RIPK1 inhibition has therapeutic potential in treating autoimmune, inflammatory, and neurodegenerative disorders. Ocadusertib (previously LY3871801/R552), an oral, potent, and selective inhibitor of RIPK1, is being developed for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, and brain penetrating RIPK1 inhibitors for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. In preclinical studies, R552 demonstrated prevention of joint and skin inflammation in a RIPK1-mediated murine model of inflammation and tissue damage.
