Iptacopan , sold under the brand name Fabhalta, is a medication used for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.[1] It is a complement factor B inhibitor that was developed by Novartis.[1] It is taken by mouth.[1]
Iptacopan was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adults with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria in December 2023.[2][3]
Medical uses
Iptacopan is indicated for the treatment of adults with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.[1][4]
Side effects
The FDA label for iptacopan contains a black box warning for the risk of serious and life-threatening infections caused by encapsulated bacteria, including Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, and Haemophilus influenzae type B.[1]
Research
In a clinical study with twelve participants, iptacopan as a single drug led to the normalization of hemolytic markers in most patients, and no serious adverse events occurred during the 12-week study.[5][6]
Iptacopan is also investigated as a drug in other complement-mediated diseases, like age-related macular degeneration and some types of glomerulopathies.[7]
