trips (tradipitant=17.5%, placebo=39.7%, p=0.0039). For trips exposed to rough sea condi%ons, the difference in the incidence of vomi%ng between the groups was more drama%c (tradipitant=15.79%, placebo=72.22%, p=0.0009). Across these trips, mo%on sickness symptoms were significantly lower in the tradipitant group compared to the placebo group (tradipitant=3.19, placebo=4.57, p=0.0235).

Nausea and vomi%ng are the core symptoms of mo%on sickness [2]. Other symptoms may include swea%ng, dizziness, headache, irritability, and loss of appe%te. The e%ology and pathogenesis of disease are most commonly theorized as an aggrega%on of conflic%ng sensory informa%on that leads to an unpleasant physiological reac%on resul%ng in the symptoms described above [3-4]. Travelers with mo%on sickness have impaired cogni%ve performance [5], which can be of increased burden and danger in professional environments. Although there is a significant demand for efficacious therapies, the only currently approved treatments in the United States are dimenhydrinate (Dramamine), hyoscine (Scopolamine), and meclizine (Dramamine non-drowsy). These therapies carry incomplete efficacy and can have bothersome and dangerous adverse effects, such as drowsiness and dizziness [6]. An ideal therapy would be efficacious in the treatment of the cardinal symptoms of nausea and vomi%ng without inducing the array of adverse effects as seen with current medica%ons. NK1 receptor antagonists have the poten%al to be effec%ve in the treatment of mo%on sickness in humans. NK1 receptors are expressed in the network of brainstem nuclei including the area postrema and nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) that are involved in the regula%on of vomi%ng [7]. Transmission of emetogenic sensory and emo%onal signals from higher cor%cal centers to the NTS can result in reflexive vomi%ng. The ves%bular centers in the brainstem send signals to the NTS to trigger emesis in response to ver%go, dizziness, or visuospa%al disorienta%on [8]. When the NTS receives the direct input from those sources, Substance P (SP), the most abundant neurokinin, is released [9]. Substance P preferen%ally binds to the NK1 receptors densely located in the NTS, which triggers this cascade of physiological responses, including emesis [8]. NK1 receptor antagonists are effec%ve and approved for the treatment of nausea and vomi%ng in other indica%ons. Maropitant is an approved NK1 receptor antagonist shown to be effec%ve for the preven%on of vomi%ng in dogs and cats due to mo%on sickness [10]. The NK1 receptor antagonist aprepitant is approved for the preven%on of post-opera%ve nausea and vomi%ng [11]. medRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.04.06.20055715; this version posted April 11, 2020.

It is made available under a CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license . 5 Tradipitant (VLY-686) is a novel NK1 receptor antagonist in development for the treatment of gastroparesis and atopic derma%%s. Tradipitant was shown to be effec%ve in the treatment of nausea and vomi%ng in gastroparesis in a 4-week randomized study [12]. Given this evidence to support the use of tradipitant as an NK1 receptor antagonist to treat nausea and vomi%ng and specifically in mo%on sickness, we designed and conducted the Mo%on Sifnos Study. Regarding the elec%on of modality to induce mo%on sickness, we conducted the study in natural sea condi%ons in the Pacific Ocean for several reasons: (1) seasickness is the classical archetype to induce mo%on sickness (2) exposure to natural sea mo%on supports the study condi%ons as ecologically valid, and (3) simula%on in real-world condi%ons offers the unique opportunity to evaluate the medica%on as it would be used once available to the public. Further, sea travel consists of ver%cal sinusoidal mo%ons induced by waves. The amplitude of these mo%ons is related to the wave height and corresponds to heave (linear ver%cal mo%on), which is the strongest s%mulus to induce mo%on sickness, contribu%ng more to provoca%on than the angular accelera%ons of pitch, roll, and yaw [13]. The frequency and accelera%on of ver%cal sinusoidal mo%ons can also be assessed. In an evalua%on of mo%on sickness incidence as a func%on of the frequency and accelera%on of ver%cal sinusoidal mo%on, wave frequencies around 0.2 Hz were most provoca%ve, and mo%on sickness incidence increased with accelera%on (propor%onal to the amplitude of the waves) across all wave frequencies [14]. The goal of the Mo%on Sifnos Study was to examine the effects of tradipitant in trea%ng the symptoms of mo%on sickness, with a focus on the core symptoms. medRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.04.06.20055715; this version posted April 11, 2020.

Par8cipants Eligible par%cipants were adults aged between 18 and 75 years with a history of mo%on sickness, otherwise in good health (determined by medical and psychiatric history, physical examina%on, electrocardiography, serum chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, and urine toxicology) and lacking any major nausea-inducing disorders.

    Neurokinin Receptor NK receptor There are three main classes of neurokinin receptors: NK1R (the substance P preferring receptor), NK2R, and NK3R. These tachykinin receptors belong to the class I (rhodopsin-like) G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family. The various tachykinins have different binding affinities to the neurokinin receptors: NK1R, NK2R, and NK3R. These neurokinin receptors are in the superfamily of transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) and contain seven transmembrane loops. Neurokinin-1 receptor interacts with the Gαq-protein and induces activation of phospholipase C followed by production of inositol triphosphate (IP3) leading to elevation of intracellular calcium as a second messenger. Further, cyclic AMP (cAMP) is stimulated by NK1R coupled to the Gαs-protein.

  • The Implications of Pruritogens in the Pathogenesis of Atopic Dermatitis
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review The Implications of Pruritogens in the Pathogenesis of Atopic Dermatitis Lai-San Wong 1 , Yu-Ta Yen 2 and Chih-Hung Lee 1,* 1 Department of Dermatology, Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital and Chang Gung University College of Medicine, Kaohsiung 833, Taiwan; [email protected] 2 Department of Dermatology, Fooying University Hospital, Pingtung 928, Taiwan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-7-7317123 (ext. 2299) Abstract: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a prototypic inflammatory disease that presents with intense itching. The pathophysiology of AD is multifactorial, involving environmental factors, genetic susceptibility, skin barrier function, and immune responses. A recent understanding of pruritus transmission provides more information about the role of pruritogens in the pathogenesis of AD. There is evidence that pruritogens are not only responsible for eliciting pruritus, but also interact with immune cells and act as inflammatory mediators, which exacerbate the severity of AD. In this review, we discuss the interaction between pruritogens and inflammatory molecules and summarize the targeted therapies for AD. Keywords: itch; atopic dermatitis; pruritogens 1. Introduction Citation: Wong, L.-S.; Yen, Y.-T.; Lee, Pruritus is defined as a desire to scratch, which is a defense mechanism to eliminate C.-H.

Atopic dermatitis in the Pathogenesis of Atopic (AD) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by pruritus, and is recognized as a Dermatitis. Int. J. Mol.
