Mirikizumab is a humanised IgG4 monoclonal, anti-interleukin-23 (anti-IL-23) antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of human IL-23 cytokine and inhibits its interaction with the IL-23 receptor. In humans, selective blockade of IL-23 was shown to normalise production of effector cytokines, including IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-22 that drive inflammatory disease. |
