Atosiban was introduced in the UK as an injectable inhibitor of preterm labor, a major cause of infant morbidity and mortality. This peptidic oxytocin analog is an antagonist of the vasopressin V1a receptor and of the oxytocin receptor which is found in dramatically increased concentration in the uterine myometrium of pregnant women near term. It competitively inhibited contractions in the pregnant guinea pig uterus induced by oxytocin and vasopressin. In a multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, treatment with atosiban caused pregnancy prolongation for up to 7 days in women with more than 28 weeks of gestation. In a comparative clinical trial, atosiban showed a comparable tocolytic action (uterine relaxant) to ritodrine but the former was significantly better tolerated, especially with regards to maternal cardiovascular side effects.
Atosiban is a nonapeptide, desamino-oxytocin analogue, and a competitive vasopressin/oxytocin receptor antagonist (VOTra). Atosiban inhibits the oxytocin-mediated release of inositol trisphosphatefrom the myometrial cell membrane.
Atosiban is useful in improving the pregnancy outcome of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in patients with repeated implantation failure (RIF). The pregnancy rate improved from zero to 43.7%.
