Pharmacology
Tildrakizumab is a humanized IgG1/k monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of IL-23 and inhibits its interaction with the IL-23 receptor, thereby suppressing the release of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines.
Adalimumab-afzb is a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody TNF-alpha blocker that binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors, reducing inflammation and modulating TNF-induced biological responses including leukocyte migration.
