Sobetirome (GC-1) is a thyromimetic drug that binds to the thyroid hormone receptor TRβ1 preferentially compared to TRα1. It has been investigated for the treatment of dyslipidemia, obesity,[1] Pitt–Hopkins syndrome,[2] cholestatic liver disease,[3] multiple sclerosis,[4] bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis,[5] and COVID-19 caused ARDS.[6] It was designated as an orphan drug by the FDA for the treatment of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy.[7]
