YUVIWEL for injection contains navepegritide, a C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) analog. Navepegritide is a prodrug of active CNP consisting of a CNP moiety transiently conjugated to two branched 20 kDa methoxy polyethylene glycol (mPEG) moieties via a proprietary TransCon Linker. The amino acid sequence of the CNP moiety is identical to the 38 amino acid sequence of residues 89-126 of human CNP. The structural formula of navepegritide is as follows:
The molecular formula is C231H386N64O67S5 + 4 × (C2H4O)n, where n is between 200 and 250. The average molecular weight is approximately 45 kDa.
YUVIWEL is provided as a sterile, lyophilized white to off-white powder for reconstitution to a colorless solution with Sterile Water for Injection, USP (diluent). The diluent for reconstitution of YUVIWEL is provided in a prefilled syringe.
The compositions of YUVIWEL are shown in Table 3.
