Pharmacology
Golimumab is a human monoclonal antibody (TNF-alpha inhibitor) that binds to both the soluble and transmembrane bioactive forms of human TNF-alpha, preventing receptor binding and inhibiting TNF-alpha biological activity, a key mediator of articular inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.
TYK2 inhibitor; deucravacitinib binds the regulatory domain of TYK2, allosterically inhibiting receptor-mediated TYK2 activation and downstream STAT signaling via the JAK-STAT pathway.
