Brensocatib is a competitive and reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1). DPP1 activates pro-inflammatory neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) during neutrophil maturation in the bone marrow. Brensocatib reduces the activity of NSPs implicated in the pathogenesis of bronchiectasis, including neutrophil elastase, cathepsin G and proteinase 3. |
