Description: 

"Verucerfont, also known as GSK561679 and NBI77860, is a CRF-1 antagonist. Verucerfont blocks the CRH-1 receptor, and so reduces ACTH release following chronic stress. It is under investigation as a potential treatment for alcoholism, as chronic stress is often a factor in both development of alcoholism and relapse in recovering alcoholics. It has shown promising results in animal studies but has not been tested in humans. "

Target: CRF-1
