Ftivazid (FTIVAZIDE)

Phase 2 active Small molecule

Ftivazid (generic name: FTIVAZIDE) is a ftivazide drug. It is currently in Phase 2 development for Tuberculosis.

Ftivazid works by inhibiting the activity of myeloperoxidase, an enzyme that contributes to the development of tuberculosis.

Ftivazid (FTIVAZIDE) is a small molecule drug developed to target myeloperoxidase, a key enzyme involved in the pathogenesis of tuberculosis. It is classified as a ftivazide and has been approved for the treatment of tuberculosis. The commercial status of ftivazid is currently unknown, and it is not clear if it is patented or available as a generic medication. Further information on its pharmacokinetic properties, such as half-life and bioavailability, is also not available. As a result, key safety considerations and potential side effects are not well established.

Likelihood of approval
17.3% vs 15.3% industry baseline
If approved by FDA: likely 2031–2034
Steps remaining: Phase 3 → NDA/BLA submission
Confidence: Medium
Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 2 → approval rate +15.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 2 drugs reach approval ~15.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
  • Anti-infectives pathway favourability +2.0pp
    Microbiological endpoints + non-inferiority designs raise approval rates above baseline.
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2031–2034
EMA EU 2032–2035 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2032–2035 +0.7 yr

Mechanism of action

Think of myeloperoxidase like a fire starter in your body. When it's working properly, it helps fight off infections. But in the case of tuberculosis, this enzyme can actually make the infection worse. Ftivazid helps by putting the brakes on myeloperoxidase, which can help reduce the severity of the infection.
