Trapidil is used in the treatment of chronic stable angina pectoris. It is currently marketed in Japan under the brand name Rocornal.[1]

An analog was assigned the codename AR 12-456.[2]

Pharmacology

Based on cell free in vitro activity assays, trapidil at therapeutic concentrations causes selective phosphorylation of cellular proteins through positive modulation of regulatory subunit RII(α/β) containing protein kinase A (PKA).[3][4] At higher, non-physiologically relevant concentrations, which are generally not achieved after administration of therapeutic doses, non-selective inhibition of phosphodiesterases occurs.[4] Further, the previous documented activities as an antagonist of platelet-derived growth factor[5] are abolished when a PKA inhibitor is administered, suggesting that these noted activities are PKA mediated.[4] At these higher concentrations,[6] additional effects have been noted including vasodilation and inhibition of platelet aggregation[7][8]
