Comment: Pateclizumab is a humanized anti-lymphotoxin alpha (LTA) monoclonal antibody that is being investigated for anti-inflammatory potential. Peptide sequences for the heavy and light chains of pateclizumab are 100% matches to sequences 106 and 107 that are claimed in Genentech's patent US7923011B2 [1]. Sequences 106 and 107 identify pateclizumab as antibody 2C8.vX as defined in the patent.
Immunopharmacology Comments
Pateclizumab failed to produce significant clinical efficacy in RA patients after 12 weeks of treatment [4], whilst the head-to-head comparator adalimumab did provide clinical benefit in line with previously published results.
The role of LTA in RA is reviewed by Hirose et al. (2018) [3].
