Background of CFZ533-hIgG1

Iscalimab is a fully human, CD40 pathway blocking, nondepleting monoclonal antibody being developed as an immunosuppressive agent. In subjects receiving 3 mg/kg iscalimab, antibody responses to keyhole limpet hemocyanin were transiently suppressed. CD40 occupancy by iscalimab prevented ex vivo human rCD154-induced expression of CD69 on B cells in whole blood. All doses were generally safe and well tolerated, with no clinically relevant changes in any safety parameters, including no evidence of thromboembolic events. Iscalimab appears to be a promising blocker of the CD40-CD154 costimulatory pathway with potential use in transplantation and other autoimmune diseases.
