Iron Chelating Agent SP-420 is an orally bioavailable iron-chelating agent and derivative of desferrithiocin, with iron chelating and protective activities in diseases of iron overload. Upon oral administration, the iron chelating agent SP-420 targets, binds to and chelates free iron. This induces the excretion of iron, prevents iron accumulation and prevents cellular and/or tissue damage associated with iron overload.
