Alexion is a global biopharmaceutical company that combines groundbreaking science with a steadfast commitment to meeting the needs of patients living with severe, life-threatening and often ultra-rare diseases. Alexion scientists are among the first in the world to unlock the therapeutic potential of inhibiting terminal complement, a group of proteins that play an important role in the body’s immune response and can destroy healthy tissue in certain patients. Alexion discovered and developed Soliris® (eculizumab), a first-in-class terminal complement inhibitor, approved in the United States, Canada, European Union, Australia, and Japan as a treatment for patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Alexion is working urgently to investigate Soliris and additional biopharmaceuticals as treatments for patients with other rare and severe diseases, including cancer.
