Products and Services
- PYRUKYND (mitapivat): An innovative activator of both wild-type and mutant forms of the pyruvate kinase (PK) enzyme. This flagship product by Agios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is designed for the treatment of hemolytic anemias, a group of disorders characterized by the premature destruction of red blood cells, leading to a deficiency in healthy red blood cells in the body. Mitapivat has shown promise in addressing the underlying metabolic dysfunctions found in these conditions.
- AG-946: Another PK activator in the company’s robust pipeline, AG-946 is currently being developed as a potential therapeutic option for patients with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and hemolytic anemias. By targeting PK, this compound aims to correct metabolic irregularities that contribute to the pathology of these disorders, offering hope for improved treatments.
- AG-181: A phenylalanine hydroxylase stabilizer being explored for its potential in treating phenylketonuria (PKU). PKU is a metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase, leading to high levels of phenylalanine in the blood, which can result in a variety of health problems. AG-181 aims to stabilize the enzyme, thereby reducing phenylalanine levels and mitigating the symptoms associated with PKU.
- siRNA Therapy for Polycythemia Vera: In its preclinical development stage, Agios is also investigating a small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapy targeting polycythemia vera, a rare blood disorder characterized by an overproduction of red blood cells. This innovative approach aims to silence specific gene expressions, offering a novel therapeutic pathway for managing this condition.
