About MN-166 (ibudilast)
MN-166 (ibudilast) is a small molecule compound
that inhibits phosphodiesterase type-4 (PDE4) and inflammatory
cytokines, including macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF).
It is in late-stage clinical development for the treatment of
neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS (amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis), progressive MS (multiple sclerosis), and DCM
(degenerative cervical myelopathy); and is also in development for
glioblastoma, Long COVID, CIPN (chemotherapy-induced peripheral
neuropathy), and substance use disorder. In addition, MN-166
(ibudilast) was evaluated in patients that are at risk for
developing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
