Elated to see our 2nd gen compstatin-based C3 inhibitor find its way to patients with GA, an inflammatory ocular disease with such a huge burden! Remarkable news and a great thrust to continue improving compstatins!

Translating research results into tangible therapies that can change patients' lives to the better....is at the core of our research endeavors. So glad to have been able to witness the full-fledged transformation of compstatins from therapeutic leads to clinically approved

The first heart #xenotransplantation is a game-changer! Back in 1999 we showed with Tom Mollnes that #compstatins can block hyperacute #rejection prolonging survival of perfused pig #xenograft Later on this effect was recapitulated in pig hearts w/ Cp40! https://t.co/pdqQFfqoi6

The long history of compstatins in this space starts back in 2006 when analog 4(1MeW)7W (Cp05) was licensed by the University of Pennsylvania to Potentia (now Apellis) for clinical development in both dry and neovascular AMD See also this video for more:

A huge milestone for C3-targeted therapy that vindicates the science we invested behind the discovery of compstatins Proud that a 2nd generation #compstatin analog has shown efficacy and superiority over Soliris in PNH patients" This is exciting news for complement therapeutics!

@TrendsinPharma The approval of #pegcetacoplan, a 2nd gen compstatin-based C3 inhibitor in 2021 serves as critical validation of C3-targeted treatment. This review traces the #evolution of compstatins from their academic 'roots' to the clinic and highlights current and future clinical directions

We greatly appreciate @NIH's support, our "Gold" sponsor since 1990s, which made the development of #compstatins possible. Stay tuned as the compstatin family grows.

Basic @NIH-funded research has led to the development of many new drugs. For example, in the 1990s, NIH-supported research on the #complement system, part of the #ImmuneSystem, led to the discovery of #compstatin, a compound that inhibits a key complement protein called C3.
