Complement Inhibitors

Complement inhibitors are a type of monoclonal antibody that are used to treat paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). They prevent a part of the immune system from harming healthy cells and tissue.

Why are complement inhibitors prescribed?

  1. Myasthenia Gravis (17%)
  2. Anemia (17%)
  3. Macular Degeneration (17%)
  4. Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (17%)
  5. Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (17%)
  6. ANCA Associated Vasculitis (17%)

Key takeaways

Complement inhibitors are used to treat conditions like paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), myasthenia gravis (MG), and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). These medications work by blocking portions of the complement system, which is a part of your immune system that can cause inflammation and tissue damage when overactive. Complement inhibitors come in different forms, including oral pills and injections. Examples include Fabhalta (iptacopan), Zilbrysq (zilucoplan), and Izervay (avacincaptad pegol).
