Thymopoietin Pentapeptide (THYMOPENTIN)

Phase 3 active Recombinant protein ✓ Verified May 2026

Thymopoietin Pentapeptide (generic name: THYMOPENTIN) is a thymopentin drug. It is currently in Phase 3 development.

Thymopentin works by mimicking the action of a natural hormone that helps regulate the immune system.

Thymopoietin Pentapeptide, also known as Thymopentin, is a small molecule with a modality of a small molecule. It has been studied in clinical trials for conditions such as HIV Infections, Safety Issues, and Tolerance.

Likelihood of approval
59.3% vs 58.3% industry baseline
If approved by FDA: likely 2028–2030
Steps remaining: NDA/BLA submission
Confidence: High
Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 3 → approval rate +58.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 3 drugs reach approval ~58.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
  • Immunology slight uplift +1.0pp
    Mature endpoint landscape (ACR, DAS28, PASI) makes immunology approvals slightly more predictable.
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2028–2030
EMA EU 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
Health Canada CA 2029–2032 +0.9 yr
TGA AU 2029–2032 +1.2 yr
PMDA JP 2029–2032 +1.5 yr
NMPA CN 2030–2033 +2.3 yr
MFDS KR 2029–2032 +1.4 yr
CDSCO IN 2029–2033 +1.8 yr
ANVISA BR 2030–2033 +2.3 yr

Hover any row for the lag rationale. Lag estimates are reduced when the drug has FDA Breakthrough or EMA PRIME designation (sponsors file globally in parallel).
