DrugBank MoA: CYT007-TNFQb is designed to instruct the patient’s immune system to produce an anti-TNF-α antibody response. The induced antibodies aim to bind and neutrolize soluble TNF-α in order to inhibit its inflammatory activity. That way, the subsequent inflammatory process should be slowed down and the deterioration of skin or other tissues reduced.
Targets: Tumor necrosis factor
Inclusion Criteria: Therapeutic strategy associated
