ABOUT

Anti-human IL-5R - Benralizumab biosimilar - CAS #1044511-01-4

Anti-hIL-5R-hIgG1fut is a biosimilar antibody of Benralizumab, a human interleukin-5 receptor (IL-5R) antibody that blocks IL-5 signaling. This monoclonal antibody (mAb) specifically targets the alpha subunit of the IL-5R. Benralizumab, also known as MEDI-563, is FDA-approved for the treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA).

More details More details


Anti-hIL-5R-hIgG1fut comprises the variable region of Benralizumab and the afucosylated IgG1 constant region of Benralizumab for high effector functions. 

This mAb can be used together with HEK-Blue™ IL-5 cells for screening and neutralization assays to block IL-5 signaling induced by recombinant human IL-5 (see figure).

Details

Benralizumab is a humanized, afucosylated IgG1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) designed to target the alpha chain of the human interleukin 5 receptor (IL-5Rα), expressed on eosinophils and basophils1. IL-5 plays a critical role in the survival, proliferation, and activation of eosinophils, which contribute to airway inflammation and exacerbations in eosinophilic asthma2. In addition to inhibiting interleukin-5 signaling, Benralizumab leads to eosinophil apoptosis through ADCC1. Benralizumab is FDA-approved for the treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA)3
