Immunopharmacology Comments
IL2RA is a ligand binding component of the IL-2R complex. This subunit is the molecular target of the approved biologics daclizumab (including daclizumab beta) and basiliximab. Another anti-CD25 mAb, inolimomab, has received orphan drug designation from the EMA, for the treatment of graft-versus-host disease. Phase 3 findings for this drug and indication are reported in [2], the major conclusion being that the primary end point for the trial was not met (no statistical difference between the inolimomab and normal standard of care arms of the study).
