3K3A-Activated Protein C (3K3A-APC) is an experimental drug for the treatment of stroke developed by ZZ Biotech.[1] It is also being assessed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.[2] It is the subject of RHAPSODY, a phase II trial to determine safety and tolerability.[3]
A phase III trial, RHAPSODY-2, to determine safety and efficacy for treatment of ischemic stroke, is planned.[4] However, on November 16, 2023, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) paused the start of the human trial of 3K3A-APC after an investigation by Science Magazine.[5]
The drug was designed to have more activity at protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) and less anticoagulative effect than activated protein C.[6]
