Active Ingredient Description
Cerliponase alfa

Cerliponase alfa is a recombinant form of human tripeptidyl peptidase-1 (rhTPP1). Cerliponase alfa is a proteolytic inactive proenzyme (zymogen) that is activated in the lysosome. The glycosylation profile of cerliponase alfa results in consistent cellular uptake and lysosomal targeting for activation.
