Cytokine dysregulation plays a key role in the development of autoimmune diseases. Anti-cytokine monoclonal antibodies (e.g. anti-TNF alpha, anti-IL-6 and anti-IL-17) have been developed as effective treatments for these diseases. Recent advances in translational medicines have revealed new roles for cytokines in causing several devastating immunological diseases including graft-versus-host disease and macrophage activation syndrome. Selecting targets from clinical observations like these, and utilizing our proprietary human single B cell cloning technology platform, Elixiron is developing originally human anti-cytokine antibodies as innovative therapeutics for autoimmune and inflammatory disease.
