Bio-Rad, HCA204P, Adalimumab antibody | AbD18655_hIgG1

Human Anti-Adalimumab, clone AbD18655_hIgG1 , is an ultra-high affinity anti-idiotypic antibody that specifically recognizes adalimumab monoclonal antibody and inhibits the binding of adalimumab to its target, TNFα. Clone AbD18655_hIgG1 can be used to measure the levels of adalimumab and biosimilar products using bioanalytical assays. It may also be used to develop and calibrate immune response assays to measure the anti-drug antibody (ADA) response in patient serum. Adalimumab (branded as Humira) is a fully human monoclonal antibody (IgG1/kappa) approved for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn’s disease, psoriasis and several forms of arthritis. The antibody is specific for TNFα, and acts by blocking the activation of TNF receptors by TNFα. This inactivation down-regulates the inflammatory reactions associated with autoimmune diseases.
