Mechanism of action

APP13007 is a selective prostaglandin F (FP) receptor agonist formulated as a 0.05% ophthalmic solution. It works by increasing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor from the eye, thereby lowering intraocular pressure. This mechanism is typical of prostaglandin analogs used in glaucoma management.
