Afimetoran

Afimetoran (BMS-986256) is an orally active, selective, and highly bioavailable TLR7/8 antagonist. Afimetoran (BMS-986256) can inhibit TLR7/8 activation of the NF-κB pathway and reverse TLR7 mediated resistance to steroid induced apoptosis in plasma cell like dendritic cells (pDCs). Afimetoran (BMS-986256) can be used for research on inflammation and autoimmune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus).
