1
UNII K0N0Z40J3W - DIROXIMEL FUMARATE
 

Diroximel fumarate is indicated for the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). The mechanism by which diroximel fumarate exerts therapeutic effects in MS is not fully understood. Diroximel fumarate acts via the major active metabolite, monomethyl fumarate. Preclinical studies indicate that the pharmacodynamic responses of monomethyl fumarate appears to be mediated, at least in part, through activation of the Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) transcriptional pathway.
