Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Vilobelimab (IFX-1) has advanced to clinical evaluation in difficult to treat inflammatory diseases [5-6,9].
SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, vilobelimab was entered into clinical trial, with the purpose of determining potential efficacy of blocking the C5a-C5aR1 axis to limit myeloid infiltration and prevent excessive lung inflammation in COVID-19 patients [2], and early results have been published which support advance to a higher powered Phase 3 study [11].
