Immune Support Peptides
Peptides studied for immune system modulation.
Efzofitimod
Medium EvidenceA first-in-class, intravenous immunomodulatory fusion peptide derived from histidyl-tRNA synthetase that selectively binds neuropilin-2 (NRP2) to dampen inflammation in the lung; in Phase 3 development for pulmonary sarcoidosis, an interstitial lung disease.
Epithalon
Low EvidenceA tetrapeptide studied for its potential to activate telomerase and influence biological aging markers.
Icotrokinra (ICOTYDE)
High EvidenceThe first FDA-approved targeted oral macrocyclic peptide — an IL-23 receptor antagonist for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, marking a new era for oral peptide therapeutics.
KPV
Medium EvidenceA tripeptide derived from alpha-MSH, studied for anti-inflammatory and gut-protective properties.
Larazotide
Medium EvidenceA synthetic peptide tight junction regulator in clinical trials for celiac disease, designed to prevent intestinal permeability caused by gluten exposure.
LL-37
Medium EvidenceA human antimicrobial peptide studied for innate immunity, wound healing, and biofilm disruption.
Pegcetacoplan
High EvidenceA PEGylated cyclic-peptide inhibitor of complement component 3 (C3) built from two compstatin (Cp05) peptide domains bridged by a 40-kDa PEG chain; marketed as Empaveli/Aspaveli (subcutaneous, for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and, since July 2025, C3 glomerulopathy and primary IC-MPGN) and Syfovre (intravitreal, for geographic atrophy in age-related macular degeneration). It is one of the few complement-targeting therapeutic peptides to reach the market.
Selank
Medium EvidenceA synthetic peptide analog of tuftsin studied for anxiolytic and nootropic properties.
Thymalin
Low EvidenceA thymic peptide preparation studied for immune system rejuvenation and age-related immune decline.
Thymosin Alpha-1
High EvidenceA thymic peptide approved in some countries for immune modulation, studied for viral infections and cancer adjunct therapy.
VIP
Medium EvidenceA neuropeptide with broad neuroimmune functions, studied for inflammatory conditions and nerve repair.
