Active Ingredient Description
Lebrikizumab

Lebrikizumab is an immunoglobulin (IgG4) monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to interleukin (IL)-13 and selectively inhibits IL-13 signalling through the IL-4 receptor alpha (IL-4RĪ±)/ IL-13 receptor alpha 1 (IL-13RĪ±1) heterodimer, thereby inhibiting the downstream effects of IL-13. Inhibition of IL-13 signalling is expected to be of benefit in diseases in which IL-13 is a key contributor to the disease pathogenesis. Lebrikizumab does not prevent the binding of IL-13 to the IL-13 receptor alpha 2 (IL-13RĪ±2 or decoy receptor), which allows the internalisation of IL-13 into the cell.
