Foliglurax (developmental code names PXT-002331, DT2331) is a positive allosteric modulator of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 4 (mGluR4), [1] which is under development by Prexton Therapeutics for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. [2] [3] [4] It reached phase II clinical trials, [2] but while it was found to be safe and showed some signs of clinical improvement, it failed to sufficiently distinguish itself from placebo to meet the study endpoints.
