VEOPOZ

POZELIMAB-BBFG Complement Inhibitors
Approved 2023-08-18

VEOPOZ (pozelimab-bbfg) is a complement inhibitor indicated for the treatment of CD55-deficient protein-losing enteropathy (PLE), also known as CHAPLE disease. The medication is approved for use in both adult and pediatric patients who are one year of age and older. It serves as a targeted therapeutic for managing the manifestations of this specific complement-mediated condition.

How VEOPOZ Works

Pozelimab-bbfg is a human monoclonal antibody that targets the terminal complement protein C5. By binding to C5, the drug blocks its cleavage into the fragments C5a and C5b, which inhibits the activation of the terminal complement pathway. This process prevents the formation of the membrane-attack complex, a structure that would otherwise mediate cell lysis.
