NW-1689 is a process-related impurity of safinamide mesilate (SAFM). SAFM is a drug used to treat Parkinsons disease (PD). It is a highly selective and reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) and also blocks sodium channels and N-type calcium channels. These effects of SAFM help reduce the breakdown of dopamine and inhibit the release of glutamate. NW-1689 has a similar chemical structure to SAFM and has some similar pharmacological effects as SAFM, and can be used in Parkinsons disease research[1].
