Pharmacodynamics

Galiximab is a monoclonal antibody that is being studied in the treatment of follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies are made in the laboratory and can locate and bind to cancer cells. Galiximab binds to the protein CD80, which is found on certain normal and cancerous white blood cells.

Mechanism of action

Galiximab, an IgG(1) anti-CD80 antibody, binds to CD80, a costimulatory molecule involved in T-cell activation. Reduction in lesional, activated T cells induces improvement in psoriatic plaques.
