BTL.010 is a novel human serine proteinase inhibitor of the Kunitz family that exhibits greater potency towards neutral serine proteinases, particularly leukocyte elastase and proteinase 3 than towards trypsin-like proteinases. BTL.010, or variants thereof, may be employed as therapeutics in diseases such as emphysema, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, cystic fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, organ failure, and glomerulonephritis in which uncontrolled proteolysis due to neutral serine proteinase activity results in tissue damage.
