Pharmacology
Mirikizumab-mrkz is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of IL-23, inhibiting its interaction with the IL-23 receptor and suppressing downstream pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine release involved in mucosal inflammation.
Guselkumab is a human monoclonal IgG1 lambda antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of interleukin-23 (IL-23) and inhibits its interaction with the IL-23 receptor, thereby inhibiting the release of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines.
