Pimavanserin (ACP-103) is a drug developed by Acadia Pharmaceuticals which acts as an inverse agonist on the serotonin receptor subtype 5-HT2A, with 10x selectivity over 5-HT2C, and no significant affinity or activity at 5-HT2B or dopamine receptors.[1] As of September 3 2009, pimavanserin has not met expectations for Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of Parkinson's disease psychosis,[2] and is in Phase II trials for adjunctive treatment of schizophrenia alongside an antipsychotic medication.[3] It is expected to improve the effectiveness and side effect profile of antipsychotics.[4][5][6]
