Comment: Zilucoplan (RA101495) is a synthetic, macrocyclic peptide that blocks the cleavage of complement C5 into C5a and C5b which occurs as a consequence of activation of the classical, alternative, or lectin pathways. This mechanism of action inhibits formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC). It was developed by RaPharma for the treatment of tissue-based complement-mediated disorders.
