| Iptacopan |
Iptacopan is a proximal complement inhibitor that targets Factor B (FB) to selectively inhibit the alternative pathway. Inhibition of FB in the alternative pathway of the complement cascade prevents the activation of C3 convertase and the subsequent formation of C5 convertase to control both C3-mediated extravascular haemolysis (EVH) and terminal complement-mediated intravascular haemolysis (IVH). |
