Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Iptacopan, also known as LNP023, is a complement Factor B Inhibitor (IC50=10 nM). LNP023 improves LN in MRL/lpr mice. The mechanism is as follows: LNP023 binds to CFB to inhibit the activation of the alternative complement pathway. LNP023 treatment for LN may also play a role in regulating the protein expression of AKT, TNF-α, and STST3. LNP023 showed low clearance and high bioavailability (62.2%). Furthermore, four minor metabolites from rat plasma were detected and identified by LC combined with high-resolution mass spectrometry. The metabolic pathways were O-deethylation (M1), hydroxylation (M4), oxidation (M3), and acyl-glucuronidation (M2).

More Info
Lupus nephritis (LN) is the most common complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and the abnormal activation of the alternative complement pathway is associated with the pathogenesis of LN. As an inhibitor of complement factor B (CFB) in the alternative pathway, LNP023 has been used in the treatment of a variety of renal diseases with abnormal complement system involvement, such as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, IgA nephropathy, and membranous nephropathy.
Biological target:
Iptacopan (LNP023) is a first-in-class, orally bioavailable, highly potent and highly selective factor B inhibitor with an IC50 value of 10 nM. Iptacopan shows direct, reversible, and high-affinity binding to human factor B with a KD of 7.9 nM. Iptacopan targets the underlying cause of complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G).
In vitro activity:
TBD
In vivo activity:
After the 19th and 20th weeks of LNP023 interventional therapy, the urinary protein concentration in MRL/lpr mice in the LNP023 group was significantly lower than that in mice in the MRL/lpr model group and showed a decreasing trend, indicating that LNP023 alleviated lupus kidney injury in MRL/lpr mice (Fig. 2B).
