Rozanolixizumab |
Rozanolixizumab is a humanised IgG4 monoclonal antibody that decreases serum IgG concentration by inhibiting the binding of IgG to FcRn, a receptor that under physiological conditions protects IgG from intracellular degradation and recycles IgG back to the cell surface. By the same mechanism, rozanolixizumab decreases the concentration of pathogenic IgG autoantibodies associated with generalised myasthenia gravis (gMG). |
