Pharmacology

TNF-alpha antagonist; adalimumab-adaz is a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors, also lysing surface TNF-expressing cells in vitro in the presence of complement.

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.
