lerodalcibep is an approved drug
Compound class: Peptide
Comment: Lerodalcibep (LIB003) is a small protein that fuses an adnectin (designed to bind proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 [PCSK9]) to human serum albumin to achieve an extended circulating half-life and ambient storage stability [3]. It behaves as a proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor [1,4-6].
