Regeneron Announces Positive Results from Phase 3 Trial in Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Press Release) - "Historical clinical trial data report that currently approved C5 inhibitor therapies have shown a placebo-adjusted treatment difference in MG-ADL total scores ranging from ­-1.6 to -2.1 at 12 to 26 weeks...Both cemdisiran and cemdi-poze demonstrated improvements in activities of daily functioning at week 24, with cemdisiran showing numerically better results across all gMG-specific outcomes. In the MG-ADL and QMG, greater reductions in total scores indicate greater improvement in disease symptoms and better treatment effect....Detailed results from the NIMBLE trial will be presented at an upcoming medical meeting. The U.S. regulatory application for cemdisiran is planned for the first quarter of 2026, pending discussions with the FDA."

Neuromuscular junction and the complement system. (PubMed, Int Rev Neurobiol) - "The currently studied anti-complement therapies for MG include eculizumab, zilucoplan, ravulizumab, pozelimab, cemdisiran, gefurilimab, danicopan and few others in the pipeline. Given the risk of Gram-negative septicaemia (especially by meningococcus), patients would need vaccination prior to initiation of treatment and in some countries prophylactic antibiotics during treatment is recommended, although no major safety signatures have been noted in the studies so far. Future studies identifying specific biomarkers might help clinicians select the most appropriate patients who are more likely to respond to complement inhibitory therapies."

CLINICAL FEATURES AND OUTCOMES OF PAROXYSMAL NOCTURNAL HEMOGLOBINURIA PATIENTS TREATED WITH ECULIZUMAB IN TAIWAN: A MULTICENTER RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS (EHA 2025) - "Prior treatments included steroids (29.4%), cyclosporine (18.9%), anti-thymocyte globulin (10.8%), danazol (24.2%), and one crovalimab trial participant...Adjuvant therapies for EVH associated with symptomatic anemia included rituximab (n=2), steroids (n=14), cyclosporine (n=6), and danazol (n=5)... Eculizumab effectively reduces intravascular hemolysis and improves survival in Taiwanese PNH patients, though BTH and transfusion-dependent treatment discontinuation remain challenges."

The safety profile was generally consistent with approved C5 inhibitors. Reducing C5 with cemdisiran prior to administering pozelimab appears effective at mitigating DTD reactions in patients who transitioned from ravu."

The Role of Complement in the Pathogenesis and Treatment of Myasthenia Gravis. (PubMed, Cells) - "This has led to the development of the first C5 inhibitors approved for myasthenia gravis with AchR antibodies: eculizumab, ravulizumab, and zilucoplan. Other clinical trials are currently in progress, investigating the potential therapeutic role of other targets, including the Factor B inhibition or hepatic synthesis of the C5 protein. Other proposed potential targets that have not yet been clinically tested are also discussed in this review article."

The road ahead: emerging therapies for primary IgA nephropathy. (PubMed, Front Nephrol) - "Sparsentan is indicated for persisting proteinuria...To reduce Gd-IgA1 production, targeted-release budesonide is approved...The terminal pathway inhibitors cemdisiran and ravulizumab show promise in phase 2 studies. Our current approach for those requiring immunosuppression involves combining the reduction of Gd-IgA1 (nefecon) with suppressing the effects of inflammation (iptacopan). The optimal duration of such therapy is uncertain. Clearly, there is more to be learned with many trials underway."

Characteristics and Long-Term Efficacy of 25 Patients with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Treated with Eculizumab or Ravulizumab in Taiwan (ASH 2024) - "The median LDH level was 6.9 (range 1.67-14.74) times the upper limit of normal (ULN) at baseline.Before receiving eculizumab or ravulizumab, thirteen patients (52%) had previously received other therapies, including steroids in nine patients (36%), cyclosporine and/or anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) in five (20%), danazol in five (20%), and crovalimab in one (4%) who had been enrolled in a trial...Except for one patient who achieved remission of PNH and three patients who crossed over to clinical trials of iptacopan or pozelimab/cemdisiran, seven patients discontinued eculizumab...Eculizumab and ravulizumab were well-tolerated, and no cases of meningococcal disease were reported.Conclusion : Our experiences demonstrated the clinical characteristics and long-term efficacy and safety of eculizumab and ravulizumab in Taiwanese PNH patients with high disease burdens. However, a major reason for discontinuing treatment was the need for frequent transfusions, which did not meet..."

Novel Combination of Pozelimab and Cemdisiran (Poze-Cemdi) Achieved Greater Control of Intravascular Hemolysis in Patients with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Compared to Ravulizumab (GlobeNewswire) - P3 | N=190 | ACCESS-1 (NCT05133531) | Sponsor: Regeneron Pharmaceuticals | "Results for those treated with poze-cemdi (n=25), compared to ravulizumab (n=23), were as follows: i) 96% achieved adequate LDH control (≤1.5 x ULN) across study visits (weeks 8-26) on average with poze-cemdi, compared to 80% with ravulizumab. At 26 weeks, 5 patients receiving ravulizumab, compared with 1 patient receiving poze-cemdi, did not achieve meaningful LDH control. ii) 93% achieved LDH normalization (≤1 x ULN) across study visits (week 8-26) on average with poze-cemdi, compared to 65% with ravulizumab. iii) 84% decrease in LDH from baseline at week 26 with poze-cemdi compared to 74% with ravulizumab. iv) The CH50 profile observed with poze-cemdi demonstrated complete and uninterrupted inhibition of terminal complement, compared to the profile for ravulizumab showing loss of inhibition at the end of the dosing interval."

Complement inhibition in PHN: from biology to therapy (ISLH 2024) - "The anti-C5 monoclonal antibody eculizumab was the first treatment to improve hemolysis, thrombotic risk, and survival in PNH although at the price of a life-long intravenous fortnightly drug...Ravulizumab, a longer half-life anti-C5 developed from eculizumab, administered every 8 weeks, improved patient convenience, and reduced pharmacokinetic breakthrough hemolysis (BTH) by establishing more stable anti-C5 concentrations. More recently, several other anti-C5 compounds (crovalimab, pozelimab, tesidolumab, cemdisiran, zilucoplan, and coversin) are on study in clinical trials. Upstream inhibition of complement cascade was also explored with the anti-C3 pegcetacoplan, and with the alternative pathway inhibitors iptacopan (anti-factor B) and danicopan (anti-factor D)...Additionally, both anti-C5 and upstream inhibitors do not resolve the unmet need of pharmacodynamic BTH events due to complement amplifying conditions such as infections, traumas, and surgery.
