“…At the same time, the availability of a C5 inhibitor in the clinic allowed for a gradual expansion of indications, which now include atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD). 3 Furthermore, the clinical use of eculizumab also revealed elusive pathogenic mechanisms that remain unaddressed under anti-C5 treatment, 4,5 paving the way for the clinical evaluation and approval of therapeutics that afford broader coverage/benefits in certain diseases, such as C3-targeted therapeutics. 6,7 After a derivative of eculizumab with improved pharmacokinetic properties (ravulizumab; Ultomiris, Alexion) was introduced in 2018, 8 the past 2 years finally saw the approval of novel complement inhibitor classes that are distinct in their points of intervention, application routes, and indication areas.…”
