Pharmacology
Adalimumab-adbm is a TNF-alpha antagonist that binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors, modulating inflammatory responses and reducing concentrations of acute phase reactants such as CRP and ESR.
Infliximab-dyyb is a chimeric IgG1kappa monoclonal antibody TNF-alpha antagonist that neutralizes the biological activity of TNFalpha by binding with high affinity to soluble and transmembrane forms of TNFalpha, inhibiting receptor binding and downstream proinflammatory cytokine activity in RA, CD, UC, AS, PsA, and Ps.
