The company's established product portfolio features ULTOMIRIS (ALXN1210/ravulizumab-cwvz), a C5 inhibitor approved for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Another key offering is SOLIRIS (eculizumab), a monoclonal antibody addressing a broader range of conditions including PNH, aHUS, generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Beyond these, the company markets Strensiq (asfotase alfa), a specialized enzyme replacement therapy for individuals with hypophosphatasia, and Kanuma (sebelipase alfa), indicated for lysosomal acid lipase deficiency. Alexion also maintains a robust development pipeline, featuring several promising candidates: Phase III clinical trials: ALXN1210 (intravenous formulation) for gMG and NMOSD; ALXN1210 (subcutaneous formulation) for PNH and aHUS; and ALXN1840 (WTX101) for Wilson disease. Phase I clinical trials: ALXN1810 (subcutaneous) targeting renal diseases; ALXN1720 (subcutaneous) for conditions characterized by dysregulated terminal complement activity; and ALXN1830 and ABY-039, both focused on the neonatal Fc receptor pathway. The company distributes its therapies to a broad network of healthcare stakeholders, including distributors, pharmacies, hospitals, and hospital buying groups, reaching patients both within the United States and across international markets. To bolster its research and development efforts and expand its reach, Alexion engages in various strategic alliances and collaborations.
