Emixustat (formerly ACU-4429) is a nonretinoid compound with a unique mode of action in the retinal pigment epithelium, where it modulates the biosynthesis of visual chromophore through its effect on retinal pigment epithelium protein 65 (RPE65). Emixustat modulates the visual cycle by inhibiting a critical enzyme of this pathway RPE65. Acucela Inc., a Kubota Pharmaceutical company, is developing emixustat for the treatment of Stargardt disease and proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
