SRX246 is a small-molecule, centrally-active vasopressin V1A receptor antagonist which is undergoing clinical trials for the treatment of affective and anger disorders. It has been studied in animal models, and has completed a phase I trial.[1] SRX246 is an azetidinone compound and is highly selective for the V1A receptor. It was one of many candidate drugs developed from LY307174 as a lead compound, and was found to penetrate into the brain.

A phase II activity trial of the drug in the treatment of adults with intermittent explosive disorder is ongoing.[2]
