Infliximab Understanding

Infliximab: Overview

Infliximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody, sold under the brand name Remicade among others, is a medication used to treat a number of autoimmune diseases. This includes Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and Behçet's disease. Infliximab is produced by a recombinant cell line cultured by continuous perfusion. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a key proinflammatory cytokine involved in chronic inflammatory diseases. Its hyperactivity and enhanced signalling pathways can be observed in inflammatory diseases where it activates further pro-inflammatory cascades. By binding to both the soluble subunit and the membrane-bound precursor of TNF-α 1, infliximab disrupts the interaction of TNF-α with its receptors and may also cause lysis of cells that produce TNF-α 1

Infliximab Biosimilars: Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Infliximab report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including marketed, phase III, II, I and preclinical. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Infliximab Biosimilars: Marketed Drugs
• Inflectra: Celltrion/Pfizer

Inflectra will be the first biosimilar monoclonal antibody (mAb) and only the second biosimilar to be available in the U.S. It is approved for the treatment of:adult patients and pediatric patients (ages six years and older) with moderate to severely active Crohn’s disease who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy;adult patients with moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy; andmmoderate to severely active rheumatoid arthritis in combination with methotrexate; active ankylosing spondylitis; active psoriatic arthritis; and chronic severe plaque psoriasis.
• Renflexis: Merck

Renflexis is a prescription medicine that treats the following autoimmune diseases:

Crohn’s Disease (moderately to severely active): Can reduce signs and symptoms and induce and maintain remission in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease who haven't responded well to other therapies

Pediatric Crohn’s Disease (moderately to severely active): Can reduce signs and symptoms and induce and maintain remission in children (ages 6–17) with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who haven't responded well to other therapies

Ulcerative Colitis (moderately to severely active): Can reduce signs and symptoms, induce and maintain remission, promote intestinal healing, and reduce or stop the need for steroids in adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who haven't responded well to other therapies

Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis (moderately to severely active): Can reduce signs and symptoms, induce and maintain remission, promote intestinal healing, and reduce or stop the need for steroids in children (ages 6–17) with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who haven't responded well to other therapies

Report Highlights
• The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence Infliximab R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve Infliximab.
• In July 2017, Merck had launched in the U.S. a biosimilar of Remicade (infliximab), the blockbuster immune-mediated inflammatory disorders treatment it markets outside the U.S., including Europe, while partner Janssen Biotech markets the drug stateside.
• In December 2017, Pfizer announced that the United States (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved IXIFI (PF-06438179, infliximab-qbtx), a chimeric human-murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) against tumor necrosis factor, as a biosimilar to Remicade (infliximab) for all eligible indications of the reference product. The FDA has approved IXIFI as a treatment for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, pediatric Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, and plaque psoriasis.
