Enhanced immunocompatibility and hemocompatibility of nanomedicines across multiple species using complement pathway inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: The activation of complement by nanomedicines triggers immune uptake and proinflammatory responses. Complement pathway inhibitors could offer strategies to address these challenges. Here, we assess the efficacy of inhibitors with various nanoparticles, including dextran superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoworms, polyethylene glycol (PEG) liposomal drugs, and mRNA lipid nanoparticles. In human sera, inhibitors of the alternative pathway iptacopan and danicopan exhibit variable efficacies, ranging from high nanomolar to incomplete inhibition. However, both iptacopan and danicopan display poor efficacy with PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin. Sutimlimab, an inhibitor of the classical pathway, demonstrates poor efficacy with PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin, even in sera with anti-PEG antibodies. Ipt
