Uses
JNJ-54717793, as a brain penetrant, is an orally active, selective and high affinity orexin-1 receptor (OX1R) antagonist (plasma EC50=85 ng/mL). The Ki values of JNJ-54717793 for hOX1R (human OX1R) and hOX2R are 16 nM and 700 nM, respectively. JNJ-54717793 is a potent compound of anxiety disorders[1][2].
