Mitapivat, sold under the brand name Pyrukynd, is a medication used to treat hemolytic anemia in those with pyruvate kinase deficiency.[1] It is approved in adults.[2] It is taken by mouth.[1]

Common side effects include trouble sleeping, back pain, nausea, and joint pain.[1][2] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[1] It is a pyruvate kinase activator.[1]

Mitapivat was approved for medical use in the United States and Europe in 2022.[1][2] In the United States 4 weeks of treatment costs about 27,000 USD as of 2022.[3] It is not commercially available in the United Kingdom as of 2022.[4]

Medical uses

Mitapivat is indicated for the treatment of hemolytic anemia in adults with pyruvate kinase deficiency.[1][5] It increases hemoglobin levels by 1.5 g/dL in 40% of people.[2]

Dosage

It is started at a dose of 5 mg twice per day.[1] It comes in 5, 20, and 50 mg tablets.[1]

Pharmacology

Mechanism of action

Mitapivat binds to and activates pyruvate kinase, thereby enhancing glycolytic pathway activity, improving adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels and reducing 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) levels.[6] Mutations in pyruvate kinase cause deficiency in pyruvate kinase which prevents adequate red blood cell (RBC) glycolysis, leading to a buildup of the upstream glycolytic intermediate 2,3-DPG and deficiency in the pyruvate kinase product ATP.[6][7]

Chemistry

It is taken as the sulfate hydrate salt.[1]

Society and culture

Legal status

On 15 September 2022, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a marketing authorization for the medicinal product Pyrukynd, intended for the treatment of an inherited condition called pyruvate kinase deficiency.[8] The applicant for this medicinal product is Agios Netherlands B.V.[8] Mitapivat was approved for medical use in the European Union in November 2022.[2]

Names

Mitapivat is the international nonproprietary name (INN).[9]
