FDA Approves Oxlumo (lumasiran) for the Treatment of Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1

The Pharma Data

Oxlumo works by degrading HAO1 messenger RNA and reducing the synthesis of GO, which inhibits hepatic production of oxalate – the toxic metabolite responsible for the clinical manifestations of PH1. HAO1 encodes glycolate oxidase (GO), an enzyme upstream of the disease-causing defect in PH1.
