Inecalcitol is a vitamin D receptor (VDR) agonist, a chemically modified analogue of calcitriol the active form of natural Vitamin D3. Inecalcitol is a novel synthetic vitamin D analogue developed by Hybrigenics. Inecalcitol was found to be 10 times more potent and 100 times less toxic than calcitriol. In addition to their well-known effects on calcium and phosphate homeostasis, calcitriol and VDR agonists are being increasingly recognized for their potent role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and immunomodulation.
