PNU-142633 is an experimental drug candidate for the treatment of migraine. It exerts its effect as a selective, high affinity 5-HT1D receptor antagonist.[1][2] PNU-142633 is well tolerated after oral administration.[3]

It was an interesting candidate due to its greater affinity for 5-HT1D compared to 5-HT1B receptors (typical migraine drugs such as triptans are agonists for both receptors), but experimental results were disappointing.[4]

The structure can be compared favorably with Sonepiprazole.
