Danicopan binds reversibly to complement factor D (FD) and acts as a selective inhibitor of FD function. By inhibiting FD, danicopan selectively blocks the activation of complement alternative pathway (AP), leading to prevention of the production of multiple effectors, that include C3 fragments, after AP activation. The 2 other complement pathways (classical and lectin) remain active. It is used for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.
