Active Ingredient Description
Tezepelumab

Tezepelumab is a monoclonal antibody (IgG2λ) directed against thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), preventing its interaction with the heterodimeric TSLP receptor. In asthma, both allergic and non-allergic triggers induce TSLP production. Blocking TSLP with tezepelumab reduces a broad spectrum of biomarkers and cytokines associated with airway inflammation; however, the mechanism of action of tezepelumab in asthma has not been definitively established.
