FG-4592 represents one of several next generation PHI that has been optimized for multiple pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters related to erythropoiesis, including selective inhibition of HIF prolyl and asparaginyl hydroxylases, potency, iron utilization, and ADME. FG-4592 represents one of several next generation HIF-PH inhibitors designed to selectively induce the expression of genes that mediate erythropoiesis for the treatment of anemia.

How Roxadustat works
FG-4592 is an orally active second generation HIF-PH inhibitor. Preclinical studies show that FG-4592 increases production of endogenous erythropoietin (EPO), increases iron mobilization and utilization, and overcomes the suppressive effects of inflammation on red blood cell production.
