Pharmacology
Teriflunomide is an immunomodulatory agent with anti-inflammatory properties that inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, a mitochondrial enzyme required for de novo pyrimidine synthesis, which may reduce the number of activated lymphocytes in the CNS.
Siponimod is an S1P receptor modulator that binds with high affinity to S1P receptors 1 and 5, blocking lymphocyte egress from lymph nodes and reducing peripheral blood lymphocyte counts; the therapeutic mechanism in multiple sclerosis is unknown but may involve reduction of lymphocyte migration into the central nervous system.
