Description

Sparsentan (RE-021; BMS-346567; PS433540; DARA-a) is a novel candidate in development by Retrophin for the treatment of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a serious kidney disorder that often leads to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Sparsentan is a single molecule with antagonism of the endothelin type A receptor (ETAR) and the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R). Sparsentan has high affinity for both the ETAR (Ki= 12.8 nM) and the AT1R (Ki=0.36 nM), and greater than 500-fold selectivity for these receptors over the endothelin type B and angiotensin II subtype 2 receptors. Endothelin-1 and angiotensin II are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of IgAN via the ETAR and AT1R, respectively. The US Food and Drug Administration gave accelerated approval on February 17 2023 to sparsentan (Filspari), the first non-immunosuppressive therapy labeled for treating adults with primary immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Initiate treatment with FILSPARI at 200 mg orally once daily. After 14 days, increase to the recommended dose of 400 mg once daily, as tolerated. When resuming treatment with FILSPARI after an interruption, consider titration of FILSPARI, starting at 200 mg once daily. After 14 days, increase to the recommended dose of 400 mg once daily
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
Sparsentan is a highly potent dual angiotensin II and endothelin A receptor antagonist with Kis of 0.8 and 9.3 nM, respectively.
