DESCRIPTION Ensifentrine (RPL-554) is an inhibitor of phosphodiesterases 3 and 4 (PDE3 and PDE4) . It has bronchodilatory action that is mediated by inhibition of PDE3 in airway smooth muscle that is associated with short-term improvement in lung function . Ensifentrine was developed for therapeutic potential in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) . It also also has anti-inflammatory effects in vitro (e.g. reducing TNFα release from human monocytes) and in vivo, likely through inhibtion of PDE4 expressed by inflammatory cells in the lungs . Ensifentrine is active when delivered orally or by inhalation (nebulised) .

COVID-19: A pilot study of ensifentrine in hospitalised COVID-19 patients was initiated in mid-late 2020, but by 2024 no results had been published.

FDA approval of ensifentrine in 2024 made this the first COPD inhalation drug with a new mechanism of action to reach the clinic in more than 20 years. (GtoPdb)
DESCRIPTION Ensifentrine (RPL-554) is an inhaled first-in-class dual inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) and PDE4 with IC50s of 0.4 nM and 1479 nM, respectively. Ensifentrine has bronchoprotective and anti-inflammatory activities. Ensifentrine can be used for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) research[1][2].
DESCRIPTION Ensifentrine (Ensifentrinum) is a PDE3/4 inhibitor, although its affinity for PDE3(IC50: 0.4 nM) is 3,440 times higher than that for PDE4(IC50: 1479 nM), that is under clinical development for the treatment of asthma and COPD and, potentially, cystic fibrosis.
