Apremilast, also known as CC-10004, is a thalidomide analog and is an orally available small molecule inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4). Apremilast specifically inhibits PDE4 and inhibits spontaneous production of TNF-alpha from human rheumatoid synovial cells. It has anti-inflammatory activity. Apremilast was approved by the USFDA in March 2014 for treatment of adults with active psoriatic arthritis. It is also being tested for its efficacy in treating other chronic inflammatory diseases such as ankylosing spondylitis, Behcet's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis.
