About WHO906

OMS906 is an investigational humanized monoclonal antibody targeting mannan-binding lectin-associated serine protease-3 (MASP-3), the key activator of the alternative pathway of the complement system. The complement system plays a central role in inflammation and is activated following tissue damage or microbial infection. Responsible for the conversion of pro-complement factor D to complementary factor D, MASP-3 is considered the main target of the alternative pathway – it has the lowest native circulating level and low relative clearance compared to other proteins of the alternative pathway and, unlike C5 and C3 blockers, inhibition of MASP-3 leaves intact the lytic arm of the classical pathway, important for fighting infection. Furthermore, unlike other components of the alternative pathway, MASP-3 is not thought to be an acute phase reactant, which could confer a significant advantage to MASP-3 inhibitors, such as OMS906, by compared to other inhibitors of the alternative pathway. MASP-3 inhibitors are thought to have preventive and/or therapeutic effects on a wide range of diseases, including paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), atypical HUS, traumatic brain injury. , arthritis, wet age-related macular degeneration. , ischemia-reperfusion injury, transplantation-related complications, and other immune-related disorders.

About Omeros

Omeros is an innovative biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of small molecule and protein-based therapeutics for large-market and orphan indications targeting immunological disorders, including complement-mediated diseases, cancers and addictive and compulsive disorders. Narsoplimab, Omeros’ lead MASP-2 inhibitor, targets the complement lectin pathway and is the subject of a pending Biologics License Application with the FDA for the treatment of thrombotic microangiopathy associated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Omeros’ long-acting MASP-2 inhibitor, OMS1029, is currently in a multiple-ascending-dose Phase 1 clinical trial. OMS906, Omeros’ inhibitor of MASP-3, the key activator of the alternative complement pathway, is advancing toward Phase 3 clinical trials for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and complement 3 glomerulopathy. Funded by the Institute National Drug Abuse Control Agency, Omeros’ lead phosphodiesterase 7 inhibitor, OMS527, is in clinical development for the treatment of cocaine use disorders and, in addition, is being developed as a therapeutic for other addictions as well as for a major complication of treatment. for movement disorders. Omeros is also developing a broad portfolio of novel immuno-oncology programs including two cellular and three molecular platforms.
