PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Ponesimod is a selective sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 modulator indicated in the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis in adults. Ponesimod was developed out of a need for a more selective modulator of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 than [fingolimod]. Fingolimod's activity at sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 3 was suspected to be responsible for a portion of it's adverse effects, and so more selective modulators were developed. Ponesimod was granted FDA approval on 18 March 2021.
