Alirocumab works by inhibiting the PCSK9 protein. PCSK9 binds to the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) (which takes cholesterol out of circulation), and that binding leads to the receptor being degraded, and less LDL cholesterol being removed from circulation. Inhibiting PCSK9 prevents the receptor from being degraded, and promotes removal of LDL cholesterol from circulation. After subcutaneous administration of alirocumab, maximal suppression of free PCSK9 occurs within 4 to 8 hours and has an apparent half-life of 17 to 20 days. Inhibition is dose-dependent. The antibody is distributed through the circulation, and it is eliminated at low concentrations by binding to its target, and at higher concentrations through a proteolytic pathway.

| NNC0385-0434
NNC0385-0434 is a peptide based on the epidermal growth-factor-like domain A of the human LDLR peptide. NNC0385-0434 competitively binds free PCSK9 and subsequently prevents PCSK9 binding to the LDLR. NNC0385-0434 is an orally active peptide small molecule PCSK9 inhibitor for atherosclerosis-related studies. |
