| Description | Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is an important cytokine with roles in immune cell proliferation/differentiation, energy and bone metabolism, and the acute phase response of the innate immune system. IL-6 pathway dysregulation is associated with chronic inflammation and lymphoproliferation, including in autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, Castleman disease, and cytokine release syndrome. Targeting IL-6 function can be achieved directly, or through interrupting the IL-6 receptor or gp130 receptor axes.[A241185, A241175] Olokizumab is a humanized anti-IL-6 IgG4 |
| Indication/Disease | NA |
| Pharmacodynamics | NA |
| Mechanism of Action | Interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays a role in numerous autoimmune diseases by perpetuating tissue damage and inflammation. IL-6 acts as an essential differentiation factor for TH17 cells, which, when activated through dendritic cells displaying antigen-specific signals, induce tissue damage and act pathogenically. IL-6 also functions in B cell differentiation and development, including in the production of pathogenic autoantibodies. Combined with other roles for IL-6 in cell proliferation and differentiation, these mechanisms underly the importance of IL-6 in a variety of autoimmune conditions.[A241185, A241175] IL-6 signalling involves a corresponding IL-6 receptor (IL-6R/gp80/CD126) and a co-receptor gp130 (CD130).[A241185] Complex assembly is thought to involve binding of IL-6 to gp80 at Site 1 followed by binding to gp130 at Site 2 to form a heterotrimer; two heterotrimers then combine through Site 3 on IL-6 binding to domain 1 of gp130. The resulting heterohexameric complex is responsible for signal transduction.[A241175] Curiously, although IL-6R is typically membrane-bound, it can also exist in a soluble form (sIL-6R) through limited proteolysis or alternative splicing. This leads to three distinct signalling paradigms: classic signalling, where IL-6R and gp130 exist within the same cell membrane, _trans_-signalling, where sIL-6R interacts with membrane-bound gp130, and _trans_-presentation, where IL-6R from one cell forms a complex with gp130 on a different cell. It is thought that _trans_-signalling is responsible for the majority of IL-6-associated pathology.[A241185, A241175] Olokizumab is a humanized anti-IL-6 IgG4 |

| Absorption | Olokizumab administered as a single escalating subcutaneous dose in healthy volunteers had a Cmax between 2.99 ± 0.271 and 22.3 ± 4.48 µg/mL for doses between 0.3 and 3.0 mg/kg. The maximum concentration was achieved at a median of between 120 and 336 hours. The corresponding AUC0-t and AUC0-8 ranges were 2,704 ± 886 to 24,723 ± 2,145 and 2,988 ± 1,124 to 30,444 ± 4,913 µg |
| When administered either intravenously or subcutaneously to healthy volunteers, olokizumab has a volume of distribution between 5.59-9.71 L.[A241195] | |
| Clearance | When administered either intravenously or subcutaneously to healthy volunteers, olokizumab has a clearance of 0.116-0.204 L/day.[A241195] |

| When administered either intravenously or subcutaneously to healthy volunteers, olokizumab has a volume of distribution between 5.59-9.71 L.[A241195] | |
| Clearance | When administered either intravenously or subcutaneously to healthy volunteers, olokizumab has a clearance of 0.116-0.204 L/day.[A241195] |

| Description | Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is an important cytokine with roles in immune cell proliferation/differentiation, energy and bone metabolism, and the acute phase response of the innate immune system. IL-6 pathway dysregulation is associated with chronic inflammation and lymphoproliferation, including in autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, Castleman disease, and cytokine release syndrome. Targeting IL-6 function can be achieved directly, or through interrupting the IL-6 receptor or gp130 receptor axes.[A241185, A241175] Olokizumab is a humanized anti-IL-6 IgG4 |

| Mechanism of Action | Interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays a role in numerous autoimmune diseases by perpetuating tissue damage and inflammation. IL-6 acts as an essential differentiation factor for TH17 cells, which, when activated through dendritic cells displaying antigen-specific signals, induce tissue damage and act pathogenically. IL-6 also functions in B cell differentiation and development, including in the production of pathogenic autoantibodies. Combined with other roles for IL-6 in cell proliferation and differentiation, these mechanisms underly the importance of IL-6 in a variety of autoimmune conditions.[A241185, A241175] IL-6 signalling involves a corresponding IL-6 receptor (IL-6R/gp80/CD126) and a co-receptor gp130 (CD130).[A241185] Complex assembly is thought to involve binding of IL-6 to gp80 at Site 1 followed by binding to gp130 at Site 2 to form a heterotrimer; two heterotrimers then combine through Site 3 on IL-6 binding to domain 1 of gp130. The resulting heterohexameric complex is responsible for signal transduction.[A241175] Curiously, although IL-6R is typically membrane-bound, it can also exist in a soluble form (sIL-6R) through limited proteolysis or alternative splicing. This leads to three distinct signalling paradigms: classic signalling, where IL-6R and gp130 exist within the same cell membrane, _trans_-signalling, where sIL-6R interacts with membrane-bound gp130, and _trans_-presentation, where IL-6R from one cell forms a complex with gp130 on a different cell. It is thought that _trans_-signalling is responsible for the majority of IL-6-associated pathology.[A241185, A241175] Olokizumab is a humanized anti-IL-6 IgG4 |
