Sibeprenlimab-szsi

Anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody (Immunoglobulin A nephropathy treatment)

Description

First-in-class APRIL inhibitor for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). Reduces proteinuria by targeting B-cell activation factor essential for IgA production and pathogenic immune complex formation.

Mechanism of action

Selectively binds APRIL (a proliferation-inducing ligand), inhibiting B-cell differentiation and plasma cell survival. Reduces galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) production, decreasing pathogenic immune complex formation in glomeruli.
