ilaprazole is an approved drug (South Korea, China)
Compound class:
Synthetic organic
Comment: Ilaprazole (IY-81149) is an irreversible proton pump inhibitor (PPI) [2]. It is a prodrug that is converted to an active sulfenamide form that binds to cysteine sulfhydryl groups on the proton pump H+/K+ ATPase of gastric parietal cells, and thereby inhibits gastric acid secretion [5].
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Summary of Clinical Use ![]() |
Ilaprazole is available in south Korea, China, Mexico and India as treatment for dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease and duodenal ulcer [1,4]. It has not yet received US FDA or EMA authorisations (October 2019). Click here to link to ClinicalTrials.gov's full list of ilaprazole studies. |
Pharmacokinetics ![]() |
Biotransformation/Metabolism |
Predictions based on results using human liver microsomes indicate minimal risk of ilaprazole drug-drug interaction via CYP3A4 inhibition/induction when co-administered with other drugs [3]. |
Elimination |
Non-enzymatic sulfoxide reduction is the major metabolic clearance pathway of ilaprazole in humans [3]. |
