Pharmacology
Brodalumab is a human monoclonal IgG2 antibody that selectively binds to IL-17RA and inhibits its interactions with IL-17 family cytokines (IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-17C, IL-17A/F heterodimer, IL-25), thereby blocking IL-17 cytokine-induced pro-inflammatory responses.
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.
