What is Apilimod?

Apilimod is an oral small-molecule inhibitor of the lipid kinase PIKfyve, supplied as apilimod dimesylate capsules. By inhibiting PIKfyve it disrupts PIKfyve-mediated signaling and suppresses Toll-like receptor-induced production of IL-12 and IL-23. It is being studied in COVID-19 and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
