Reslizumab is a humanised monoclonal antibody (IgG4, κ) against the human interleukin-5 (IL-5). Reslizumab binds specifically to IL-5 and interferes with IL-5 binding to its cell-surface receptor. IL-5 is a key cytokine responsible for the differentiation, maturation, recruitment and activation of human eosinophils. Reslizumab binds human IL-5 with picomolar affinity blocking its biological function; consequently survival and activity of eosinophils are reduced.
