Drug classSelective serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist; Serotonergic psychedelic; Hallucinogen[1][2]

LPH-48 is a selective serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist and psychedelic hallucinogen which is under development for the treatment of alcoholism.[1][2][3] Its route of administration has not been specified.[1]

The drug acts as a selective agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor.[1][2][3] It is said to be an analogue of LPH-5 with similar characteristics but with faster metabolism and a shorter duration of action.[3] LPH-5 is a highly selective serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist that is under development for major depressive disorder and has shown antidepressant-like effects in animals.[4][5][6]

LPH-48 is under development by Lophora.[1][2] As of May 2024, it is in preclinical research for alcoholism.[1][2] The chemical structure of LPH-48 does not yet seem to have been disclosed.[1] However, Lophora has patented selective serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonists for treatment of depression[7] and the company is said to have patent protection for LPH-48.[1] Additionally, the structure of its close analogue LPH-5 is known and this compound is a phenylpiperidine derivative.[4]

About LPH-48: LPH-48 is a shorter acting direct analog of LPH-5 with similar optimized characteristics and safety profile, but with a shorter duration of action. LPH-48 is designed as a fast-follower that shows significantly faster metabolism, indicating a shorter duration of action in man. LPH-48 is a representative of the same proprietary compound class as LPH-5 and is therefore endowed with the same optimized characteristics including favorable drug-like properties and a safe pharmacological profile.
