Complement Inhibitors: Understanding

Complement Inhibitors: Overview

Complement inhibitors are a class of drugs that target the complement system, an essential part of the immune system involved in inflammation, pathogen clearance, and tissue homeostasis. The complement system, composed of over 30 proteins, can be activated via three pathways: classical, alternative, and lectin. Activation results in a cascade that leads to the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC), which can destroy pathogens and cells. However, excessive or uncontrolled complement activation is implicated in various diseases, including autoimmune disorders, kidney diseases, and conditions such as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Complement inhibitors work by blocking key proteins in this cascade, thereby preventing tissue damage caused by overactivation.

One of the most prominent complement inhibitors is eculizumab, which targets C5, a protein involved in the terminal complement pathway. By inhibiting C5, eculizumab prevents the formation of the MAC, reducing the risk of complement-mediated cell lysis. This drug has demonstrated efficacy in treating PNH, a rare hematologic disorder, and aHUS, a condition that leads to kidney damage. Newer complement inhibitors target different parts of the cascade, such as C3 or Factor D, offering more selective approaches to complement inhibition. These drugs are particularly significant for patients with diseases that are resistant to C5 inhibitors or for those where upstream inhibition might offer broader protection.

Complement inhibitors represent a growing field of therapeutics with applications beyond rare diseases. In addition to PNH and aHUS, research is exploring their use in common diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and lupus nephritis, where complement overactivity plays a critical role. The development of novel complement inhibitors is driven by advances in understanding complement biology, and with ongoing clinical trials, the landscape of complement therapeutics is expected to expand significantly. This growing market reflects the potential of complement inhibitors to address both unmet medical needs and new indications in diverse therapeutic areas.

Complement Inhibitors Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Complement Inhibitors report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Complement Inhibitors Emerging Drugs

• Gefurulimab: AstraZeneca

Gefurulimab, also known as ALXN1720, is a bispecific antibody developed by AstraZeneca, specifically under its Alexion division. This innovative therapeutic agent is primarily designed to target the complement component C5 and human serum albumin, making it a promising candidate for treating various chronic disorders, particularly generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG).

Gefurulimab functions by inhibiting the cleavage of complement component C5 into its active forms, C5a and C5b, thereby blocking the activation of the terminal complement pathway. This mechanism is crucial in conditions where the complement system contributes to disease pathology. The antibody has been engineered from llama-derived variable heavy-chain domains (VHHs), which are known for their stability and ability to bind tightly to antigens. Specifically, gefurulimab binds to both C5 and albumin simultaneously, enhancing its therapeutic potential. The drug is in the Phase III stage of development for the treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG).

• ANX005: Annexon, Inc.

ANX005 is a clinical-stage investigational monoclonal antibody developed by Annexon, Inc. for the treatment of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). ANX005 functions by selectively inhibiting C1q, thereby blocking its binding to peripheral nerves. This action is intended to halt the autoimmune attack that characterizes GBS, allowing for quicker recovery of muscle strength and overall function12. The therapy is administered intravenously and currently is in the Phase III stage of development for the treatment of Guillain-Barre Syndrome.

• DNTH103: Dianthus Therapeutics

DNTH103 is an investigational monoclonal antibody developed by Dianthus Therapeutics, specifically designed to selectively inhibit the active form of the C1s protein in the classical complement pathway. This pathway plays a significant role in various autoimmune disorders, making DNTH103 a promising candidate for treating conditions such as generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG), Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN), and Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP). The drug is in the Phase II stage of development for the treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG).

• ALS 205: Alsonex Pharmaceuticals

ALS-205, also known as PMX205, is an investigational drug developed at the University of Queensland, targeting the C5a receptor (C5aR). This receptor is implicated in neuroinflammation, which plays a significant role in the progression of motor neuron diseases (MND), including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS-205 works by blocking C5aR, a molecule that has been found to be elevated in patients with MND. By inhibiting this receptor, the drug aims to reduce neuroinflammation associated with ALS and potentially slow disease progression. The drug is in the Phase I stage of development for the treatment of Motor neuron disease.
