Bifeprunox(INN) (code nameDU-127,090) is anatypical antipsychoticwhich, similarly toaripiprazole,combines minimalD2receptoragonismwithserotonin receptoragonism.[1]It was under development for the treatment ofschizophrenia,psychosis and Parkinson's disease.[2]

In a multi-center, placebo-controlled study, 20 mg of bifeprunox was found to be significantly more effective than placebo at reducing symptoms of schizophrenia, with a low incidence of side effects.[3]An NDA for Bifeprunox was filed with theU.S. Food and Drug Administrationin January 2007. The FDA rejected the application in August 2007.[4]In June 2009, Solvay and Wyeth decided to cease development because "efficacy data did not support pursuing the existing development strategy of stabilisation of non-acute patients with schizophrenia."[5]
