Oliceridine is a biased opioid agonist indicated for the management of severe acute pain in adult patients. Through preferential activation of G-protein-coupled signalling pathways, oliceridine provides analgesic effect with a comparable or improved safety profile over conventional opioid agonists.

Pain perception follows a complex pathway initiated in primary sensory neurons, subsequently transmitted to the spinal cord dorsal horn and through ascending axons to multiple regions within the thalamus, brainstem, and midbrain, and finally relayed through descending signals that either inhibit or facilitate the nociceptive signalling. Opioid receptors are seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that can be divided into μ, κ, δ, and opioid-like-1 (ORL1) subtypes,. However, the μ-opioid receptor is predominantly targeted by and is responsible for the effects of traditional opioids. GPCRs in the inactive state are bound intracellularly by a complex consisting of a G, β, and γ subunit together with guanosine diphosphate (GDP). Activation of the GPCR through extracellular agonist binding catalyzes the replacement of GDP with guanosine triphosphate (GTP), dissociation of both G-GTP and a βγ heterodimer, and subsequent downstream effects. In the case of the μ-opioid receptor, the G-GTP directly interacts with the potassium channel K3 while the dissociated Gβγ subunit directly binds to and occludes the pore of P/Q-, N-, and L-type Ca channels. Furthermore, opioid receptor activation inhibits adenylyl cyclase, which in turn reduces cAMP-dependent Ca influx. By altering membrane ion conductivity, these effects modulate nociceptive signalling and produce an analgesic effect. In addition to the G-protein pathway, μ-opioid receptor activation can also result in downstream signalling through β-arrestin, which results in receptor internalization and is associated with negative effects of opioid use including respiratory depression, gastrointestinal effects, and desensitization/tolerance. Oliceridine acts as a "biased agonist" at the μ-opioid receptor by preferentially activating the G-protein pathway with minimal receptor phosphorylation and recruitment of β-arrestin. Competetive binding assays and structural modelling suggest that the binding site for oliceridine on the μ-opioid receptor is the same as for classical opioids. However, molecular modelling supports a model whereby oliceridine binding induces a different intracellular conformation of the μ-opioid receptor, specifically due to a lack of coupling with transmembrane helix six, which confers the specificity for G-protein over β-arrestin interaction. Numerous in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies support the view that this biased agonism results in comparable analgesia compared with traditional opioids at a comparable or decreased risk of opioid-related adverse effects such as constipation and respiratory depression.
