Ensereptide (PXL01) is a polypeptide derived from human lactoferrin. PXL01 has several mechanisms of action; including immunomodulation and enhancement of fibrinolytic activity. PXL01 produces its immunomodulatory action by inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, IL-6 and Il-8 as well as TNF- α (tumor necrosis factor alpha). PXL01 also inhibits the local production of PAI-1 which is an important mediator of fibrinolysis. The anti-inflammatory properties combined with the modulation of fibrinolysis are assumed to account for the ability of the product candidate to prevent post-surgical adhesions and scar formation. Ensereptide (PXL01) is being developed by ProMore Pharma for the treatment of post-surgical adhesions and for prevention of dermal scarring after surgery or trauma.
