| - Arbaclofen, or STX209, is the R-enantiomer of baclofen. It is believed to be a selective gamma-amino butyric acid type B receptor agonist, and has been investigated as a treatment for autism spectrum disorder and fragile X syndrome in randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trials. It has also been investigated as a treatment for spasticity due to multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injury. Arbaclofen was investigated as a treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, with disappointing results. (en)

http://linked.open...mechanismOfAction
| - Arbaclofen, or R-baclofen, acts upstream of the mGluR5 receptor to increase inhibitory neurotransmission. It is the isomer of baclofen which harbors antispastic activity. (en)

http://linked.open...ugbank/absorption
| - Unlike baclofen, absorption of arbaclofen is not limited to the upper small intestine. Arbaclofen can also be absorbed in the lower small intestine and the colon, allowing for the development of sustained release formulations. (en)

http://linked.open...rugbank/clearance
| - Blood clearance of an IV bolus of R-baclofen in rats, monkeys, and dogs, resulted in a half life of 1.6-3.4hours, in one study. Total blood clearance was reported to be 0.51±0.13L/h/kg in rats, 0.31±0.11L/h/kg in monkeys, and 0.24±0.01L/h/kg in dogs. (2) (en)
