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.
TNF-alpha blocker; adalimumab-bwwd 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.
