Ramandeep Singh, Senior Consultant of Forecasting at DelveInsight, commented that as newer generations of complement inhibitors target different aspects of the complement cascade (e.g., proximal vs. terminal inhibition), the potential to develop more effective and safer treatments is growing.
Complement Inhibitors Market Analysis
- Complement inhibitor therapies are developed to control overactivation of the complement system, which plays a major role in several immune-mediated disorders.
- By precisely blocking specific elements of the complement cascade, these treatments help reduce inflammation, prevent tissue injury, and ease disease symptoms, providing a more focused strategy for disease management.
- Within this class, C5 inhibitors such as SOLIRIS and ULTOMIRIS remain the most widely established therapies.
- SOLIRIS was the first approved agent and works by blocking C5 activation, which prevents membrane attack complex (MAC) formation and reduces hemolysis and thrombotic complications in diseases such as Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria and Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome.
- ULTOMIRIS offers similar efficacy with longer dosing intervals, improving convenience and supporting better adherence.
- SYFOVRE is approved for the treatment of Geographic Atrophy, while EMPAVELI is indicated for Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria. Both therapies act by targeting abnormal complement activity that contributes to disease progression.
- Although treatment costs remain substantial, SOLIRIS and ULTOMIRIS continue to hold a strong presence in the PNH market because of their proven clinical benefit. Patient assistance initiatives such as Alexion OneSource also help expand treatment access.
- Ongoing research is increasingly directed toward inhibitors of upstream complement targets such as C1 and C3, to treat a broader range of conditions, including Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia and neuroinflammatory diseases.
- These next-generation therapies highlight a move toward precision modulation of the complement pathway, creating new possibilities for patients who previously had limited therapeutic choices.

Complement Inhibitors Competitive Landscape
Some of the complement inhibitors under development include ULTOMIRIS (ravulizumab) [AstraZeneca (Alexion Pharmaceuticals)], Sefaxersen (RG6299; IONIS-FB-LRx) (F. Hoffmann-La Roche/Ionis Pharmaceuticals), ARO-C3 (Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals), KP104 (Kira Pharmaceuticals), Pozelimab + Cemdisiran (Regeneron Pharmaceuticals), Ruxoprubart (NM8074) (NovelMed Therapeutics), Riliprubart (Sanofi), AMY-101 (Amyndas Pharmaceuticals), and others.
AstraZeneca’s ULTOMIRIS (ravulizumab) is an extended-duration monoclonal antibody designed to block the C5 protein within the terminal complement cascade, enabling rapid, complete, and durable complement inhibition. By acting on this pathway, ULTOMIRIS helps reduce excessive immune system activation that may otherwise harm healthy cells. The therapy is currently under investigation in the Phase III ICAN clinical trial for the treatment of IgAN. It is also covered by patent protection in key global markets, with expected expiry in the United States in 2035 (extendable to 2038), in the European Union through 2035 (with extensions to 2038–2040), and in Japan until 2038.
Roche and Ionis Pharmaceuticals are jointly developing Sefaxersen (RG6299; IONIS-FB-LRx), an antisense oligonucleotide designed to reduce complement factor B gene expression by targeting factor B mRNA. It is the first ASO aimed at selective complement pathway suppression in IgAN. In July 2022, Roche exercised its option to license IONIS-FB-LRx following positive Phase II results. Roche is now responsible for global development, regulatory, and commercialization activities and associated costs, excluding the open-label Phase II study in patients with IgAN, which remains under Ionis’ conduct and funding.
Omeros’ Zaltenibart (OMS906) is a humanized monoclonal antibody designed to inhibit mannan-binding lectin-associated serine protease-3 (MASP-3), a primary activator of the complement alternative pathway. This pathway plays a role in numerous diseases, including conditions addressed by approved and emerging alternative pathway inhibitors. Unlike C3 and C5 inhibitors, blocking MASP-3 does not disrupt the lytic function of the classical complement pathway, which remains essential for the body’s adaptive immune defense against infections.
In a single-ascending-dose Phase I trial involving healthy volunteers, the therapy demonstrated good tolerability with no notable safety concerns. The FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) to Zaltenibart (OMS906) for the treatment of Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria. At present, two open-label, multicenter clinical studies are underway to assess the drug in adult patients with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria.
NovelMed Therapeutics’ Ruxoprubart (NM8074) is an anti-Bb monoclonal antibody designed to selectively inhibit the alternative complement pathway while preserving the classical pathway, which remains essential for infection clearance. In a Phase I study involving 40 healthy volunteers, the therapy demonstrated a favorable safety profile, was well tolerated at all tested dose levels, and achieved complete inhibition of the alternative pathway, with longer inhibition durations observed at higher doses.
The drug is currently being evaluated in a Phase II trial in treatment-naive paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) patients, where early findings appear encouraging. Beyond PNH, Ruxoprubart may also have therapeutic potential in other diseases driven by dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorized Phase Ib/II clinical studies for PNH, C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G), atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), and most recently, ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV).
Sanofi’s investigational humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody, Riliprubart, is designed to selectively block activated C1s, a serine protease involved in the classical complement pathway. The therapy is currently in Phase III clinical development for treating Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP), particularly in patients who are refractory to standard of care (SoC) treatments or receiving Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIg) therapy.
The anticipated launch of these emerging therapies are poised to transform the complement inhibitors market landscape in the coming years. As these cutting-edge therapies continue to mature and gain regulatory approval, they are expected to reshape the complement inhibitors market landscape, offering new standards of care and unlocking opportunities for medical innovation and economic growth.

- In November 2025, Otsuka received FDA accelerated approval for VOYXACT (sibeprenlimab-szsi) for the reduction of proteinuria in adults with primary IgAN at risk for disease progression.
- In October 2025, Novartis’ FABHALTA (iptacopan) met the Phase III primary endpoint and slowed kidney function decline in patients with IgAN.
What are Complement Inhibitors?
Complement inhibitors are a class of therapeutic agents designed to regulate or block the activity of the complement system, a key component of the innate immune response that helps the body fight infections and clear damaged cells. While essential for normal immunity, uncontrolled or excessive complement activation can lead to inflammation, tissue injury, and the progression of various autoimmune, hematologic, renal, and neurological disorders. Complement inhibitors work by targeting specific proteins within the complement cascade, such as C1s, C3, C5, factor B, or factor D, to prevent downstream inflammatory responses and cell destruction. These therapies have emerged as an important treatment approach for diseases such as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), myasthenia gravis, geographic atrophy, and other complement-mediated conditions.
