How Traficet-EN works
Traficet-EN, a small molecule, orally-available drug, is intended to control the inappropriate immune system response underlying IBD by blocking the activity of the CCR9 chemokine receptor. In adults, CCR9 is a highly specific receptor expressed by T cells that migrate selectively to the digestive tract. The trafficking of T cells to the small and large intestine causes persistent inflammation that may result in Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis - the two principal forms of IBD.
