How Clenoliximab works
Clenoliximab is a macaque-human chimeric monoclonal antibody (immunoglobulin G4)that binds specifically to the CD4 receptor present on T-lympocytes (Helper T lymphocytes). CD-4 lymphocytes are implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Clenoliximab coats the CD4 T-lymphocytes and thus down-modulates the CD4 T-lympocytes in a dose and concentration-dependent manner without decreasing the amount of CD4 T-lympocytes in circulation.
