Lanraplenib (also known as GS-9876; GS-SYK) is a highly selective and orally bioavailable Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (SYK) inhibitor with IC50 of 9.5 nM). It is currently under development by Gilead for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as RA. Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (SYK) mediates signaling in a range of hematopoietic cells involved in the initiation and progression of RA including B cells, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and osteoclasts. There is strong preclinical validation for SYK as a therapeutic target for RA based on cellular data and animal models of disease. Lanraplenib (GS-9876) inhibits SYK activity in platelets via the glycoprotein VI (GPVI) receptor without prolonging bleeding time (BT) in monkeys or humans. GS-9876 potently inhibits multiple cellular events implicated in RA pathogenesis and displays excellent in vivo efficacy in rat CIA models after once-daily dosing. GS-9876 has markedly improved selectivity over competitor SYK programs. These data support the development of GS-9876 in inflammatory diseases, with potential for an improved safety profile.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | With EC50 values of 24-51 nM, lambranplenib (GS-9876) suppresses anti-IgM-stimulated phosphorylation of AKT, BLNK, BTK, ERK, MEK, and PKCδ in B cells. Lanraplenib (GS-9876) suppresses B cell proliferation when combined with anti-IgM/anti-CD40 (EC50=108 nM), and it also inhibits anti-IgM-mediated CD69 and CD86 expression in B cells (EC50=112 nM and 164 nM). Lanraplenib (GS-9876) prevents IC stimulation in human macrophages. Lanraplenib (GS-9876) suppresses the release of human TNFα, IL-1β, and phospholipase Cγ2, as well as the phosphorylation of T cells caused by glycoprotein VI (GPVI) (EC50=121 nM and 9 nM)[1]. In whole blood, venous activation and aggregation are paired with subarterial collagen flow [2]. |

| Additional Infomation |
Lanraplenib is under investigation in clinical trial NCT03285711 (Safety and Efficacy of Filgotinib and Lanraplenib in Adults With Lupus Membranous Nephropathy (LMN)). Lanraplenib is an orally available inhibitor of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon oral administration, lanraplenib binds to and inhibits the activity of Syk. This inhibits B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling, which leads to the inhibition of B-cell activation, and prevents tumor cell activation, migration, adhesion and proliferation. Syk, a non-receptor cytoplasmic, BCR-associated tyrosine kinase, is expressed in hematopoietic tissues and is often overexpressed in hematopoietic malignancies; it plays a key role in B-cell receptor signaling. |

Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.
