Ustekinumab is a human immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 kappa monoclonal antibody directed against interleukin(IL)-12 and IL-23, which are cytokines that are involved in immune and inflammatory responses. It was generated via recombinant human IL-12 immunization of human Ig (hu-Ig) transgenic mice. It is a targeted biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (bDMARDs) that is used in the management of various inflammatory conditions that involve the activation of IL-12 and IL-23 signalling pathways. The therapeutic use of the drug started in Canada, the US, and Europe since 2009 when it was first approved for the treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis and active psoriatic arthritis, alone or in combination with [methotrexate]. In September 2016, ustekinumab was additionally approved for the management of moderate to severe Crohn's disease
Secukinumab is a fully human monoclonal IgG1/κ antibody against interleukin-17A (IL-17A), a proinflammatory cytokine implicated in various chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorders, such as plaque psoriasis. By blocking the actions of IL-17A, secukinumab works to inhibit the pro-inflammatory pathways that drive immune-mediated inflammatory disorders. Following its first global approval in Japan in December 2014, secukinumab was approved by the European Commission on January 15, 2015, and by the FDA a few days after (January 21, 2015). It is currently approved to treat a number of chronic inflammatory conditions, such as plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and hidradenitis suppurativa.[L39600,L42280,L48771]
